Nobody but the Purple Promise types will put forth the extra effort management has come to expect over the years because they know that the payoff is ZERO.
Yup, and even the Purple Promise types will eventually see the light one way or the other.
I bled purple for a portion of the time I spent there. As I saw co-workers get fired for petty crapp, and I'm even talking old-timers. I began to question my own job security. It quickly occured to me that there was no job security. The BS lines like "if you do a good job, you will have a job" soon became transparent for what it really was.
What really did it for me was when I became a "lead/aspire candidate".
I decided to go to management with employee concerns.
I learned in a day or two tops that management HAD ABSOLUTELY NO INTEREST in employee concerns. NONE.
That sickened me to the extreme.
So, all of the above plus PLENTY more led to my decision to leave Fedex.
It's one thing to be overworked and underpaid. It's another to be overworked, underpaid, and do so without being appreciated at all.
My favorite saying about Fedex:
It's a thankless job. PERIOD.
