Pros

Benefits are good if you’re single. Good work life balance.

Cons

Remember what high school was like? Well this place is just like that. There are so many “cliques” in this company, if you do not fit into one you will not last. The feeling of “Family” is pushed so much and this place is far from a family because you will fear for your job constantly. You are told you’re able to work remotely if sick but it’s an issue if you do. Management wants thing done a certain way but you are never trained correctly. Everyone in there has a different way of doing things and no matter what you turn in it will be wrong to a degree. Supervisors will throw you under the bus if things do not go their way. The turnover rate in this place is insane, I have seen at least 40 people come and go in my time at KCW and it wasn’t long. If you put in your two week notice you will be terminated unless you are in a clique that worships upper management. Outside fundraising events are pushed on you so much that you feel like it’s mandatory to donate or to volunteer. Management will take up two parking spaces but if an employee parks incorrectly they’re made to move their vehicle. Supervisors talk down to certain people working under them. When a negative review is posted online it’s discussed and you are asked numerous times to leave positive reviews.

Thank you for your comments. KCW has been in business since 1979, and our employee turnover is less than half our industry’s average. We are committed to providing a great working environment for all our team members. We are sorry you feel you were not a good fit for our company and culture.

Pros

I have never worked somewhere that cares as much as KCW. The Executive Team really cares about the employees, and they want to offer things that the employees want. The employees all get along and are very friendly. There are many after-hours events and parties. Work-life balance is respected, especially for parents. You can move up quickly if you work hard.

Cons

Health insurance is a little expensive
