If you don't work here and don't have a clue as to the facts, might be best to not post. The company has given 3% most years and gave a 2% raise one year over the last 10 years or more. Those are not huge raises but they are raises. Many of the people that were not topped out got over 6% raises last year and again this year. That is 12% over the last 2 years for those that have a problem with math. I have 40 + years and now I am not even topped out and you don't hear me whining like a girl.What is wrong with you. 17 bucks an hour after 10 years is not a perceived problem. That is a real problem. These guys gave their time to a company that promised them raises every year but for one reason or another didn't get it. They were lied to. So they kept plugging away waiting for a raise that never happened. FedEx themselves sees the problem and is "restructuring" the pay scale to get these guys the raises they deserve. How does the company itself see the problem and you don't. Your head is so far in the sand you do not see what's happening around you. Unhappy couriers are growing in numbers and happy couriers are declining. This new pay restructuring is most likely a lie as well to continue to get people to stay based on the premise that they will get the raise they are promised but will probably never see. The market levels and step plan is also wildly confusing for a job that involves delivering packages. Coincidence?? And don't try to tell me I'm bitter and full of hate. I don't even work at fedex. But I do talk to the couriers from time to time and all they say is how much more we make and how much they hate what FedEx has become.
