Pros

Semi-decent salary for recent college grads Work can be done remotely Many offices around the world Young, fun staff Relaxed dress code

Cons

After the first week you will never work an 8-9 hour day again. Most weeks average 50-60 hours, but salary doe not reflect this. Work/Life balance is a myth and those that pursue it are seen as slackers You will spend a large chunk of your day playing the blame game, both offense and defense. You do not have sufficient funds to provide a quality product To the company all employees are merely cogs in a machine, most employees do not matter to management

Absurd turnover rate.

Pros

Centrally located office in mid-town Manhattan. No other pros, really. This is not a good company to work for.

Cons

No long-term thinking whatsoever, there's no future at TransPerfect. This company does not value their employees. The staff is not a valued resource at TransPerfect. If you're not happy it's not their problem. Anyone can fill your seat, at any time. 60-70 h work weeks are considered "light" and 80-90 is more like "normal". But don't think you'll get paid a big, fat salary for this work. The starting salary is at the looower end of entry-level and for the hours you are expected/forced to put in, the compensation is ridiculous. Salary increases are low/non-existent and completely at the whim of the owners.

Pros

If you like freedom, accountability and getting better, there is not a better place to work. From the top down, everyone is challenged to be best they can be and better than that tomorrow. It is that focus that allows even the entry level people to see ideas, make improvements and better service the client and the company.

Cons

Being told there are areas anyone can improve on is tough.
