Pros

- There are some great people in middle management who will try to make your day to day work a little more bearable, but ultimately they don't have the power to change the terrible working conditions

Cons

- Miserable pay, you will be promised raises and bonuses which you'll never get - You will be expected to work overtime on a regular basis - You will constantly have a ridiculous workload because the company takes on all the work they can get regardless of capacity - You will have many responsibilities outside of your job description which you will never get paid or recognized for - The company's only goal is to make money and save money, so they will take every opportunity they get to pay you even less or cut costs, no matter what has to be sacrificed in the process - The company prefers to hire young college graduates without experience as they will complain less about the inhumane working conditions - High turnover - Slow and outdated IT systems

Pros

walking distance to Penn Station

Cons

Profit above people. Laying off and furloughing people during COVID without paying out unused PTO, health insurance or severance. You are just a commodity to them. No career advancement unless you are someone’s favorite or throw out the CEO cellphone during lawsuit. Toxic company culture at best. Richest translation company in the world but can not afford to take care of employees who worked tirelessly for them before letting them go into a recession. CEO is a corrupt greedy cheapskate. Just google him look at the lawsuit between founders.

Bad Management, fired me during COVID-19 for "lack of pipeline". Completely tone deaf to what their employees want.
