Pros

We were WFH for the last 4 years, but thats ending. My direct manager is a joy, and despite remote work, my team works really well together and supports each other

Cons

Health benefits are poor. Raises are not merit based, and dont match cost of living increases. Overtime can be mandatory and fedex isnt hiring enough workers to replace retirees and those who leave. The stress can be overwhelming to meet standards with little support from Corporate. They are integrating into “one ecr” and all remote workers are returning to office. The commute/gas money will negate the raise this year, which was already negated by health cost increases. Definitely keeping an eye out for a new opportunity after ten years in my chair here.

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
