Yep. Both at home and at work FedEx leaves our deliveries in the most awkward places and doesn't even knock on the door/ring the bell.
That's probably because the delivery people aren't even FedEx employees, unlike UPS that trains their drivers well and have a culture of friendliness and helpfulness. I know many people that have great relationships with their UPS drivers. I have a great relationship with my driver, including having his cell phone number.

Our previous UPS driver was an Arab (originally from Jerusalem) named Mohammad. He was super friendly and knew everyone on his route, we even used to give him some home made Challah if he had a delivery for us on a Friday. When he was replaced with our current driver, Henry, I thought we'd never get the great service we got from Mohammad, but while Henry doesn't have the personality of Mohammad, there's no doubt in my mind that UPS has a company culture and training to be friendly and helpful, something that cannot be said about FedEx.

The ability to give for UPS any type of package, whereas FedEx Express can not accept ground etc.
FedEx is ran so backwards it's scary. I'll have on average 3-4 FedEx trucks do deliveries to my warehouse but with UPS they manage to bring it all on one truck.

FedEx ground is actually RPS which FedEx acquired, but never integrated into their company, but rather kept separate, as opposed to UPS which started as a package delivery company (ground) that added express services in a well integrated way.
