We got the same list as posted here couriers with 10-11 years or so are either falling pennies below step 3 or pennies above step three, so some guys getting bumped to step 4 some are getting 2-10 cents to stay in step 3 these people had nearly the same pay with the difference of pennies are now dollar + apart and same service time.

One guy that hasn't hit his second year yet wound up in step 2. Couriers from 2-10 years seem to wind up in step 2-4.

This is from market level A with no market change effecting us. Step four is the highest I've seen from the those that I've asked so far. Guessing its gotta be about 13 yrs + to be dropped into 5.


If what you guys say is true about the market not getting a bump its another way of freeing up money to make people fall into the step system while trying to look like the good guys.

Seems by this chart in a market level A someone that was hired last month would get 3% and put them over step one and put them now into step 2 on their first year.

What are the steps based off of are they off of last year's numbers for this year after the 3% bump?

Take your Current Salary add 3%, then look at the list Dano posted with the steps (Market A) and see where you fall, you then get bumped up to the next highest amount above your rate could be 1 cent or could be $1+

So best case scenario after your 3% would be to get $16.61 $17.51 $18.46 etc

worst case scenario making $16.59 $17.49 $18.44 etc.(my friend with 3% will get $18.35 10yr employee so he will get bumped to 18.45)


Step 10 - 26.29
Step 9 - 25.31
Step 8 - 24.01
Step 7 - 22.78
Step 6 - 21.61
Step 5 - 20.50
Step 4 - 19.45
Step 3 - 18.45
Step 2 - 17.50
Step 1 - 16.60

I'm not in Market A or B what I was wondering is it the steps are based off of this year's 3% bump for last year's numbers?

What I'm asking is if the steps have been increased or just the top and bottom?

no, these numbers are based on them consolidating the a, b and E markets. at least that's my SM told us. kinda strange because E starting pay was 17.06. so I can't see how they consolidated E into that bottom base market.

Looks like all steps were increased from the estimated steps given out last year using current top rate +3% to be step 10.

If i remember correctly they didn't use those steps last year they were just a estimate of what it would look like once they started the system?

Cool yeah I know last year's numbers was just an example but they were using numbers based off of the last year's hourly rates just wanted to see if they increased the steps this year along with the top and bottom.

the chart Dano posted in the other thread is the new levels for a/b combined now. not much of a bump if you're in A market now but good bump for B market. too bad the market level increase doesn't matter for your current hourly wage as you won't see it. they added it to the step progression so now it takes you longer to top out if you're in A/B market. crappy how they manipulated the numbers

We don't care about that. We are concerned with OUR raises, at FedEx. If we want to know about American raises, we'll go to Current Events. Plus, your chart is outdated..... 11 years old.
YOUU dont care. did the other members elected you to speak on their behalf? or did you select yourself?

this is one of the most important economic charts you can find and it gives a general idea as to why your raises are so weak!

It actually looks like the chart Dano posted is just a 3% bump of your Market level A it doesn't look like it's bumped up to Market E.
