Pros

Diversity working environment. People are nice and atmosphere is casual.

Cons

You cannot expect great teamwork. If something goes wrong, everyone will try to find someone to blame and be responsible. Salary is not great either.

Pros

The people. TransPerfect has great people to work with. Easy to get along with and very collaborative.

Cons

They severely underpay their employees. While management makes the most money, every other employee gets underpaid. They also have a high turnover rate, mainly because of pay and growth opportunity. Management refuses to spend money on necessary tools and always looks to save a buck. There's also a lot of politics in the office. The issues between the CEO's have driven many people out of the company. Although it doesn't effect regular employees, it does when their managers keep leaving. Remote work is nearly impossible. They don't trust their employees to work from home. Their technology is outdated. People complain about these things and they don't get fixed.

Pros

1. Great people all over the world 2. Some opportunities to travel 3. Nice parties

Cons

1. Lots of overtime with absolutely zero compensation 2. Zero trust in employees, lots of micromanagement 3. Some of the management practices promote competition instead of cooperation, even between the members of the same team 4. Similarly certain practices promote competition between offices instead of cooperation - it demotes knowledge sharing and sometimes leaves unused resources that could otherwise be engaged by others. Increasing (real) cooperation between offices could add a lot of value 5. Extremely reluctant to any change 6. Some internal communication and trainings seemed to be focused solely on how great the company and the founders are, it was borderline weird. We get it, you started this business out of a dorm room.
