Fragomen reviews

Upper-management is so worried about maintaining their bonuses that they are working the rank and file to the bone. With no new hiring, despite a significant increase in business, there is no opportunity for upward mobility. Also, while the overtime does help to make up for only getting one small raise in the last two years, it would be nice to not feel under constant stress.

You'll work with good, smart people, but the place turns people paranoid due to the total and overwhelming lack of loyalty shown by upper management for their workers. Don't trust anyone with a higher pay grade. It's extremely cutthroat, and heads roll with regularity. Independent thought is not appreciated, even if it results in a better way of getting something done. Overall, the place is somewhat Orwellian. Entirely too much kissing up to the clients at the expense of the employees, and the clients... good lord, the clients. Between them and your bosses you'll feel like an infantryman in the Russian army. Most of the clients suck but you'll swallow their abuse and smile; otherwise, you're fired. Best advice is to do your time and then move on to better opportunities as soon as your resume's had enough FDBL, as the lifers in the office look worn and haggard.
