Pros

Great pay. Just a few tents shy 70 cents per mile. 45.50 per day in task pay. That's the basic hook swap drop and fuel. All those are paid separately. Additional tasks, out of route miles and delay are all so paid. But that will give you the basics.

Cons

There's really not any cons. If you're the type of driver that wants to do things your way keep looking. FedEx holds us to a very high standard. Also you're not going to walk in off the street and get a road driver job. FedEx is all about promotion from within. You can start out as a dock worker and work your way up. Even our managing director started on the dock. If you're young and willing to work it's a great job. You're not going to get rich but you'll be well compensated.

Pros

- Insurance benefits are offered to part time employees - Pay is sufficient based on being part time - Management will send some communications regarding big picture matters - There is some leniency regarding calling out of work

Cons

- The requirement to maintain insurance is becoming more difficult - Employees are not paid the same rate simply based on tenor rather than qualifications - Management will rarely, if ever, address direct employee concerns - Leniency for calling out only seems to apply for certain employees - There is no standard of training or written expectations readily available once hired
