[QUOTE="Ricochet1a, post: 593986, member: 22880"] Must have been nice for your gal to have a radio, air conditioner and always done after 8 hours. Doesn't sound like the FedEx I work for; but things may be a little different in Canada. By the way, you don't have a clue as to compensation rate differentials between UPS and FedEx in the U.S., so you might as well keep your "crap" to yourself. Physical Workplace: 120 degree cargo area in the summer, faulty heater in the winter, yup, great workplace. Work Atmosphere: Implicit Threats standard operating procedure, great workplace Health, Financial and Family Benefits: Health Premiums that go up 10% annually, coverage that gets trimmed annually, Great place Vacation and Time Off: Vacation Bid System that prevents anyone with under 5 years from getting any desirable time off and anyone with less than 10 years attempting to get a week off that they really want. No flexibility after bidding. If family has opportunity to meet, the FedEx employee is SOL if they don't already have vacation scheduled. Employee Communications: GFT, how sweet it is. Couldn't get any better for us. Performance Management: Don't have a clue about what they are talking about unless it is the performance review system within FedEx. I can't begin to explain what a joke it is. Training & Skills Development: Couriers were forced to take routes without a single day or orientation on said route (ride along). Policy finally reversed when missed committment times began costing more than potential wage savings. Skills development is limited to regional engineers telling us to get an extra stop per hour and maintain 95% of monthly goal (with the extra stop per hour added in) or expect disciplinary action to be taken. Community Involvement: FedEx maintains a clean image of itself in PR, but employees are forced to waive minimums or do menial tasks while making up the difference between time on road and minimum guaranteed hours. As far as the UN selecting best countries to live in... If you put an credibility in the UN, that says it all. Best socialist paradise is their criteria. Stow the UN. Your wage structure in Canada must be different... It takes UPS drivers about 3 years to hit 29 USD. It takes 17 years for a FedEx Courier to hit 22.50 USD. You may want to do some more research before you start flinging your fecal material about the string; the wage differential is at least 35%. UPS drivers can net 90.000 a year, FedEx Couriers are doing well to net 50,000 and that is after being topped out. [/QUOTE]
