      A disappointment

      Project manager

      Pros

      Quick-paced, a good amount of responsibility.

      Cons

      TransPerfect fosters a high-stress, blame-centric environment. It's difficult to feel accomplished or proud of one's work with employees being so pressured to produce that the quality of the work slips. Processes are developed but nearly impossible to adjust to unique cases, which leads to mistakes being forgotten and little development. Little work-life balance and diminishing opportunities for advancement. Salary and benefits are below average. The young atmosphere tends to be muddled by everyone's stress and company drama is well-known by anyone with internet access. The romance associated with working for a global company has vanished.

      Linguistic QA

      Linguist

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Decent level of autonomy with projects Working with translators! Generally they're smart and kind, helpful and generally amazing at what they do. Great for working in linguistics and being part of an international team

      Cons

      No loyalty to workers, it's the kind of place where an employee will "win" quarterly awards and then as they're quitting you suddenly get an email blast announcement, "Effective immediately, so-and-so is no longer at TransPerfect". Management plays favorites and promotes the wrong people, bullying happens often and seems to be encouraged, lack of recognition, no work-life balance, you put in hours for little respect, you have to ask for raises. When I was there it slowly devolved into a place where they paid very little and expected the best (for offsite translators as well as staffed employees) No free meals or free delivery to recognize long hours, a huge "entertainment" fund for "happy hours" but they aren't fun when you feel uncomfortable around the people Not a great environment for your mental health It was a blessing to move on :=)

      Worst Place ever don't waist your time.

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      There are no pros. The worst company ever.

      Cons

      The worst very bias company. Toxic workplace. Low pay, horrible business, office politics, not supportive of their employees. Management is the worst.
