Thank you for taking time to post a review of our organization. We are pleased to see that our core values are at the foundation of daily operations. This is truly impressive! We are disappointed to hear that the current staffing structure is not conducive to the type of work life balance we believe all associates at CWS should enjoy. At CWS, we believe that candid and transparent conversations are one of the best ways to affect change, because of this belief, we are confident that if you speak with your supervisor you will see improvement in this area
