Pros

I met a few really great people that I consider friends for life.

Cons

Too much to list but in a nutshell, horrible management who only cares about profit and cares nothing about the people. Owners and Leadership are very unethical people and instill that same culture. You are only valued if you started with them from the beginning and you don’t challenge their beliefs or requests. And the only reason you see a response to all of the reviews, even the negative ones, is so that they meet the criteria to get on Glassdoor’s BPW list. They also incentivize for positive feedback. Don’t be fooled. These responses are all just formality and they do not take any of the feedback seriously to improve themselves. I was on the front lines of assisting with Glassdoor so I am speaking from direct knowledge.

Beware No Longer Remote

Pros

Great teammates. I can stick to my work and not have to worry about other things.

Cons

The promise of remote work which was a big factor in accepting the job and it is likely going away. It was pitched as remote, which was a major factor in my decision and I accepted lower salary because of that. It feels like a bait and switch.

We appreciate the time you took to share your perspective on working at New Western. It’s unfortunate that the shift in remote-work expectations has been frustrating for you, especially noting how you shared it was a factor was in your decision. We understand how impactful changes like this can be and will keep this perspective in mind as we continue to balance the need for work arrangements that promote cohesiveness and productivity with the realities of how those decisions impact our team members. That said, we're so glad you see the value your great teammates bring to you and your work and that you love your job. We hope you remain with us for many years to come.
