The first place to check is the permissions matrix for the Pending state in 
your workflow. You want it set so that only the Reviewer and Owner roles have 
the appropriate 'View' permission set on it. I usually set the common, 
visible state to use acquisition and set all the intermediate states like 
'Pending' and so forth explicitly in order to keep these relationships clear.
