Toxic

Pros

The people who work there are great to talk to, both in and out of the office

Cons

This place is toxic. Management doesn’t listen to their employees. They put way too much on everyone’s plate and when someone speaks out, their response is “stop complaining.”

Overall a great place to work

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Over the past few years there was a noticeable emphasis on retaining good talent. Family feel even though it is a larger company. Management also does a good job of listening to feedback provided to take steps to improve the department.

Cons

Some people are in positions because they are married or related to someone important within the company. Some of these people have more than earned the position they are in and are assets to the company, those that did not could make your job very difficult.

Cowan Systems Response

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We really appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review.
