TransPerfect reviews

they work you to the bone and for a joke of a pay. i got this job right out of college and know that my peers, also right out of college, landed jobs where they earned at least $10K more a year than i got offered at TPT. i had little to no time for the actual "sales" part of the sales job. my office environment was a joke. needed cubicles to be able to concentrate because honestly, to the person on the other end of the phone, it must have seemed like i was working at a telemarketer's office, having to compete with shouting coworkers and managers. you don't get the tools you need to do the job right. everyone's unhappy and you never escape the job or talking about it. coworkers will text, call, email you to tell you how unhappy they are which just feeds your own unhappiness. management is a complete joke. people moved into management roles simply for sticking around when most people are smart enough to leave after putting in their time. tenure does not a manager make. i got little to no direction from my manager and others who were hired 6 months after me were promoted shockingly and suspiciously quickly. i put in my time, begrudgingly, met every goal expected of me, but yet, there was always just one more thing to hit in order to MAYBE get a promotion. promotion: 10% pay increase and start to get commission. i took a job that actually on paper is $2K less a year. i didn't factor in commissions when making my decision because my 0.01% or whatever it was barely even added a cent to my bank account. It was at most $200. others working in larger industries got $1K+. There's absolutely nothing motivating sales employees here at ALL. Management is disrespectful. the "culture" here is one of work hard, be stressed out, and whoever sucks up most and parties with their boss the most will get the most rewards. not the people actually doing their part to ensure good results for their clients. nope. for offices that only have 3 people, there are still closed-door conversations and it's very clear where your place in the totem pole is. you're not important. the cult of managers are the only ones who actually matter here and they honestly do not deserve the pay/rewards they get. i never saw any work done by my manager but she was able to jump in when needed when there was an upset client.

Most of the same of what other posts indicated. Senior management is immature and it can be a very high school-esque environment sometimes. It's frustrating to work endlessly and see no potential for reward. People sell their souls to this company until they realize they don't have to and move on. Incredibly high turnover is a telling indicator. I believe the only thing that keeps people there is the fact that it's a young environment and people like the other co-workers (even if they're miserable) and since it monopolizes your life you get sucked in and it becomes hard to leave.
