Thank you for your years of service to our company! Your dedication is appreciated. We understand that our organization is growing quickly and many departments are feeling some growth pains. Please know that we recognize this and are making every effort to keep up with this growth! There are several factors that are considered when it comes to pay. In the event an associate has the same title in the same regions there may be some inconsistency. We look at each individual in every scenario and make recommendation regarding compensation from that vantage.
