I knew this would happen. I was on step 9. Another couple years till I top out.
So who did you hear that from? Coworker? Senior Manager?I knew this would happen. I was on step 9. Another couple years till I top out.
I'd rather get bumped up 3% per year than be topped out, I'll make more that way.I knew this would happen. I was on step 9. Another couple years till I top out.

4 years? Lol....now that's funny.Well, then I just become 11 "steps" dumber and slower. By the 4th year if you dont have this job down pat, you shouldn't still be around.
If you are topped out and make more than the person getting 3% raises, wouldn't you make more by being topped out?I'd rather get bumped up 3% per year than be topped out, I'll make more that way.

A 3% raise from my current rate, based on a 40 hour week comes out to almost $1700 for the year.....and that's assuming NO overtime. I doubt topped out's 3% lump sum comes out to more. Even if it does, it's not by much.If you are topped out and make more than the person getting 3% raises, wouldn't you make more by being topped out?
Your assuming topped out will ONLY get lump sums from here on out. That can't be because eventually step 9 and 10 will be making the same amount or 9 will pass step 10. This year they gave topped out a lump sum. I doubt that trend will continue.A 3% raise from my current rate, based on a 40 hour week comes out to almost $1700 for the year.....and that's assuming NO overtime.

That's assuming 3%. I forgot a bump in step is 5%, which works out even better.
I'm betting everyone will top out at step 10 and then from there on you may or may not get a bonus based on what the economy is doing.Your assuming topped out will ONLY get lump sums from here on out.

My lump sum was a little over $1100 each time and I worked very little OT. It worked out good for me since I just went part time. A raise would not have benefited me as much.

EVERYONE gets a raise except topped out? So people on step 2 will eventually top out and during that period, topped out gets nothing, maybe a lump sum. Highly doubtful.I'm betting everyone will top out at step 10 and then from there on you may or may not get a bonus based on what the economy is doing.
What did step 10 get this year?EVERYONE gets a raise except topped out? So people on step 2 will eventually top out and during that period, topped out gets nothing, maybe a lump sum. Highly doubtful.
They'll still keep sliding the scale up all 10steps moving upward slightly each year, otherwise they'll get outpaced by prevailing wages. because in 15yrs you won't be competitive if you still have the same wages...
I fully support a bonus system, we'd probably be able to trim 15-20% of our routes off road if routes actually went out fully optimized.
Problem is there are 12-15yr employees that are at step 3-4 roughly with 2-3 year employees one step behind them...
Things were different this year because raises were given 6 months early. You arent naive enough to think from this point on topped out will ONLY get a lump sum. Step 2 is 8 years from topping out and for the next 8 years topped out will only get lump sums? What about the fact that if step 9 gets multiple raises and step 10 gets none, step 9 will soon pass step 10. You might want to get a 5th grader to explain the math to you.What did step 10 get this year?
You need to work all 12 steps Dude!What did step 10 get this year?
How so, if a Step 5 Courier becomes a Swing, they are at step 5 as a swing(on the swing chart)4 year employee on step 5 right here. They took care of the swing drivers when they went to the step system.
