Has anyone taken the eri yet this year. I was kind of looking forward to it.
Been taking it for ten years, still waiting for the improvements.
I was under the impression that the results from the ERI were used (in part) to determine the bonuses given to our supervisors. Also, does anyone else take advantage of the 300 characters of text available on the ERI?
I had to condense mine last year,Its good that I cant rant longer.Yes, I have composed an essay the last few years. I think they boosted the character count up to 600 as of last year. It's the only way you can slam your center manager if you are giving positive scores to your on-car sup.
No ERI in 2008.Our driver said......no more ERI here.
My opinion is that its completely useless and a waste of company resources. Nothing is ever improved in an area that is negatively rated.
I take it every year and give the same answers every year. I give good scores because the outcome reflects on my immediate supervisor. I know he has little say in how the center should be managed. I do know that when he is out or on vacation our group suffers.
When he's in we get help. When he's in heavy pick-ups get swept and all the bases are covered. When he is out, we don't get help and the pick-ups are left to the driver even when it will blow his truck out.
This is why I give positive responses on the ERI. Things are better when my sup. is in and worse when he's out. Its that simple.
As for people who refuse to take it. Why refuse? The company is paying you and it will be the easiest money we will ever make legitimately.
