Love the people...
GTS (Current Employee) – Mirabel, QC – 4 March 2019
but simply not enough hours. Every single paycheck I've ever received has been different. Overworked during peak season and not enough work otherwise. Management is great and so are the co-workers but there is a revolving door so don't get too attached.
Pros
Cool hours - done before lunch.
Cons
Not enough hours.
Very dynamic and fun work environment
Courier Driver (Current Employee) – Markham, ON – 7 January 2019
You are on the GO from the time you enter the work premises until you leave. Although I am a casual employee I am doing as much or even more (going above and beyond) to satisfy customers.
Pros
Satisfying to know that your customers and very pleased
Cons
Very long or no hours of work at times
courrier fedex express
Courrier (Current Employee) – Drummondville, QC – 20 December 2018
une journée de travaille typique est l'arrivé du camion de déchargement des colis. nous trions les colis pour les envoyer sur la bonne route. nous partons livrer tous les colis. Après la livraison nous revenons à la station pour décharger les colis dans un camion qui les apportera jusqu'au centre de tri pour ensuite les apporter à l'aéroport de mirabel pour tous ce qui est des colis internationnal.
Pros
salaire
Cons
pression
Fun Place to work at
Opérateur (Current Employee) – Mirabel, QC – 12 December 2018
My biggest enjoyment is the teamwork!! You're never left on your own, there's always someone willing to help you no matter what the case may be. The workers there are funny and affectionate and it does feel like you're a part of a big family. Another good things is that they value everyones security above all else.
Pros
Seasonal competitions and winnings, Free breakfast and snacks from time to time, excellent managing team and short hours
Cons
Lockers are filthy
productive and fun workplace with pin pong table
Package Handler (Current Employee) – Mississauga, ON – 2 December 2018
FedEx Express is a great establishment to work in, management is exceptional and stays and up to date. the workplace culture is very welcoming, the hardest part of the job is working late hours, the most enjoyable part of the job is working in a divers environment.
Pros
lots of opportunities to grow
Cons
limited options with shifts
Can you skip your break and drive 9 hours like a psycho?
Courier (Current Employee) – Windsor, ON – 1 November 2018
3-4 days a week your manager will try to bully you into skipping your lunch break because they want to overload you with packages. Some days your in trouble for not taking a lunch break, some days they are asking you not to take one.
The other jobs they also under staff you on as well. a 4-5 person team will have 3 people scheduled and you just have to deal with it. You ask your manager about it and they pretend they have no idea whats going on. HR department never calls you back so if you have an issue with anything forget getting any help.
This is a company that makes up new rules every other day. There are so many rules that they conflict other rules they have given.
The new rules are set to always take something away from you, never benefit your day at all.

Pros
Pay is ok if you stay a long time, benefits are ok
Cons
Starts close to minimum wadge, hard work in hot/humid conditions, no lunch break most of the time, expected to commit to bizarre work hours, very strange managers
Good place for work if you are a 9-5 think inside a box person
Senior Service Engineer/ Senior Analyst (Current Employee) – Mississauga, ON – 31 October 2018
Not a bad place to work if you are not ambitious.
Lots of old conservative employees at management and sr management level making any shift towards more dynamic environment literally impossible.

Pros
safe work culture
Cons
Out dated HR practices - super conservative management
Low paying, very hard work and absolutely terrible job.
Cargo Handler (Former Employee) – Winnipeg, MB – 19 October 2018
Very hard work. Managers yell and belittle you if you work too slowly. Its literally throwing boxes onto a belt for 5 hours. Only the favourited workers get full time or decent hours. These favourites also are disrespectable and get away with it too. They used to swear and threaten me. When reported management did nothing. Not all workers are bad there but most really are. You also work in high heat while the managers sit in air conditioned offices. Feels like the military rather than a job you’d enjoy and worked hard in school to get. Please trust me as I used to work here.
Pros
Free uniform. Employee parking availible.
Cons
Very rude coworkers. Management overworks workers and offers few hours.
Customer Service Rep - doesn't feel like a "Career"
Customer Service Representative (Current Employee) – Richmond, BC – 19 August 2018
Working in the Richmond Call Centre is basically a job... would not consider it a career. I love the employees I work with, but it is extremely hard to advance or move into other departments within the company unless you are willing to "outwait" years for employees to retire or quit.
Call Centre work is high stress, management worries a LOT about stats and being world class. They mean well, but the company is so big that you are sometimes just treated as a "number".
Very high attrition in the Call Centre... 2 groups of new hires are trained every year (16 people in a class) and less than half are still there a year or two later. Most people will stay for a bit and then find something better.
Benefits are good... pay is alright. It's a job.
Booking vacation days is a bit frustrating... not enough "slots" to book off for such a large group. You won't get any days off near a long weekend or summer time unless you have a high senority.

Good company to work for, immediate superiors have my personal interest at heart.
Pilot (Current Employee) – Toronto ON – 15 August 2018
Excellent and well established company, good employees to work with. Equipment is relatively new and well maintained, and the company works on a well established schedule.

90% of work is at night, no travel benifits.
Good

It's good but try Ups or Purolator first, they are much better as compare to FedEx Express.
Cargo Handler (Former Employee) – Mississauga, ON – 5 July 2018
It's a good company to work only if you couldn't get a job at UPS or Purolator. But keep always trying at UPS or Purolator even you got a job at FedEx Express.
Big difference is the pay and benefits between FedEx Express and UPS.
At UPS you will reach to the top rate pay within 2 to 3 years whereas at FedEx Express it take 15 to 20 years to reach at top rate. After 5 years you will only reach upto mid top rate pay at FedEx Express.
Huge difference in benifts between FedEx Express and UPS. At FedEx Express you need to pay for the benifts whereas at UPS you don't.
If you're interested in further studies or further personal development UPS pays upto $9000 /year as a tuition fees + $ 300 for textbooks etc whereas at FedEx Express you will only get $1500/ year to part-timer and $2500/ year to full-timer as a tuition fee.
UPS and Purolator both have unions so they do care about it's employees whereas FedEx Express cares about its profit.
Longer you stay in this company it's getting harder to leave this for your betterment. I was told by my seniors to keep trying at UPS or Purolator asap after getting a job at FedEx Express due to which at last I just got a position at UPS. Thanks to my seniors.

Great company to work for
Courier (Current Employee) – Markham, ON – 20 June 2018
One of the best companies I've ever worked for . Management is great and the way the way they treat their employees is reflective upon this . Pay is great compared to many other companies. Lots of opportunities for advancement . The only negative about working here is the time it takes to get a full time position . Overall , I am proud to be working for FEDEX Express
Pros
Company culture, pay, benefits
Cons
Getting full time
Great culture and Environment , hard working but rewarding
Courier / Dangerous Goods Agent (Current Employee) – Burnaby, BC – 13 June 2018

I will always be proud about my Fedex job and who I have worked with and for, a fantastic company , Top of the List !!!
Pros
BBq's, Awards, flight discounts, shipping discounts, benefits and weekly pay !!! and More !!
