Pros

-They hire go getters that work well on a team. I made some amazing friends in the office and overseas that will last for years. -Satisfying and relevant work that keeps you interested -Training is a mixed bag depending on your team lead, but most people throughout the company understand where new people are coming from and keep things low stakes initially to warm you up. -Very independent work if that’s your style -Goals are clear -My manager was very kind, intelligent, and supportive. There are great people like them throughout the company. -Quarterly bonuses based on team impact (at managers’ discretion)

Cons

-Financial accountability/transparency is concerning. Partially due to COVID, pay structure was changed after promotions were given and a quarterly back payment program was implemented to supplement the difference between what was initially promised to promoted employees and the new structure. This was not recognized by HR as a salary increase (although it was implemented to directly supplement salary), getting any amounts in writing was nearly impossible (only verbal or video call confirmation), and your manager is responsible for remembering to get it to you on time. -Adding to the above, it feels like the same tactics we are taught to use to underpay linguists are used for employees. -I’ve learned about changes in overtime pay through Glassdoor rather than the company. -No/low quality company issued technology -Workload can be very high for months on end with no relief or plan for relief in place -Burnout is frequent -Not much room or time for growth outside of management or PMing -Turnover is high so it can be difficult to stabilize workload when a team is mostly new hires in training

Pros

The training is intense, almost too long.

Cons

I didn’t stay there because I realized the amount of different client I would be providing service for and the pay rate is not worth it.
