I’m sorry to read of your experience at AIR MILES. I’d love to address what we are doing to avoid this situation for future Associates. We encourage a culture that is safe and inclusive and for all Associates to share their ideas, opinions, and feedback. I am sorry that you experienced situations where this was not the case. Being in a Customer Care role, calls are often monitored to provide Associates with coaching, training, and feedback to help them provide the best Collector experience possible, while equipping agents with the tools and knowledge to answer the many different types of questions Collectors ask. One of our corporate Values is that “we own our successes and our misses.” I would encourage any Associate that has feedback and would like to see things done differently to speak with their Leader about it directly. Another priority of ours is work-life balance and mental health – we encourage Associates to use the tools that we provide to help them feel their best at work. All our Associates have access to the entire Headspace library, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy via BEACON and our flexible benefit program. Our hope is that these benefits in combination with a permanent work from home set-up for Customer Care Associates allows them the opportunity to prioritize health and wellness as much as possible. Thank you for your review. Dimitri Benak, VP of People and Culture

Lots of different roles within the chain of command so different objectives are being passed down Sometimes hard to feel if you're making a difference

Thank you for the positive feedback. Our Associates are at the heart of our strong company culture and are truly what makes AIR MILES such a great place to work! We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the benefits and events offered to our Associates, as well as our remote-first working model. We appreciate your perspective on feeling as though your work makes a difference. We strongly believe that our people are our greatest asset and that the work done at all levels of the organization contributes to our success as a business. During our January Business Update, our Executive team shared our Strategic Imperatives for 2023 and the ways we will continue to scale as an organization to help Associates under the "big picture" and where their role fits in. We also recently introduced a new Goal Setting process to better align with our quarterly planning process, and to encourage more regular conversations about goals between Leaders and Associates. For Associates with questions regarding the impact of their role, we encourage you to speak to your leader or Manager Once Removed for guidance. Thanks again for your feedback, and all the best.
