Salem, OR Call Center
This place should have been shut down at least a year ago. It's a dead-weight on the company. I'm almost certain that everyone here wants it closed down. Might as well exit Oregon all at the same time.

Exceeds to meets
I know so many people who where exceeds or continually exceeds who are now rated as meets. What’s up with that? Is it to reduce bonus dollars? In this another Chucky thing???
