Pros

A paycheck. You may luck out and have some normal colleagues who make the experience of this place a bit more tolerable.

Cons

Not sure what the deal is with Lionbridge management.. Are they miserable and bitter before working here or does this place make them that way? The Management style.. make their employees feel stupid whether berating them in group emails or meetings. Innovation from employees..hah, you will keep your mouth shut if you have any ideas and sit around rotting waiting for your task; basically assuming the role of a button-pushing monkey. The only way to succeed here is to be an incredible bumkisser. You make one mistake or come up with a better idea than your manager and you're ripped to shreds. This place is good at one thing, making a mess out of honest, hard working, intelligent decent peoples professional and personal lives. A pay raise...HAH! Not one for years for the worker bees but it's fine for senior\middle management to reward themselves with fat raises\bonus\stock options while CEO sends out company-wide emails crying about 'belt tightening, 'trying times' This is a facade of a company which live day by day praying the next product will be the 'great one'. Prospective employees, read the other reviews and decide whether you want to subject yourself to this - trust me, you deserve better. I may sound bitter because I AM, It will take a long time to erase this place from my memories.
