This is the best informational video for Amazon flex ive seen so far..thanks babe I appreciate ya! Also you are ABSOLUTELY correct when u say resign as opposed to letting them terminate you!!! This is my 7th time going back to Amazon. I literally just resigned last week and ive already been hired flex 19hr for grocery warehouse!!! This is my first time flex and my first time at a grocery warehouse....I hope I like it. I love the fact I can work when I want im just a little worried about not being able to get enough hours🤷🏻♀️ Im also wondering if I work nights or weekends will I get the differential pay or do we only get our base pay???
Thank you! This was such an amazing and informative video! I’ve been looking for videos exactly about Flex Time shifts. It’s nice to know that you can also schedule an 8hr shift.
Appreciate the video. I'm starting flex soon at a fulfillment center and wasn't sure how it worked. I worked at amazon before and it was the 3 day 12 hour shifts ... That was to much for me. So was curious about the flex shift. Thanks for the video!
When I look up these positions I see 4h, 20h, or 40h by the position title. Is that referring to the minimum hours I need to work each week or is it the maximum hours I can do per week?
Excellent info!!!! I'm currently full time at a delivery station but working nights ain't easy 😭 but I think I'll take Amazon as part time. Thank you!!!!
I'm an Amazon Flex worker as well, warehouse location. I was thinking about going for the "blue badge", but flexible scheduling is nice for me. I have to work a minimum of 19 hours a week, but can work the max of 60 if I wanted mad overtime. I currently set my schedule for Mon-Thur with 10 hour shifts, which gives me that sweet 3 day weekend. Gotta have it. So true that if you have other things you love to do, or wish to pursue, flex is the way to go. I love the art scene, so a 3 day weekend is perfect for me. Great post, and I wish you much success in all that you pursue. 💫🙏✌️
Hello. Thank you for watching! I was thinking about flex blue badge at one point. I really like the flexibility as well , I just wish we were offered benefits.
So I was hired for the 19 hours- does that mean I can work more? I notice the person above said they could work 60 hours if they wanted to, is that a real thing? Cuz I’d love some more hours. I’ve worked there before but this was 12 years ago and they didn’t have all this new Flex Time stuff which is really convenient.
HUGE UPDATE: MY MOM IS REALLY ENJOYING AMAZON FLEX BIG TIME! SHE’S BEEN WORKING 50-55 HOURS A COUPLE TIMES! LAST WEEK SHE WORKED 47 and 50 HOURS THE WEEK BEFORE!
I just applied for Amazon flex at a fulfillment center. I’m supposed to complete 19hrs a week but I wonder why my training days are 7:30am-6pm. I figured it would be like yours was, 4hrs and 30 minutes
I just wanted to thank you. I work at FedEx, but have been looking for something more flexible that would allow me make money on the side. I always thought FedEx required 8-10 hour shifts, so I never considered working for them until I came across this video. My new hire appointment is this Friday!
I am here in Abilene Texas and after the 1st week of training I have only been able to pick up 2 hours. So frustrating to have to fight for a shift and they have too many people needing time. They only have 4 shifts at a time and they are gone before I can get in. I have slow internet speed and can't compete.
That's just how flex is. It sucks , that's one reason I left because it's kinda hard to make it a FT job until you have the flexibility to be able to work the graveyard shift because that's what is mostly available if your not quick enough. They do have a FLEX reduced time position that is better I hear.
The best part about my mom’s flex job at Amazon, is she has feature in her app where she has access to future upcoming shifts in 3 weeks in advance! It’s the beginning of March, and she already picked up her shifts in advance for the first 3 weeks! Her schedule as flex right now at the moment is Saturday to Thursday Saturday to Monday: 6:30am to 3:29pm (Day shift) Tuesday to Thursday: 3:30pm to 1:44am (Night shift)
If you quit in bad standing (too many points) you can’t reapply for a year, if they fire you because of pints I believe it’s only three months before you can reapply. It might be different from state to state but this is what happened to me when I quit in Washington state
I think it does differ by state. I quit when I had 9/8 points and was in bad standing. However, I didn’t have to wait a year to reapply, I was able to reapply within 3 months.
I’m afraid to apply to delivery station because those are the times are overnight. Does flexible schedule make me work in the morning for no more then 5 hours?
Flex does not show times. I actually know work in a delivery station with a set schedule. Flex is when u chose your shift , which at my FC were 4 hours each unless you stacked them
Thanks so much for this video!!! I actually start my two day training in a few hours 😂. We have to do 19 hours a week so I’m hoping to just layer Monday thru Thursday and have a three day weekend.
i applied for the flex position just to be able to grab a shift because they go so fast so i was wondering could i work 40 or more hours a week if i wanted? i would hate to leave a job working full time for just part time position.
Hi, thanks for the video. I have 3 questions... I was going to apply for the job, but I stopped the application for these reasons. so these are my questions: 1) It required my SS number right away. I was afraid ti put my full SS number there for background check. Did you have to do that? I just want to make sure that I will not have my SS number leaked. 2) The flex jobs says minimum 4 hours per week, and I would like to make more hours - but it also says is not guarantee that you will have more hours. Is it hard to get more hours? 3) Is it easy to move to a full time schedule as soon as they have any available? Thanks in advance.
