TransPerfect reviews

You do not get the financial compensation you deserve

* The pay is atrocious. They will pull you in with promises of raises that you will never get. We continued to get emails from the CEO and other executives bragging about how much money we made over COVID, meanwhile all raises were cancelled or delayed (for well over a year). * They restructured the entire production department in a way that essentially demoted people and decreased their pay, then couldn't understand why people were upset and quitting. * The work is repetitive and easy but entirely too much for any one person to complete in a normal work day. You'll always be working overtime, and you likely wont be paid for it. In NY they use the predatory pay scheme called "flexible work week" where you are always paid your "salary" but your overtime is paid at 50% or less. You'll never work less than 40 hours a week so it's useless. They just do it as a loop hole to avoid NYC's salary minimum wage. * Throughout all of COVID they did not provide us with laptops, a stipend, anything. We all worked on our own personal computers. * They expect PMs to reason with translators to get them to do GREAT work for PENNIES. Most PMs do not speak another language. For those of us that do, we see just how bad the content is. Which really is to be expected when they want you to completely rob translators for the work they are doing. I could go on, but I've left the company and am so much happier. I wish I had known how bad it was or taken these reviews to heart. If you have a great manager and team, you could really enjoy a few years growing here, but you wont move up unless you drink the koolaid. It's a decent place for recent grads looking to gain some experience and a small paycheck, but get out as soon as you can. You will learn more and make more elsewhere.
