TransPerfect reviews

awful work environment in smaller office, Patronizing Management, demotivating and pathetic commission scheme

Transperfect's strategy is to recruit newly young grads who work hard for little money. The retention rate is super low and turnover rate is high with people working at the company for less than 1-2 years. The company is filled with young 25 year old "managers" who get their senior titles if they manage to stick around because there is no one else to manage junior PMs, so most managers lack competency as a manager. The work that you do as a project manager is not technical at all, so you won't get any technical skills out of this job. On a day to day basis, PMs are going through 200 plus emails a day explaining instructions to translators and how to “clear your cache” on Chrome. Your work is based off of how much revenue you make for the company on a monthly basis. When it comes down to it, Transperfect looks to see how much money you can make for the company and is not a company that will value you as an employee. This is why their meek strategy of targeting recent grads work because they would rather keep hiring cheaper labor than to invest and retain its existing workforce.
