glass america?

are they ok to work for?

Re: glass america?

They have a weird pay structure. 40/30/25 i think and like $16 an hour base. Working Saturdays... so the 40 I am told is insurance or cash the $30 is fleet jobs or R*I (so $15 per pull and put) and $25 for repairs....

My old tech went to work for Gerber then they flipped him to this plan he quit I don't blame him!

Re: glass america?

I work in the Atlanta market and I know that a lot of technicians are leaving the company, not just here, but all surrounding areas, so probably not the best place to work.

Re: glass america?

Did you work there when it was not on the PPP plan?

Re: glass america?

looking in the Lafayette area,anything but safelite.

Re: glass america?

So if there pay is based on the job and not the hour are they not subcontracting out the work?

Re: glass america?

Must be different in Tenn.,i know people there and they are not payed by the job.They are hourly or salary.

Re: glass america?

From what I understand it can be different by market. Most of the old GA markets still pay hourly but the Gerber markets use some type of PPP plan.

Re: glass america?

Been working at Glasss America / Gerber for over 4 years. Great company and great pay. making about $1500 a week on production pay plan...

Re: glass america?

perhaps if you have a small radius like 20 miles sure you could hammer it... so at 1500 a week, you have to be doing 8 jobs a day @ 40 each ?? so lets say you are doing 40 % insurance then how many are you doing a day?

how many miles are you driving and how many days a week are you working?

Do they operate the two parts differently?

Re: glass america?

I think they operated differently in Atlanta for a short period and then Gerber closed the glass shops and went with the body shop/glass shop idea. From what I hear its a ppp pay structure very similar to Safelie.

Re: glass america?

I'm hearing rumors of Belron in negotiations with Gerber to buy the glass division of Gerber.

Re: glass america?

That is absolute Bull****.

Fact.

Re: glass america?

Sad to see Glass America go to PPP. They were probably the last corporate auto glass company that I would have considered going to work for.

That would be bad,the last thing i want is to work for safelite!!

Re: glass america?

Gerber hates safelite and soon will be there biggest national competitor.

Everybody who sold out to Safelite hated them everyday of their lives, until they put a few more ZEROS on the end of the number on the check.
Ooops...

Re: glass america?

Re: glass america?

Re: glass america?

Of course they do all over... Like Saint Louis...

Re: glass america?

Storefronts is not a big deal to me,just being a good place to work is my concern.

Re: glass america?

don't they operate out of body shops now?

Re: glass america?

Considering opportunity in Richmond Virginia with Glass America, they offered me an hourly rate or the PPP its my decision. They have a local shop so I am seriously thinking of making the move.

Re: glass america?

Where is the local richmond shop? Where are you making the move from?
