General Manager Joe Loftus on showing employees that they are valued: "We like to catch each other going above and beyond helping out one another at our dealership by giving out Rev Ups -- a written message of thanks that then goes into a monthly drawing for a chance to win a Bergstrom gift certificate and then into a yearly drawing for a chance to win a complete detailing of the team member's personal vehicle."
President Tim Bergstrom on a change in response to staff requests: "Bergstrom introduced a comprehensive Internet-based system for team members to track and receive incentives for wellness activities. Team members who reach pre-established levels in the wellness program are eligible for cash prizes; gift cards to local eateries, department stores and gas stations; and points toward buying exercise equipment and accessories. Spouses and family members are even able to enjoy many of these rewards."
