Pros

Chiropractor The product works The office looks nice

Cons

Pay Food The CEO has shiny ball syndrome so nothing is ever committed to for more than a few weeks. When it doesn’t work he blames his employees and changes directions. If he could commit to something for longer than a week there would be success. A slap in the face to throw a huge Christmas party, fly out the California office, and pay for Ludacris to perform. We all would rather make a comfortable living than have bad catered food and flashy parties. In office.

Hello! Thank you for the review, I am so sorry you feel that Review Wave has not met your expectations. We worked consistently to make sure all feedback is received and that we as a company are always growing. As with all quickly growing companies, we are always looking for ways to streamline and improve our processes internally and externally to provide the best employee & client experience. Occasionally, this does result in a change in direction; however it is always to the benefit of the company and everyone incorporated within it. I am also so sorry to hear that you did not enjoy the company Holiday Party. Our leadership and administrative team is always looking to improve their processes and provide the best company sponsored events as possible in order to fully appreciate and celebrate our employees' accomplishments. In addition, to providing above average company events our team is also continuously looking at average pay rates within the tech and sales industry to ensure that we are providing wages that are above average and competitive. Feel free to to reach out at any time to myself at katelyn@reviewwave.com with additional feedback and suggestions. I'd love to work with you to make Review Wave the very best company for our employees and all the clients we serve. - Katelyn, HR Specialist

Pros

In-House Chiropractor, Provided Lunch, Nice Office, Great Co-Workers, Fun Environment and Upward Mobility. The upward mobility is hyper-dependent on the individual and the work they put in. Promotions are not given at this company, they are earned through continuous and consistent great work.

Cons

This is not an environment where you can coast. You have expectations of work to be done every day, week and month and you are held accountable to those metrics.

Pros

You develop thick skin fast.

Cons

If you are considering working here, please seriously protect your mental health and think twice. Aloha is emotional exhaustion disguised as hustle culture. You are not treated like a human being here, you are treated like a metric. Instead of constructive coaching, the environment feels centered around tearing employees down, creating anxiety, and keeping people in a constant state of stress and fear. Metrics and expectations are constantly changing, making it feel nearly impossible to ever truly succeed or feel accomplished no matter how hard you work. I personally experienced a major decline in my mental health while working here, and I was far from the only one. Burnout, anxiety, and emotional exhaustion felt normalized rather than addressed. Many employees looked mentally drained, yet were blamed for “not wanting it bad enough”. The CEO creates an environment built on fear, pressure, and financial insecurity rather than genuine leadership or mentorship. Motivation often felt rooted in making employees feel replaceable. The CEO cares about his personal image, money, and status while employees were left mentally and emotionally drained. The overall culture often felt immature, negative, and unprofessional. The gossip, disrespect, constant negativity, and behavior from upper management felt more like high school drama than a professional workplace. It created an environment where employees felt uncomfortable, unsupported, and emotionally exhausted before the workday was even over. There are far healthier companies where you can receive strong coaching, better compensation, real career growth, work-life balance, and leadership that actually values employees as people instead of production numbers. Save yourself.