1.) Yes! You need to provide your social security number before the orientation. 2.) I answered this in the video 3.) Yes and no. You have the option of requesting to transfer to another position , but the timeline for you to actually transfer may vary because it’s an internal transfer. If you want to switch to another shift , I would recommend quitting , if you can , and waiting for a better shift to pop up to chose and just be rehired.
For the fulfillment center did you apply full time then switch to flex once you got the job ? Because fulfillment centers don’t have the option to apply as flex on the job’s website. Also if u apply full time can you work one day scheduled on your training then tell them you wanna switch your full time shift to another day ?
Hi renna. This is my first job.3 days back I applied.they send e mail. And give appointment for drug test . What is the next process.i saw in online there is no flexible shifts. After 3days training can we change flexible shifts.plz explain.
Up to 19 hours some weeks and up to 40-60 others , it all depends on the weekly cap tbh. Also it depends on how fast you are picking the shifts when it drops and as if you’re willing to take graveyards shifts (those will give you more hours).
@@financialfearlessblackgirl I work graveyard shifts right now on weekends, been thinking about becoming flex to fit Amazon around a second job. Thank you for the help‼️‼️
Thank for watching. It tells you on the app how many hours you have left until the weekly cap (max hours). The weekly cap can fluctuate at any time though and you would be notified.
I'm currently full time at Amazon but within a few days I will start my new flex schedule, do you know if I will lose my health insurance or vacation time?
Yeah allot has changed with flex , it’s definitely not what it use to be. It also depends on what type of Amazon you work for the type of shifts availability (FC , sortation , or delivery station)
@Braden-gc8lp you don't get paid at the New hire orientation aka your drug test and I9 time. Please refer back to your email so you can use the correct terminology
@@financialfearlessblackgirl Thanks for your response. I completed the three day orientation and they did pay me for it on my first paycheck. I was paid my hourly pay.
It may or may not be the same for everyone, but if I didn’t resign, will I also have to wait a year to reapply again? Will they let me know at my New Hire Appointment that I will need to wait “X” amount of time to reapply? Or will they let me know before going in that I will have to wait?
It depends on the way you left. After I quit flex , although I resigned through the app , I had to wait 90 days to be able to reapply. They will not left you even submit an app until you are eligible for rehire.
I applied for a flexible 19 hour shift and my training is 3 days at 2:30 am to 9:45 am. Does those times mean what time I’m working or could I change it after the training?
@@littlegirl_280 No, you don’t have to speak with HR. You pick the shifts that works with your life schedule ( after training) You’re basically your own scheduler in a sense, you decide what day and what time you want to work. When it comes down to training, the training hours are usually set but you can inform HR or whoever is training you, if you can’t make it to the training days and they’ll most likely compromise with you and change the days or time. Also shifts typically range from early morning to late night. I hope this helps ;)
Very good detaliked explanation. I have been thinking about going back to Amz but to a different warehouse. I was at the grocery warehouse as flex time before and i refuse to do 5 hours and that -15 degrees freezer is brutal even for 1 hr. Im looking for 4 hr or less flex shifts.
@financialfearlessblackgirl I don't recommend it unless you're okay with shopping nonstop for 5 hours (flex/part time) or 10 hrs plus a day full time. Then after every cart you finish the system switches you from ambient to chill to freezer. I preferred ambient but I did t have the manage "hookup" to get them to keep me there.
I don’t currently work there anymore , I’m actually trying to go back now. From me trying to apply again , I see some training days being full 8 hours shifts so it may not still be 4 hours anymore
I actually tired flex RT at another site but the site was TRASH compared to the facility I worked at during the time of this video. Flex RT actually was better in my opinion but I couldn’t get with the site.
@@financialfearlessblackgirlhi, thanks for your reply. I transferred to another site for a flex RT schedule. I’m fortunate to work at a pretty awesome site! I have accrued points for not meeting my 30 hours minimum, but it doesn’t happen often and thankfully the points expire after 60 days! I miss having UPT, but I love having some control over my schedule. So far it’s working out well!
Hello, did they penalize you for missing the 2 other days? I don’t think I will be able to attend all 4 days of training but I’m not sure how to go about doing that.
When u say you only attend 2 days out of the training did it affect u to reschedule to complete them other day or , because I can only attend 3 days but how do I tell them I can’t attend the forth ? Will I get fired ?
I was full time few months ago but I’m applying for a flex schedule, can you please tell me what are the differences between full-time and flex? Do you get PTO, vacations and UPT?
I got hied for flex but its at a 10hr warehouse. I have to do 3 days of training or 10.5hrs a day!! Brutal. I never intend to even work an 8hr shift, thats why i chose flex.
@@financialfearlessblackgirl Its just for the 3 days of training but still. For someone looking for Flex work part time, to require them to do 3 10's out the gate is brutal.
@@kayleejayne6.040 Mine said >19hrs. We were told we have to pick up at least 1 5hr shift a week. the 19 was arbitrary. it equates to 20hrs a month. Not sure about your 30 are you maybe flex part time? It could mean 30hr/week or it could be 30hrs a month. They do not make it clear on the posting board.

