That should be drwxrws--- . The fact that it's a capital S
suggests there isn't execute permission for the group.

chmod g+x rw should fix it, but it's probably safer to do
chmod g-s rw to take the setgid bit off; ls -l to confirm
there's no execute permission; then chmod g+x rw and
chmod g+s rw to set everything correctly.

But chmod g+x rw will work. :)
