TransPerfect reviews

Extremely high turnover; Excessive workload; Long hours, no compensation for overtime; Culture of intimidation and fear; Project management requires no language skills- this is task management at best; Bare minimum of holidays given; Archaic system from Microsoft Outlook to Excel sheets; Niche industry, skill set is extremely specific to the company, does not translate (pun intended) to marketable skills in other industries; Poor infrastructure: they promote from within, which means middle and upper management have no formal training in management and do not have the soft skills required to successfully manage teams of people.

-Everyone but Sales is treated like garbage. -CS doesn't get any commission overrides although it's the division that grows and retains all accounts. -Salary and benefits are laughable. -Bonuses are generally paid 4 to 6 months late. I'm thinking this is a way of keeping people around longer and/or prolonging resignations. -No career advancement if you're (a) not kissing up to upper management and (b) not an old friend of the "higher ups". -"Frat" mentality in almost every aspect of the business. Ask someone with tenure in Sales about "pushups". It's disgraceful and probably illegal. If that's not enough, ask about the "Hall of Shame." -Lying to clients is the norm just so deals are won (e.g. hard to feel good about what you do when you know you're not providing what the client asked for). -Everyone is overworked which leads to low morale, low quality deliverables, and a perception of a "cheap" company. -Processes/QA are generally broken since the company relies on outsourcing most linguistic duties.
