Pros

If you want to fine-tune your resume and become "manager" rather quick, this is the place. You'll be give a documentation and guidelines for everything so don't worry. No need to make decisions nor come up with own ideas, there's a process for everything.

Cons

Abuse of titles at its best. There are so many so called managers and directors but only a few can really manage or achieve something. There's lots of talking, planning and very little knowledge about the subject matter.

Pros

Simply put..NONE. TOXIC...Amateur run division of TransPerfect. I can't say there are any "Pros" even from the first day of employment. I immediately saw a highly disorganized division run by ego-minded managers and sales team. Should have walked out on the first day. Will NOT recommend to anyone.

Cons

The environment is TOXIC. Management is thee worst I have ever come across. Absolutely no organization, thoughtfulness, and the inability to produce a healthy working environment. They do not value people but only see $$$. I am one of many that feel this way in this division of TransPerfect. Its time that 360 peer reviews are done on Management and Sales running this group. It is absolutely inexcusable how they treat people on the team. I would NEVER recommend any client jump on a ship with such incompetent, ego-minded leadership team. The ship will sink...

Pros

the people are AMAZING, young fun people! you meet people from all around the world and different culture, every 3rd Thursday you go out for drinks with clients. global footprint and can travel to each office.

Cons

LONG hours you will NOT be only working 42 hours which is LONG already up to 52-60 hours a week. very very demanding! you would have to give up your work life balance to met deadlines and targets. very very target base! it all about how much money you can make for the company, the more money you make the higher you get! if you dont make targets managers will be ON your case like crazy everyone eats at there desk! if you take a full 1hr lunch without checking emails you would get a warning from manages. Maro managed: you have to tell managed what you done every day via email: it called End of Days and it can not be missed and every Friday to show you are meeting target and deadline High turnover: over 49% employee turnover they have a week called do your job week where you have to COLD CALL for 5-8 hours a day! nothing but cold call, so you have to make over 59 calls a day Minimum. 20 days holiday a year aggressive based sales anyone within the teams ends up to together because they spend so much time together, which is very unprofessional
