- Management is not approachable and doesn't know how to communicate with employees
- Lack of progression (this is huge in the checking department and usually the company loses good employees because of that)
- Always the same people getting promoted (and generally they are friends with their managers)
- Bad/lack of communication (some managers just don’t talk to their team and, as a result, often people feel discouraged, lost, like no one even cares about them… is that how you want to nurture relationships and keep employees for a long time?)
- Low salary and, if that wasn't enough, there is also a low salary increase annually, which means the people that have been working there for a longer period of time get paid almost the same as the people just starting in the company
- It's almost impossible to get a translator position (the company is looking for specialists in some areas and funds courses to some in-house people, you just have to be English or German as the rest of the languages don't seem to exist and, believe me, they need more in-house translators in some languages as the freelancers they work with are usually unreliable)
- Lack of organisation that leads to client complaints and promotes a “blaming culture”
- No positive feedback, priority given to negative feedback instead. There is a general lack of appreciation for employees.
