Pluspunten

High pay for the industry. The lack of a union might seem like a bad thing, but fed ex pays more than UPS (which has a union) and you don't have to pay union dues to work there (amounts to hundreds of dollars).

Minpunten

Hot, brutal, physical work. I didn't really mind it, but there is almost no support such as ladders to reach high packages. Working like this for years might permanently disable you. The real expectations of the job are that you can lift 150 pound packages unassisted from below your feet (down in the belly of a truck). Very dangerous environment too, I would wear my glasses (the amount of dust in the air made contacts uncomfortable) and during my 2.5 months there I was hit in the head by boxes badly enough that it bent my glasses probably a half-dozen times. I also had a friend knocked out by a falling box, I was hit in the back by an entire wall of collapsing boxes, and on multiple occasions I nearly broke my toes with falling boxes (remember to buy steel-toed boots).

Pluspunten

One of the benefits they list to get you in the door is TOP RATE pay*. The top rate is currently unknown but general consensus is 20 years to top rate pay. If you love standing around making up stories in your own head for two hours while spreading rumors amongst your unabashed co-workers about other co-workers you’ve interacted 2 minutes in the year you’ve worked together then this job is for you! Minimal logic involved.

Minpunten

Fellow employees will unionize to get you out of your route. Employees will make up stories to pit employees against one another. Fellow employees will threaten other employees for being friendly to one another. The management is willing bend over backwards to give you a bad review if leaving for another job. Co-workers are extremely bored and in most cases workload differs dramatically depending on where you are on the sort.
