Administrative Customs Clerk II (Former Employee) – Mississauga, ON – 10 January 2019
Fedex is a great company to start up a career if someone desires. Personally, it was not what I wanted to finished mine on the other hand. But, It helped me to start up my steps professionally.
Pros
Good benefits
Cons
Too long to climb up the ladder
Fast pace. Non enjoyable environment
Package Handler (Current Employee) – Vaughan, ON – 8 January 2019
A typical day at FedEx Ground: it's no fun, backbreaking, and dirty. You always feel like your in competition with the new hires. It's a fulltime schedule with part-time hours. The managers and admins are very out of touch with the average worker. The work is unfair, as some will always strive for 100% and others will barely try and force the people who strive for 100% to bend over backwards and do all the physically demanding tasks. That being said, you will definitely meet some nice coworkers or managers and make friends. If I could change three things it would be: managers should be assisting package handlers by having a scanner and doing the work their employees are doing; instead of just sitting around on their phones, implement some kind of rotation with areas or the whole building, and finally if someone can't achieve the minimum, don't keep them; its unfair to everyone else.
Pros
Food & extra hours
Cons
Hot or Cold & laziness

Senior Operations Administrative (Former Employee) – Calgary, AB – 2 December 2018
Work place culture is not as you think of, you are hired on seasonal basis mostly and promise to get extensions but if they dont like you they only tell you by mouth not to show up for work tomorrow. Too much favourtism.

ADMINISTRATION ASSOCIATE (Former Employee) – Mississauga, ON – 17 September 2018
FedEx Ground is a great company to work with and for.
Management allows you to expand your knowledge of the job and company without limitation. The workplace culture is a safe , warm and friendly environment. The best part of my day is interacting with an array of different people as FedEx is such a diverse company.

DC Driver Services (Former Employee) – Calgary, AB – 17 August 2018
As a contractor or employee of one for FedEx Ground you work in a fast paced environment. Depending on the route worked there can be anywhere from 60 - 100 delivery stops in a day.

Part time package handler (Former Employee) – Cambridge, ON – 19 June 2018
LET THIS BE A FAIR WARNING TO YOU...this has to be one of the worst jobs. Firstly horrible manager. They literally don't care about you, your injuries or your health. All they care about is productivity and numbers. That is all you are to them..a number. They act like they care but they really don't. The job itself is very demanding. To whoever says the Cambridge Hub is a great place to work..your crazy! I've learned two things there how to become crippled and how to suffer from very high blood pressure. Outbound manager has lack of problem solving skills. If your behind on schedule he will start slamming and yelling at staff. Outbound manager is always angry and you can tell in staff faces they don't like working there. If you are not favored there don't expect to be treated with respect...In a lack of a better word, the outbound manager bullies some staff. New hires come and honestly do not get trained properly. They usually get shoved right into the line and learn from other staff, Outbound manager does not take the time to train them. Enjoyable part of the job is working with co-workers. Met some really good workers and also dealt with some really clueless ones. Honestly this is a dead end job. If you like being stressed out day to day, coming into work with hating every minute of it, by all means apply. Instead of recommending people to apply, I WOULD HONESTLY SAY STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS PLACE AS POSSIBLE.
Take this as a fair warning!

Physically Demanding Job
Courier (Former Employee) – Calgary, AB – 6 June 2018
A very double standard company to work for they preach safety 1st but anytime an employee makes a safety decision that ends in a parcel not being delivered you are reprimanded for your actions severely
Pros
Daily rate
Cons
Very long hours
Its Alright
Package/Material Handler (Current Employee) – Calgary, AB – 11 May 2018
FedEx provides unorthodox work methods. You are required to continue working till your work is done as a package handlers (regardless of hours). This really cuts into your work life. They have competitive benefits and pay but sometimes its not worth it as this job cuts into your life heavily.
Handling packages
Agent de location d'auto à AVIS BUDGET, Québec (Former Employee) – Québec City, QC – 9 May 2018
I loved the work. They teach us everything prior to starting the work. Security issues and how to handle packages so as not to damage your waist. I acutally enjoyed my time there.
Strong group of Senior Managers
