[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 754720, member: 24302"] Again, on the lowest payscale, topped out employees made $16.11hr in 1998. Over the next few years they got several adjustments up, with the company explaining in a detailed letter with graphics how the new pay system will work. They explained that with the last adjustment a new system was in place where mid-range employees would get up to a 5% raise with a 7 review, and with each .1 lower than a 7 the % would be incrementally lower. A 6.5 review was a 4% raise for example. The next year they raised raise %'s 1% so now a 7 review is a 6% raise, etc. At the same time they explained that for top of range employees the annual raise was 3%, guaranteed as long as the employee got a 5 or better on his review. This wasn't something posted annually on a wall but a mailing touted as why FedEx gives us a better deal, even claiming it's a better deal than UPS since their raises are negotiated every 5 years. At the time I was stunned that they would make such a claim. Just because you didn't see this doesn't mean it wasn't so or that I'm mistaken.
