Pros

Industry leader in on demand translation services and spearheading their deployment to the market. Looking to leverage content in new ways, to new places to create niche markets.

Cons

Over tasked by upper management who hand-off unrealistic expectations. Continual addition of work, without addition of staff. New Hires quickly eclipse foundational team members, the "new kid" syndrom. Foundation staff leaving in droves, letting the new staff ruin the business.

Pros

Fully work from home job

Cons

Work-life-balance (the way tasks availability works makes it so that you have to stay home most of the day to get hours) Pay (the pay is not competitive at all) Poor management (little to no communication and frequently overhiring, which adds to the lack of available work) Benefits (benefits are only available if you work a certain amount of hours per year, even if they do not have tasks available frequently) Vacation time (vacation time is awarded similarly to the way benefits work. Therefore your vacations are lessened by when task availability decreases) Lack of clarity (company stages meetings under the guise of transparency, but do not address worker concerns, up to and including concerns over lack of work) Mass layoffs (company does mass layoffs frequently, sending out termination emails to multiple employees at once periodically, which adds to general stress and uncertainty about job stability)
