Business outlook
Pros
Upper management in Portland, OR is very interested in developing those below them. Medical benefits are great. Job security is very high for a manager as long as one does not date package handlers, maintains one's integrity, and shows up every day with a good attitude. Every day is a little different, but similar enough that one can learn how to perform the job. If one can survive at FedEx, one can thrive anywhere: it's good training.
Cons
The work is intense and demands a wide range of soft skills, mostly in the areas of dealing with people and solving problems. The last few years, the company has not paid out bonuses that were earned.
