A suggestion for anyone planning on taking severance or just plain leaving the company. On your last day of work, FedEx will call the benefits department and have all of your medical, dental, vision plans canceled immediately. FedEx does not let your benefits run till the end of the month like most companies do.
You will be given the option to COBRA your benefits, and it will pick up on the day after they canceled, but you wont get the offer to COBRA for 2-4 weeks after they canceled you.
So, if you have an ongoing medical condition or need maintenance drugs, make sure you see your doctors and have the prescriptions filled before your final day, so you won't be caught without like I was.
This has happened to me and several other drivers I know over the last couple of months. Good luck with your future plans. Stay safe out there!
