RealPage Response
8yThank you for your post. I'm glad that you like your team and leader as that is really important. Now on to the cons. You mentioned that we laid off half of the employees after the merger was complete. The facts are there are 210 FTEs and 13 Supplemental employees committed to On-Site. Over the past 9 months since we have joined forces 11 positions were eliminated from the system. In addition, we have had some voluntary turnover which is to expected any time companies combined forces. We are also in the process of muscling up On-Site and have recently approved 32 requisitions to handle the increase in business volume. Of the 32 positions 31 are going to be in the United States.
Now lets discuss benefits, what you failed to mention was the benefit premiums that you were paying have significantly dropped. Your deductible did go up. There were some changes with the medical plan when you were transitioned into RealPage benefits. The difference in dollar amount in the RealPage plan varied depending on what On-Site plan you were enrolled in. The RealPage in-network deductible is a little higher, but the out-of- pocket maximum is equal to or lower than the On-Site plan. While you did have a HMO plan available to you with traditional copays, the monthly rates were much higher. Under the consumer-driven health plan, the monthly rates are considerably lower, and RealPage offers an employer contribution to your Health Savings Account in order to help offset some of the deductible.
In 2019, we are going to put in a blended plan with a lower deductible and higher premiums. Hopefully that will meet your needs.
Your advice is spot on and will be shared. When leaders come to the site they should spend a considerable amount of time with the employees and not just go to conference rooms. To support the integration we have assigned a senior leader to the Campbell office. I will make mention to him to circulate more. Please call me or Tiffany at any time. Sincerely, Kurt Twining x4016