I worked as a flexible amazon delivery associate, and it is the minimum amount of hours you can work!!!
Excellent info!!!! I'm currently full time at a delivery station but working nights ain't easy 😭 but I think I'll take Amazon as part time. Thank you!!!!
Me too! There’s so much VTO offered rn and 10 hours is a whole lot

Yes 4 hour shifts are perfect and if I chose to do more than that’s my business lol 😂

They changed it up. This video is from a year ago but I have a new video coming this week about some updated info.
Okay I’ll be sure to watch that thankss!
Okay so this answers my question!!!! Thank god!! I thought i had to drive!
I'm a little late but can you still get insurance? and If you can how many hours do you have to work to keep the benefits?
I don't believe flex offers insurance because you are part-time with Flex 19hr

Are weekends mandatory? and has there been any weeks nothing available to pick up?
No weekends are not mandatory , you just have to work a minimum of 4 hours a week or you get 1 point. For my FC , shifts are posted everyday at 8 PM.

You quit before you get enough points. Ex if you know u arent going to work & will get a point for it , just quit

@@majestymoon9276I think the app might’ve updated since. But, you click home, then time off & leave, and then it should show.
Thanks for the information! Question for you…I will be on vacation for 9 days. How would that work with the required 4 hours per week??
You’d have to schedule a shift and use PTO time to cover the entire shift or get 1 point for not working the 4 hour min per week

Do $16.75 times how many hours you chose to work , minus taxes in your state
Wow $3000 I need a position like that. I’m Amazon Grocery. 🎉

I'm currently full time at Amazon but within a few days I will start my new flex schedule, do you know if I will lose my health insurance or vacation time?
Idk about vacation time but no benefits with flex
For part time flex there’s no benefits. For flex reduce time, meaning your required to work a minimum of 30 hours a week you still get benefits
Mine suck it’s mostly 2 hour blocks rarely 4 and the 7 hour ones are hard to get
Yeah allot has changed with flex , it’s definitely not what it use to be. It also depends on what type of Amazon you work for the type of shifts availability (FC , sortation , or delivery station)
What does 19 hours mean? If this is flexible schedule then why are they forcing me to work 19 hours a week
If it says Flex 19hr , that’s when u chose your own shifts
What happens if I can’t attend 1 of the 4 training days?
Then u use your UPT
Thank you I start soon
Thank you for making this! It is super helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
I wish they allowed us to flex at multiple sites. I’m flex at a delivery station. My training was a Thursday,Friday and Saturday (7 hours).
Omg this. I don’t like my current site , which is a delivery station
What does the "19h" you said minimum hours to work is 4 so it cant be that and i doubt theyd cap your hours at 19.. kinda confusing
Min hours is 4 hours per week. 19h classifies that you are Flex part time.
I have a question? I work Mon-Thur for another job could I do this job as a second job like on the weekend?
You could. You choose your own shifts.
Just got done with drug test. I'm thinking my schedule will be MWF 9am to 2pm then maybe comeback 4pm to 9 pm... is this possible?
Have you seen if they offer those shift times at your warehouse?
@@financialfearlessblackgirl not yet. Orientation dec 3,4,5... hoping it will be available

Good luck to you!
The long shift as in the 10 hours? Does flex allow like a 4-6 hour shift by chance?

