Well folks.. It's October. Anyone hear anything about raises? Checked in IMS. No change to my pay rate yet..
Heard there was a glitch in the system and that they're working on it.Well folks.. It's October. Anyone hear anything about raises? Checked in IMS. No change to my pay rate yet..
Management said because we just had our 1,000,000 employee that it threw a glitch in the system .Yeah I think is bull smile*. They probably thought we forgot or wouldn't notice.A "glitch" huh?
Everything about this company is shady. Can't wait till peak. It's going to be worse than last year.There's no way it couldn't not be bull^*it.
A "glitch" huh?
It's 2% not 3%. No offset there. It really is a slap in the face.3% comes out to be less than 50 cents an hour for me. I'm well aware it's not a "raise". No need to repeat yourself or get your panties in a wade over it. I'm just trying to look for ways to minimize the damage the company has done to my finances over the last 8 years and maybe offset the insurance burden they're about to put on myself and my family.

Only that it's 2% and was supposed to be effective today but this so called glitch has delayed it.30 cents. Every raise I've ever gotten at this pile of crap is a slap in the face. Hell drivers off the street make cents less than 8 year employees do. I just wanted to know if anyone had heard anything about raises this year. FedEx news doesn't usually make it down to the lowly hourlies at my station .
Where are you located at? You can be vague. We haven't used the review system for raises in a few years.
Last year I got 5%. After the raise in insurance and based on 40 hours, I figure I netted $25.00 for the month. A topped out courier I work with got 3% and after the raise insurance he actually took home less.Like maybe they are reconsidering your raise? Here's the deal, and I know I have said it before, but here it goes: It does not matter whether you get a "raise" or not because anything you get will be more than eliminated by takeaways such as reduced hours, increased insurance costs etc. So there, I have repeated myself...again. No matter what, your pay will be lower overall, because that is the Master Plan. Please, people, be smart about the way FedEx operates. They are going to give you a net ZERO, or perhaps even take more away.
Yes, it's depressing, but it's also the truth. Don't delude yourself or try and rationalize it. FedEx is out to screw you, and they will, because they can.
We don't use reviews here anymore.Be thankful. Up here the most we're going to be able to get this year is 1.25% and that's if you get anything above a 6.6 on your review. They changed the way they review us too so every missed van scan or missed del scan goes against you. They've pretty much made it impossible to get anywhere near a 6.6 now. My manager showed me what my review would be a few months ago and it was a 5.7. I earned a top raise last year and now all of a sudden I'm only worth a 5.7 without changing the way I do my job or my efficiency.
