Flat rate system, when there is no work life gets stressful.

Thank you for your review and comments. As you know, as a Technician working in a flat rate system, you have the ability to actually earn more than your standard hourly rate through gain time. The more efficient a Technician works, the more opportunity there is for increased pay through gain time. Keeping our Customers up and running is an important part of our purpose and we know that takes commitment and dedicated effort. We strive to do this while still providing a quality work-life balance to our employees.

Thank you for your feedback. The advice to management is very helpful. We are close to launching a new Performance Management tool and process designed to provide better feedback and interaction between employees and their supervisors. The Learning & Development department is building a Foundational Leadership program that will address financial management process improvement. Our annual survey tool, Our Voice, is a great way to provide 360 degree feedback, which I hope you had the opportunity to participate in. Communication is key focus for the Company and our survey results tell us we continue to make great strides in improvement in this area. We are committed to continue to get better in this area.
