I have worked at FedEx Ground for almost two months now. I keep hearing how UPS is a much better company to work for. If I ever get a chance, should I make the switch? In what ways is UPS better?
AT THIS TIME , The way the economy is , id stay right were your at . ups has many problems and so dose fedx. who really knows whos better? fedx is a respectable job.( as is ups), and many other occupations, come on down to ups it all dependends on what sacrifice you are willing to do, most of your managment team at fed x came from ups dhl puralator ect, dont tell them you want to leave but ask them what they think of the big brown machine? the (s) in ups is sacrifice, good luck in your choice.I have worked at FedEx Ground for almost two months now.

The large Fed ex building across the street has A/c. Our much, much larger building has non. I dont know where you are but thats a common thing to look out for, heating and cooling.
The rasies system, which I come into, is way better then what is in place now. ( at UPS ) I get two raises a year, while the others after that contact ended, will only get one rasie a year. I'm at 3 1/2 years and will get 3 weeks off next year. This with more promise for more time off in the future. Not to menction benefits for you and your family. To include your family, its only an increase of 1cent per person.
Plus all the advantages one could partake in the future of their employment. Fedex, on the other hand, wants you to pay for those jobs. Renting cars or buying semis, for example, are how you get into driving. Here, you can get into a car in time without renting or buying, while being trained.
I never realized until just now that Orly and Rocket Man must be related.
rocket, you can't leave. You are way to enjoyable.Its my last post im getting off site.
