No, it's just like when you transfer. If you are at 50% of range at your current station, you'll be at 50% of range on your new station's payscale. It's not arbitrary, and messing with their employees' pay like that would incur a huge lawsuit.
Market levels

Because they have to.
It's completely arbitrary! Just like all of FedEx's pay actions. There is no union contract to abide by here. They could cut cut your pay in half and there's nothing you could do about it. What are you going to sue them for? Not paying you enough money? If that was legit everybody would sue their employer. Besides, you would be making the same amount you are now.

He is right though, when you transfer to a higher pay scale you gain money
I realize that, but let's say they eliminate the B market level. Do you they are going to give all those couriers the dollar and change for the market level, 3 percent, and a bump up to the next step. That could be a $2/ hr raise. I don't see them doing that. I think they will give the 3 percent and then bump you up to the next step in the A market level. Just my opinion. FedEx has a history of doing things as cheaply as possible.
I sure wish we had asked you sooner about raises. You really know your stuff. No surprises in October now that we know what to expect. Thank you. No, really, thank you.
Anytime bro!

They do have to do something, but the 10 Step Plan is a joke. Why not have it be 3 to 5 years like a union company? Definitive, and no games. But they won't even make that commitment.
More carrot on a stick.
As a company they are committed to making their hourly employees have a job that it is just good enough that they don't leave...

Yep. Keep dangling the carrot and stall on giving out any real money. Lots of talk, and little action.
Yep, they said the same thing about the quartile system a few years ago. That's been a disaster as well. Lots of empty promises.

Whatever you get will be taken away elsewhere. Health care costs, reduced hours, more PT positions, and elimination of vacation/personal days are just a few of their options.

October 2 and October 16.
so they go into effect the same time we get our raises? I figured they would system "next fiscal year" lol
