Cons, as listed above are : 1. Insurance should be more affordable. 2. Personal days for doctor appointments should be given monthly without disturbing the guaranteed 36 hours. 3. The GPS system that totals your points needs to be ultimately reviewed. While I do believe drivers and passengers should be monitored while being issued an company vehicle, I also believe that the company is focusing in unrealistic expectations and manners by pushing said numbers and averages down the throats of the management without guidelines , realistic guidelines, in the road ways being exhibited. Meaning, in realistic driving environments there is no way to avoid daily most of the factors implemented. Such as, hard breaking. Hard breaking in heavy traffic? Hard breaking when animals run in front of you, hard breaking to avoid collision. Idoling , engine idoling in extreme conditions, such as, cold snaps, deep winter, heat warnings indexed in summer months, thunderstorms, etc. In natural said events, where the employee needs warmth or coolness or shelter. This needs to be reviewed. Understanding that safety is important, most employees I've spoken to do not care about the monitor system as much as the point system and the standards set. The company seems to be focusing more in these points, then actually teaching safety... that being said, safety could be a course set through the company on driving, if these standards in excellence are to be implied . Another con, has been the tablets, the new Skedelo system has been an complete annoyance to our customers. Between corporate trying to take care of scheduling and our customers, there has been uproar and disappointment more often then not. More often, corporate , dealing with scheduling has been rude and disconnected with the employees in the phone, then helpful. Problems with scheduling include call offs, cancellations and confirming work texts via personal phones. Also completing tasks on the tablets through out the day.
