Make a prediction and tell us what you think about Fedex layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?

No work-life balance here. I've became a bitter and tired old man. If I had any other option, I would leave immediately because this company is literally draining people. I believe that most employees are still here only for the reason that they have... —  read more 

Voluntary furloughs are starting this week in Chicago area. Down 20% on average daily shipment counts.

Nothing good can come out of this. They might not be mentioning layoffs other than for the closing stores yet, but I'm guaranteeing you it's coming. Not to mention, they'll cut our hours but they'll still expect us to do the same amount of work in... —  read more 

Is this going to be an interesting year as it relates to Fedex layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?

Is it customary for FedEx to deny benefits when you are injured on the job? Or when THEIR doctor recommends surgery for a very painful spine injury which is needed ASAP? So they ignore any communication from doctors and lawyers because they don’t... —  read more 

How long before the layoffs hit our side of the pond? I know things are going good right now, but with the vaccine things will probably start to return to normal soon and the boost we received will dissipate. That's probably why we didn't provide an... —  read more

Has FedEx laid off any US employees last week or are there any plans to cut anybody in the next few weeks?

You don't want to work there. The end plan seems to be to move almost all IT to outsourced vendors. Pay is stagnant and benefits get worse each year. I have worked there for 5 years, they are currently trying to force out old timers with needed... —  read more

Where is all of this taking our communities and our company?

FedEx is going to lay off employees in cross border division, they are trying to keep it a secret and going to do it before the new fiscal year June 2019 - so they do not have to pay out employees earned vacation. There likely will be more layoffs at... —  read more 

Is this the biggest location you have? How many employees are at Memphis?

Where do I find guidance on who is eligible for buyouts at FedEx? Thank you!

honestly we've done fairly good - most companies have frequent layoffs and we do not, sometimes we have buyouts, maybe every four years or so but that's for salaried only and hourly workers are typically protected. also, hourly workers have high... —  read more 

Do you think they will offer buyouts in 2019?

Please share any information if you have it. I hear some rumors, not sure who to believe - even people outside of FedEx are talking about layoffs in Italia. Please share.

Hi. A few months ago, my Fedex Office print/ship center was closed down and everyone laid off. I was approved for re-hire and have applied to several local Fedex Office Retail Centers (my first experience was with Kinkos before it was bought by... —  read more 

I work at FedEx and my department is understaffed. It has been understaffed for about 6 months and they have a freeze on hiring. Fedex is not just handling parcels. There are so many officers and other departments that can go with fewer workers... —  read more

I was with Fedex for a very long time, they offer this every few years because they had a no lay off policy. I chose to take the buyout and they gave me a beautiful severance package. Couldn’t have made a better move, even though I loved working for... —  read more 

OMG, so much drama. For the folks that are not with the company any more, rest assured, the news about the buyouts are true but it's unlikely there will be a cut following it. If you remember, we had a buyout offered in 2012 and i think 1,500 people... —  read more 

Over 1000 employees were let go in IT only - I was one of them. Not sure about other groups but I can tell you that they continue to still outsource overseas and this will not stop. Just ask around, ask people what's going on in IT and how much US... —  read more 

Four weeks of gross base pay for every year worked (needs to be continuous) at Fedex... When you add all weeks up it cannot exceed two years. I think you max out on the buyout if you have more than 26 years of service with FedEx (26 years x 4 weeks =... —  read more

Do we know how many people need to accept the buyout offer for us to avoid any further layoffs at FedEx? It really would be great if the number can be matched. I know a lot of people who can't wait to get out of here. However, I'm still worried it's... —  read more 

I've been with FXS for about a year now, I am in one of the non-Memphis branches. Anyhow, folks are mildly concerned with buyouts, but there is no freak-out and things are orderly - I guess people are feeling OK-ish overall. This is my first job... —  read more
