I never said they don't follow their PSP. IMHO they do follow that philosophy. Just my opinion. My point was that you cannot have one without the other two. They are not mutually exclusive, they are very intertwined.
They follow PSP? That's true, but only if the acronym actually stands for Profit, Service, People. When are all of you "believers" out there going to get a clue? You are completely disposable at any time, and all that matters any more is profit. Every once in awhile, they do let someone win a GFT or Open Door.....that way it appears that the process "works" and is fair, when it is anything but equitable.
Management holds all the cards...almost all the time. Unless you happen to be a minority or have caught them in some particularly bad breach of policy or the law, they've got all the power. HR simply backs-up management in the vast majority of cases.
A legitimate grievance process brings-in a third party that isn't management. That simply isn't the case with either the GFT or Open Door. I've got to say I don't know what to think of you quadro. Are you just one of the Kool-Aid crowd, or are you on here at the directive of FedEx?
If you're the former, I respect your opinion, but obviously disagree, and if you're the latter, the disinformation campaign really isn't working anymore. There are always a few who will "believe" despite the mountain of contrary evidence, but the folks I talk to aren't buying-it...at all. This isn't just my station, but from all over the country. FedEx is pretty much the same wherever you go, and the game is played by the same rules.
PSP is a joke, just a meaningless talking point that sounds good but has no merit or substance in fact. The FedEx PR machine is stumbling, fumbling. and running on 4 out of 8 cylinders these days, and as effective as this bunch of liars can be, they are losing the war.
