"The job was just like any other. I worked most during peak season/holidays. I would load my truck up with anywhere from 65 packages to 185 packages getting the job done."
What do you like about working at FedEx?
"The paycheck, some benefits, med/dent/vision, once I'm out of the building I'm pretty much not bothered by management."
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"Really look at the company and positions as well as the possible career paths ahead of you. I'd suggest and recommend UPS for a long term career/future over FedEx. FedEx is built around an antiquated business model with profit margins that are too slim. Don't let the (often) higher starting pay fool you, you'll be making less than someone at UPS doing the same job in a few years as your raises are just north of pathetic."
What don't you like about working at FedEx?
"Every year more control over my job is taken away from me in order to screw customers, myself as an employee or otherwise make the company look good while doing the wrong thing for our business.When I started I was basically on my own after I left with my deliveries, I was TRUSTED and my manager backed me up when there was a question as to what I did/didn't do because I proved I was working hard. Over time that has been stripped away to the point where I can't do this or that and provide worse service to our customers. Being sabotaged by the company over and over as well as being overburdened with more work than I should have, and forced to fail the goals put on me, I stopped caring. Fedex wasn't backing me up OR trusting me so why should *I* care if I am providing poor service for our customers. When I tried to do the right thing for our customers I get called into the boss's office to be documented for it, or if I'm lucky, lectured that I can't do that anymore."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Focus on the supposed PSP, People Service Profit mantra we are told FedEx practices. Stop sabotaging employees and then blaming them for it. Actually think about the things we try to 'improve on', how they will affect things, our people, service, etc.Stop spending a dollar to save 1 cent."
