Pros

Remote freelancing makes the job flexible; the projects have a very fast turnaround. Payment goes out per project, not monthly, so you get paid relatively often. The invoice system is pretty simple. The translation projects themselves are exciting, often for marketing campaigns of major consumer brands. The project managers are very friendly.

Cons

The projects are not consistent. Sometimes the payment for the same word count can vary by hundreds of dollars. They often require same-day turnaround which can be difficult considering translators are on different time zones.

Pros

You can get this job without experience. Good training. Recruiters will love you because of how easy it is to poach from TP. 17 vacation days a year.

Cons

Low starting salary. If you don't have Relativity or ESI Processing experience, 40k or less. You get one raise a year, and it is in MARCH. NO transparency- at all. They block Glassdoor. The idiots are paid too much, and the smart people are paid too little. The benefits and 401k is an absolute joke. Maximum of 1.5% match of your salary, and you only vest 20% after two years. Many holidays not observed No structure / clear expectations
