Hi Matt! Would you and Fred be a lot happier if all the senior employees quit Express? And how much success would you anticipate with a staff of newbies?
Dear Cactus,
Thanks for your question and Bravo Zulu for everything you do for FedEx!! All of our senior employees are incredibly important to our success here at FedEx, and we honor their contribution by calling them Legacy Couriers. At FedEx, we are constantly innovating and trying to deliver packages more efficiently. That means our employees need to be flexible and willing to accept change as part of our team efforts. With the success of DRA, we anticipate that a new FedEx courier will be just as productive as an experienced courier within 24 hours. But, because we need to create goals for these employees to aspire to, they will be paid accordingly. There must be something for them to look forward to as they begin their career at the world's best company!!
Beside an outstanding compensation package, these new employees also have an equally outstanding benefits package, PLUS the flexibility to work whenever we need them, even if that's a little as 17.5 hours per week. I know that all senior employees have the same level of flexibility and are happy with their pay and benefits. Year after year, PSP and the SFA guarantee that FedEx workers are satisfied, productive workers. All the while, we will honor our commitments to senior employees and continue to cherish both them AND their loyal service to FedEx.
We anticipate great success in the coming year and an excellent peak season as well. Your continued sacrifice and extra effort are appreciated!! You are the greatest, and FedEx cares about YOU!! Our employees are the Purple Promise. Bend over, grab your ankles, and touch your tongue to the floor, because I'm ready to make you love your job even more!!
Thanks for your question, and have a productive day!!
Regards,
Matt
