Pros

Possibly a good starter agency for a new translator, because they have lots of work.

Cons

Things went well to begin with, but starting in 2008 went downhill rapidly. Always lower and lower rates, and tighter and tighter deadlines. Each job has to be negotiated individually. At present, the two founders are fighting in court. I will certainly not accept work from them as long as this is going on.

Pros

-The workforce is young and open-minded. -Localization is good exposure into world of technology -Great technology, market leader

Cons

-Toxic management -Criminal comp plan -Take PTO and never hear then end of it -No sales process -Zero resources provided to sales team (no contact database licenses, Sugar CRM, no cohesion between product marketing and sales, etc) -HIGH employee/management turnover -Nothing matters more than generating QoQ growth. NOTHING. -If you are not in NY, you are not worth the company's time nor money. -The company literally had a Sales Kick off topic that covered the reason why not having a work life balance was a good thing.

Pros

None. A bunch of semi-illiterate kids playing at being grown ups, petty stupidity, endless garbage, toxic people, stupid emails, no accountability, can barely speak any foreign language properly...dumb idiots and painfully aware of it. Don't like competent people. Just lower your standards to floor level and you'll fit right in. Lazy imbeciles, frustrated, with an inferiority complex that doesn't help work dynamics at all. :)

Cons

Please read above. Too many stupidities to list.
