Pros

Before integration, management always inspired, empowered staff. It was transparent, open door and mutual respect regardless of ranking, title. Staff was treated respectfully. Opinions were heard even if it opposite opinion. It was collaborative environment. Everyone upholds their quality of works and help each other. There is no politics in office

Cons

During integration, managers who originally are not from FedEx can’t uphold purple culture and bring their own management style into FedEx. More aggressive, bossy mangers who only wants yes man . Their ego,pride are high and the most important. Employees no longer can give any feedback, opinion, solutions. There is bias on treatment, TNT ex-mangers try to protect their own people by giving projects, opportunities, share information to their own people, let purple subordinates to clean up mess. It creates a lot of toxic politic environment when now loud voice people can easily suppress others; created a grouping; blaming game and passing the ball around. More long service outstanding employees whose used to solve a lot of problems and proposed good ideas are leaving,this causes demoralise and it creates domino effect.

Pros

Good consistency in pay, caring bosses, solid yearly raises, consistent/regular routes, not a lot of floating between routes after gaining minimal seniority. I was given a route to myself after only 5 months of work, even before then I was usually given that route with minimal floating to other routes for the day. I have loved working here. So much consistency and you are just basically driving all day, bringing cool people their packages (my route is a mix between in town and countryside). I highly recommend this company through a contractor, working for FedEx corporate/Express has mixed reviews. Not much micromanaging at all from my contractor.

Cons

Contracts between third-party and FedEx corporate are not always great or reasonable financially leading to occasional and temporary surprise increases in workload due to contracts with companies like Walmart, Costco, Amazon without much increase in base pay as a result, although contractors do compensate their drivers out of their profits. It would be nice if they received more from the third-parties as a result. The trucks take a beating but they do pretty well with what we give them, they still stay comfortably drivable and contractors are always ready to repair them. Sometimes the trucks struggle with A/C, not critically but still not always crispy and not extremely comfortable in mid-western heat.
