My experience has been that most company shops pay their techs based on the GM repair manual allocated hours for each repair type. The tech gets paid based on the hours allocated, if he gets it done more quickly, then he can go to the next job and earns a bit more money. If it takes him longer, then he gets paid less because he cannot do multiple tasks in a shorter period of time.
Again, in my experience, the largest variable is the rate that the dealer charges per hour. I have seen it go from $50 an hour to $150 an hour. The tech gets half or less of the hourly charge rate, the remainder going to the dealer.
