Powerful cliques and their negative aspects

Pros

Lol, it's funny that most of these reviews mention free snacks. Ask yourself honestly if a free snack a day would keep you at a company and if that is true, then where are your expectations! The schedule is flexible, that is the greatest benefit.

Cons

Most of the 'negative' reviews talk about the 'cliques' in Phoenix. The 'old timers' are powerful and untouchable. Even the 'positive' reviews show how forceful and in power they are by asking the CEO to stand aside and basically let them take control of the company. That would be a big mistake. At some point in time those same 'cliques' stand in the way of any new blood or ideas coming into the company. But at this time you must report and be held accountable to those 'cliques' because there is no independent HR dept reporting to the CEO.

Pros

There have been multiple reviews on this site about the CEO trying to coerce positive reviews from people. Clearly these people are part of the problem we have at the company. Here is the email verbatim, you can decide for yourself: What I’d like to request is that you all please take the time to post your own Glassdoor review of PSW • To be clear, I am not asking for anyone to post a review they don’t stand behind. Give PSW a good or bad review – it is totally up to you • What I am asking for is that you all make a special effort to participate (it would be great if we could achieve a 75% participation rate as we do when we are annually nominated for “Best Places to Work”) so that the public perception of PSW is more balanced

Cons

Apparently we have some people in our company with extremely poor reading comprehension skills. My experience tells me that the people that are undercompensated are the underperformers. I think people need to be more honest with themselves about their abilities.

Employees are talking, but it's CEO listening?

Pros

The perks are great. Always have drinks and snacks on hand. Try to get team building and morale up by doing company activities.

Cons

All of the "positive" reviews that are posted were coerced into by the CEO with a company wide email saying to go on the site and put positive comments up. This just goes to show that the CEO is saving face and trying keep potential employees from seeing how bad the company treats the employees.
