Pluspunten

It is the only large cargo carrier in Memphis, Memphis does not have many competing jobs in this category.

Minpunten

FedEx does not provide adequate benefits to a majority of the employees. Some Workgroups do have adequate benefits. The executive management group has an excellent pay, retirement, and bonuses. There retirements benefits are outstanding, retirement pay, and retirement medical. As for the majority of employees the pay is inadequate, the health insurance is sold to the employees for a high price with very poor coverage. The traditional pension plan was discontinued, and frozen. They have a very inadequate cash Pension Plan that will pay a minimum token amount when the employee leaves after 20 years. It is based on your salary and time in service, and applied to a company account every three months with a interest rate of 1% every three months. That ADDS up to 4% the year, and you do not control the money in the account. It is controlled by the company. Many of the retirees are struggling with the health insurance. The retirees have to pay $700 to $1,000 a month for coverage for two people. This is no better than Cobra coverage. Many people go to work for large companies for the benefits, health insurance and retirement knowing that this was promised at the beginning of their employment with this company. FedEx is very good with public relations they have the means and the money to make the story sound good. They also are very good of promising many things. But to is all smoke and mirrors.

Pluspunten

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

Minpunten

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.
