Pros

Awesome work from home program Great Co workers Training

Cons

Customer care leaders and coaches are assorted quality. Extremely Stressful environment, job performance is partly based on what your collectors say about you which wait times, airline policy etc are all beyond your control. The surveys are a waste of money since we are monitored to death. Big divide between treatment of corporate and call centre. (they get free snacks, catered events etc.) Wages are low, uncertainty about future because of SLT shakeup and the rumours of selling airmiles Technology is outdated

Thanks for taking time to share your point of view. We too are proud of the great talent at AIR MILES. Our Work from Home program for our Care Associates allows for many benefits including increased work-life balance, time with family, comfort of working in your own space, as well as positive impacts to the environment. I’m glad to hear you’re enjoying it. I appreciate that you value the training that we offer at AIR MILES. Our commitment and approach to training focuses on courses that help Associates enhance their capabilities to maximize performance as individuals, within their teams and to support the overall growth of the business. We invest in our learning and career development platforms to give our associates the tools they need to succeed. In reading over your list of cons and advice to management, let me first start off by thanking you for providing this insight. I understand that the environment is sometimes stressful, especially this year due to unforeseen circumstances resulting from COVID-19. Creating a world class experience for our Collectors is important for us and we are proud to be recognized in the top 5% of call centres in Canada for this reason. With respect to the surveys we send out several times a year, we do this to better understand what’s working well and areas to affect positive change. We take the time to listen and put feedback into motion. We believe celebrating our Associates is essential to our business. Based on roles, location and logistics how we celebrate may look different but nonetheless we find ways to celebrate wins, milestones or ‘just for fun’ and we take a lot of pride in giving you something to brag about, like the flexibility our Call Centre has to work from home 100% of the time. I know that change can cause uncertainty and last year was a big year for our company where we made critical changes to our business. With these changes, however, we are better positioned to deliver on our goals of enhancing our technical capabilities and improving our Collector experience to drive our mission of Rewarding Canadians Every Day. We are excited about the direction we are heading in, and for what’s to come. Again, I appreciate you taking the time to provide feedback. Thank you for all that you do.

Thanks for taking the time to share your perspective; we appreciate your feedback and I know people value hearing from current Associates. Leadership development is important to us and is a critical component of our culture, so I’m happy to hear that you have seen a positive impact from our Leaders. We care about all our Associates and provide resources to invest in their growth and development. We don’t want to just be ‘good enough’, we’re always striving to be better and we want to help our Associates get there, and celebrate them along the way. I appreciate you calling that out. In regards to your comment on pay, market data helps us ensure that our salary ranges remain competitive and our Total Rewards team reviews market changes regularly making updates to our salary ranges as necessary to keep us competitive. In addition to salary we offer many other perks and rewards to recognize the hard work of our Associates. We’ll keep working hard to ensure AIR MILES remains a great place to work. Thank you for all that you do, and thanks again for taking the time to provide feedback. Dimitri Benak VP, People and Culture