How Amazing are you 😊
Thank you!
So can you do Amazon flex deliveries and warehouse?
I am not sure if you can do both

Are flex time or part time employees eligible for health insurance? If so, is it immediate? Thank you!
Reduced Flex Time is eligible for health insurance. I made a more recent video about that position.
@@financialfearlessblackgirl thank you 😊
@@financialfearlessblackgirlcan u go from 19hr to 30 hr?
Did you ever experienced reduced week job listing or was the work always steady?
It fluctuates based on the needs of the facility
wait so you can work over 19 hours with flex? And i heard that some shifts offer more pay is that true?
Yes to both. It depends on your warehouse the amount of hours you are capped at (how much you can work).
Thank you for this information im thinking about joining amazon inflation is a mf right now
Best of luck!
Is pc really better to get shifts
Are you meaning part time for “pc”?
Thanks for the info
but I just have question is it like I can pick any time any day a week Or time is flexible and days are not?
Any time , any day once the schedule posts
I can’t get hours bro
Smh I’m so sorry to hear that, that means that have too many flex people staffed
Very good detaliked explanation. I have been thinking about going back to Amz but to a different warehouse. I was at the grocery warehouse as flex time before and i refuse to do 5 hours and that -15 degrees freezer is brutal even for 1 hr. Im looking for 4 hr or less flex shifts.

No I didn’t get fired. You don’t have to tell anyone , just drop the shift. You will get a point (s) though
@@financialfearlessblackgirlhow many points did you get for the two days ?
I just need to know if it’s hard to get the shifts.
Yes and no , I explain in the video
Thank you for your video. Can a flex worker work 40 hours a week if it is available?
Yes , if it’s available. Your weekly cap , which is located in the A to Z app , will tell you how many hours are are able to schedule for that week
@Braden-gc8lp Thank you for your reply.
@Braden-gc8lpdo you find it hard to get shifts since they go by so fast?
Do they allow overtime?
Most warehouses do allow OT.
If the cap is 60 hours and you work that then yes
So theres no upt?
no
I just had PTO
I was full time few months ago but I’m applying for a flex schedule, can you please tell me what are the differences between full-time and flex? Do you get PTO, vacations and UPT?
You don’t get upt on the flex schedule
You get PTO , but only 15 mins per 4 hours shift at my facility. No UPT.
And what about vacation time?
@@mschocolatelove8934 thanks for the info
@@financialfearlessblackgirl thank you for replying :)
Do you get paid fully the days your work? Or how does that work
Yes you get full pay. If you get their pay card , you can access your money same day
I have this but I don’t see any jobs on the app
Then at the time there aren’t any jobs available you have to check on it every day
I got hied for flex but its at a 10hr warehouse. I have to do 3 days of training or 10.5hrs a day!! Brutal. I never intend to even work an 8hr shift, thats why i chose flex.
That’s not flex that you chose then. Flex is flexible scheduling. If you say you chose that & are 100% sure , speak to HR.
@@financialfearlessblackgirl Its just for the 3 days of training but still. For someone looking for Flex work part time, to require them to do 3 10's out the gate is brutal.
@@juliesturdy2942 I applied and mine says flexible (30hr) is that what yours said?
@@kayleejayne6.040 Mine said >19hrs. We were told we have to pick up at least 1 5hr shift a week. the 19 was arbitrary. it equates to 20hrs a month. Not sure about your 30 are you maybe flex part time? It could mean 30hr/week or it could be 30hrs a month. They do not make it clear on the posting board.
I applied for the 19h flex and my 3 day training is 7am to 5:30pm too
Is Flex Time the same as flexible shift??
Flex 19 hr , yes
So we have to work Atleast one shift a week?
I explained in the video
Yes if you want to.. be off the rest of the week
@@Mina.15 I just found out some jobs are different and you have to work certain amount of hours a week or else you’ll lose a point
What is the most hours you can work with flex time?
It depends on your facility
Can you work 4 hours a day?
Yes if that’s what shift u pick
How do I find the minimum hours I can work a week on the a to z app
It's on the home page where your current number of hours are listed
do you still get holiday pay,vto, pto, and upt?
Yes to all
