Pros

This is a difficult review to write, but it's something that needs to be mentioned to Transperfect… I was hired during my first interview by the Division President after the R&D Manager didn’t show. Asked to start the next day, I was parked in the cubical right outside his office. Let’s just say you learn a lot by spending 8 hours a day, 10 feet apart from someone. In the 7 quick months I worked at Transperfect I was promoted (without a review) and made significant changes to their current, back-end, and new products. To say the least, it was unfortunate, but I felt I had to leave because of the implementation of micromanagement and unrealistic expectations. -The Maynard office is a beautiful mill-style location overlooking the Assabet river. -They have some awesome and talented people who work in the Maynard office. -I was paid fair for being outside Boston.

Cons

- Couldn’t get basic project questions answered by top management - Feels like a ghost office with literally half the office out on permanent WFH - You don’t get to collaborate with the thousands of other Transperfect employee’s, just your team - You’re not truly part of the ‘family’ unless you're in the right religious circle

Pros

Flexible with remote work, decent pay, friendly coworkers

Cons

Management will repay your hard work with even more work. You will work at least 10hrs every day. You will have to sort out your parking situation (building charges 100 USD plus tax for parking).
