SWCA Operations Department Employee Reviews

What do you like best about the leadership team?

Leadership Reviews

they are all avaialble for any questions

Review from Operations Dept

They are approachable and accessible.

Review from Operations Dept

The Senior Leadership Team is engaged at all levels of our company.

Review from Operations Dept

I believe they are accessible and approachable.

Review from Operations Dept

The leadership team is very approachable and genuinely care about employees. I've never seen a senior leadership team that is so accessible and invested in connecting with staff at all levels.

Review from Operations Dept

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership Reviews

Managing growth at upper levels of leadership to allow more competitive pay practices for the staff that are writing proposals and billing hours to clients. I would like to see individuals at the Director and VP (and to a degree, SVP) level leading by example by doing project work.

Review from Operations Dept

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Compensation Reviews

The ESOP is the best part about the compensation package.

Review from Operations Dept

I think the benefits are good.

Review from Operations Dept

It is pretty impressive that 6% of our total compensation is automatically deposited in our retirement savings. Most companies require you to put up 3% to receive a matching contribution. Not here - the company automatically makes those awards as part of the Employee Stock Ownership Program.

Review from Operations Dept

The fact that we are an employee owned firm is a big deal. I've built my retirement account without me having to first commit portion of my paycheck as you see with many organizations which rely on 401(k) programs.

Review from Operations Dept

Fair pay and our ESOP

Review from Operations Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

I'm told other companies pay more for similar roles.

Review from Operations Dept

Based on other positions posted online I feel we are on the lower side for pay and our benefits are similar to other companies, so nothing really stands out as above and beyond.

Review from Operations Dept

SWCA pays less than most all other firms providing the same services.

Review from Operations Dept

I am likely the lowest paid team lead in the company. There's such a disconnect between employees holding similar roles and doing the same job. Unless you complain about not being paid what your coworkers are, nothing happens.

Review from Operations Dept

I received a promotion which came with a raise (not salary adjustment) that I believe doesn't match my worth. My manager makes disproportionately more than I do, and I feel like I do similar amount of work and make a bigger impact in our office. More PTO, more $, and more support to all in group.

Review from Operations Dept

What are some of the best things about your team?

Team Reviews

Invested in the same company culture and fostering that.

Review from Operations Dept

They are hardworking, professional, and kind.

Review from Operations Dept

The resource expertise and support I receive. They are a fun bunch too!

Review from Operations Dept

They are committed, innovative and reliable.

Review from Operations Dept

My team is professional, empathetic, and hardworking.

Review from Operations Dept

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Team Reviews

I never really interact with many of my coworkers so it sort of feels like I am on an island

Review from Operations Dept

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Environment Reviews

There is a sense that we are "in this together" at SWCA.

Review from Operations Dept

The focus on employee health, safety and well-being.

Review from Operations Dept

We're in it together through challenges and achievements!

Review from Operations Dept

SWCA has created an environment where you can stick your head out with ideas and people will listen.

Review from Operations Dept

I continue to be astounded at the level of collegiality and collaboration here. I'd be hard pressed to identify even a handful of "jerks" at this company. That is rare. People who value and respect one another come and stay here.

What did you like most about the interview process?

Interviews Reviews

Our in-house talent acquisition staff members are responsive and extremely helpful to both perspective staff members and hiring managers.

Review from Operations Dept

Process was thorough but not painful. There has been a multi-stage process with a panel or team, so there were multiple voices at the table.

Review from Operations Dept

was a conversation about how I would approach scenarios and not an interrogation of my skill set

Review from Operations Dept

collaboration with the hiring group to create a more well-rounded interview process.
