Sweetwater reviews

Week days can be slow

It's not a boutique. It's not a family. It a giant call center just like any other multi-billion dollar company. They indoctrinate you that everything is the "Sweetwater Difference", but management hired a ton of people from the competition that made it the same just with faster shipping and better software. The benefits are very expensive especially for family coverage. They self insure so everything could be covered with out the hassles but management decided they like making money off the money in the insurance pool rather than taking care of their employees. Management piled on rules and more rules because god forbid they actually have a meaningful conversation with an individual employee. All the potential fun and joy was squeezed out long ago. It's like a giant factory where the machines were replaced by cubicles. Management has a one size fits all style that favors obedience to the rules over any new ideas. The culture is oppressive and stiffling to creativity and individuality. They love hiring the Debt Slaves of recent college graduates with the shackles of their student debt keeping them in their place with mouths shut.
