Is this because new hires who were on reserve are leaving? Or are we just running super lean on reserves compared to before? I have seen more premium recently and only seen 1 or 2 people on C and D reserve for some reason, CS is moving people to B and E a lot as well.
I personally had 2 people from my class leave in the past couple weeks, so I am sure more are doing so as well, we are under 2k on FLICA, bordering where newhire classes of 30 wont be pushing us over 2k every month anymore. I guess this is probably attributed to what I am seeing with the reserves, because it seems like CS is running around constantly trying to figure stuff out since they dont have enough reserves (a CS told me that on the phone yesterday, he said it was really busy and they dont have enough reserves).
Keep in mind the grid reflects reserves that have been used too. I’m my base the grid is approx 75% green next month and I’ve only been used 4 days on RSV so far this month. I have noticed an uptick in premium though, and hopefully with the slow down in hiring the company gets caught with their pants down and premium goes through the roof this summer.
