“I love the fact that Value Amazing is a companywide program that highlights allegiants core values so that we can recognize agents that embody what makes allegiant a great company to work for.”
JH

Joseph H.

Ground Operations Supervisor

“The navigation is a little tricky depending on how I access the recognize portal (recognize app, teams, paylocity), but once I'm in and browse through the platform its smooth sailing from there.”
AP

Angela P.

Property Manager

Pros

“I love that they receive a text message when they are sent a gift card (due to our workday integration) and I also love that we can print out a QR code so that they can redeem that way versus having to check their email.”
HM

HAYLEY M.

Manager, Supply Chain Employee Enablement

“With our previous digital gift card vendor, we could send gifts in pounds, euros, etc. and it would show that amount on the front end prior to sending (e.g. if I was sending a $100 value GC in pounds, it would charge me $75 USD and convert the funds before I hit send.).”
HM

HAYLEY M.

Manager, Supply Chain Employee Enablement

“Guusto is a leadibg recognition and rewards platform that helps organizations build great workplace cultures by making it easy to celebrate wins, reward great work, and recognize contributions in meaningful ways.”

“I don't have anything bad to say about it. Except for when I tried to redeem an e-gift card it was difficult to use online and at the store.”
KS

Kham S.

“To get gift cards, they do not like having to pay $3 additional.”
RR

Rogelio R.

SUNDEEP S.

Pharmacy asssiatnt

“There really isn't much to dislike about the platform. If I had to pick something, I would say that the mobile web interface can occasionally feel just a tiny bit slow to load when you are trying to quickly redeem a card on the go, but it's a minor issue.”
