XYZ Mobile is a major car company. We manufacture our own line of cars and
trucks along with the parts needed to fix and accessorize them. We have everything from
a new engine to mud flaps. The demographics of my employees are men and women
ranging in age from 18 to 65.
XYZ Mobile has roughly 800 employees in our main branch and has several other
branches around the United States. We employ thousands of people thru out the United
States and have been on the 100 Best Companies to Work For list several years in a row.
Our factories run 24 hours a day and our dealerships vary by city and establishment.
To keep our employees happy and loyal we offer an extensive benefits package that is
standard policy for all of our establishments. At XYZ Mobile we strive to have a low
turnover rate, with happy satisfied employees. As all of our employees are very important
to us and to return the favor we give out several incentive bonuses as well each year. We
hope to keep each and every one of our employees worry free so that they can perform at
tip top mental standards daily without concern. Each establishment also has an Employee
of the Month to characterize the employees we feel are doing exceptionally well at their
area of expertise.
Benefits given to all employees follow all legalities with in the United States. This
includes but is not limited to the Social Security Act, Medicare Act, Workers
2. Compensation and Unemployment Insurance Acts. Other benefits included in the XYZ

Paid Holidays, Vacation Time, Paid Time Off, Commission based on salary for the
dealership workers, Weekly Incentive Programs (example: finish over 100% of your

day probationary period. Part time employees are not eligible for benefits but are still
eligible for the referral bonus, weekly incentive programs, commission, and relocation
benefits. Full time employees may choose between single coverage and family coverage

Paid Time Off Benefits: Employees eligible for Paid Time Off benefits are offered 10
days of paid time off thru a one year period starting the date of hire. Paid time off days
can be used for what ever the employee deems fit however, need to be requested at least
two weeks in advance of the time wanted off and are not always accepted due to
scheduling concerns. Sick days or when an employee calls in Paid Time Off is also used
to fill the missed hours unless otherwise informed in writing by the employee.

regular pay amount on Christmas, New Years Day, Thanksgiving, and the Fourth of July.

per year. Vacation time needs to be used within a year of employees yearly start date in

expected and are to be discussed at each individual branch with the employee, Financial
Manager, and Branch Manager.
