Let's be honest with ourselves no one working at fedex is going to get rich working as a courier but all the complaints about the recent step progression system is about what's right,fair,ethical and probably very close to being what's legal.I myself am one of the employees with 10-15 years of service that is in step 2 while every employee hired within the past 3 years is in the same exact step maybe even hire.I see post saying if you don't like it then quit but this is not the answer to this situation..A employee who's put in 10,11 years is an employee who's comfortable with fedex, has made a living with fedex and are the employees who got hired back in 2005 or so weren't making what couriers with 10 years already were making.Back then fedex made it seem that seniority is what got you a higher salary so we figured we put in the time and we would be rewarded.I think it's safe to say that putting in 10 years or more at fedex is efficient enough to say you put in time.There's no specific amount that a 10 year person should make but for my market which is B/A $20 would be acceptable.I'm not a greedy person others may think more.
Just because fedex makes rules,market changes and policies doesn't make them legal.honestly all the different market levels is a question mark in itself.now certain market have combined and employees who transferred from a higher market to a lower market not only had to lose pay but if they decided to go back to the higher market which now had merged with the lower market they wouldn't get a pay increase.
I'm not saying what they have done isn't legal but talking on this sight won't fix the situation.Talking to someone outside of fedex may be the answer to have someone look into the situation and if enough chatter arises because of the severe salary compression,market level changes then maybe something can change. If nothing happens then we all suck it up like adults and allow fedex to pay newbies more than us seniors.as I stated before it not about the money it's about what fair.2 year employee $17.50, 12 year employee $17.50. If this looks fair to you then say nothing if it doesn't then say everything you can
