Pros

As flexpool you get time as much time off as needed and the work hours are from 8am to 4:30pm which is nice. Also the people you work with directly are pleasant and I have met many friends working here which is really the only solid reason I've stayed at this job for the time that I have.

Cons

Low pay, this is to be expected of a contracting company who bids out work, but not to the extent that it is. You do not get benefits unless you are full time, and the middle management is pretty horrendous.

Pros

There are none at all. Lionbridge is a place to work if you can't get a job anywhere else due to poor economy, lack of formal education, or if Adecco is the only other place hiring.

Cons

The pay is nowhere near market value (salary.com: Test Engineer/Test Technician). At $11 /hr, the kind of people they can get are either incredibly stupid (which decreases the morale and optimistic attitudes of other employees), or they are unable to find any other job, so they feel trapped in the first place. The entire company is very immature, and very political. Management is extremely involved in everything, but there is no consistency to the management, so often, people will feel that they can't take time off or work on something special because the form to use is not clear. One person i wrote up for sleeping on the job was allowed to continue working simply because the form i used for the formal write-up was lost, and no one allowed me to keep a copy of it. One employee was unable to attend his father's funeral because HR lost his employee paperwork and his time off request was denied. One employee did not receive a final paycheck because HR removed him from payroll before the payroll was processed, and then demanded that he reapply for the job he left so he could get his final check.

Pros

As a flex pool employee, you can request almost anytime off. Almost no questions asked.

Cons

If you’re not a Full time employee, you don’t have benefits, Flex pool aren’t sure how long any of the projects will last because the Senior Management doesn’t even know or even bother to tell you. I totally agree with the other blogs that has been posted for this company.
