We appreciate you taking the time to share your perspective. The company's philosophy is to design and administer total pay in alignment with the external labor markets in which we compete for talent. Decisions about annual compensation changes are based on employee performance levels and business results.

Bad contact center environment. Back to back calls every day. They only discuss call times and never what leads to the numbers.
