Pros

My immediate manager was a good guy, and smart. Wisely, he has since moved on. Training was decent. Most colleagues were pleasant.

Cons

The PMO has a lot of redundancies, structurewise. Things seem disorganized and are not at all streamlined. Some senior managers add no value whatsoever and seem to exist to ask pointless questions and pull rank. The tech stack is appallingly disjointed: some of it is OK, but it does include one of the worst, most antiquated translation tool user interfaces I've ever seen... genuinely horrific to work with. There are too many cooks and too many hand-offs. In particular, a lot of the QA checks aren't so much QA checks as hoop-jumping exercises that add nothing. In short, I don't think the way Lionbridge "does it" is the right way to "do it".

Pros

Flexible, decent pay for work from home, bonuses sometimes

Cons

Monthly quality grades that are nonsensical. Been doing this for 8 years and lately they tell me my work is below standard and cut off my access. A few days later they tell me to work more hours. It is demoralizing. If you can keep their grading system from destroying your self esteem you'll do fine.

Pros

Ability to take on multiple tasks many that are unique each day making the work interesting. The training and guides provided allow for self-study perfect for independent workers. Also, quick support response and feedback from the team.

Cons

Some weeks can have less work volume but for the most part task have been steady.
