Welocalize reviews

Absolutely no benefits, two sick days a year. Health insurance is garbage. Get treated like contractors on a W2 position. Without all of the benefits of being a contractor. ZERO job security. Houston location just laid off 120+ people, half of their work force. Previous year they laid off about the same amount. If you take a job here you should still be interviewing around. Would blame the pandemic but they did the same thing last year before the pandemic. Just see this as a temporary job, get the experience and move on asap. Rules are ridiculously strict and up to the whims of the client. Guidelines are often not updated and you can get three different answers from three different managers. Which would be fine if everything was up to opinion but there are strict standards in place from your first day that can get you fired during training just because a client didn't like your answer on something. Outside of these projects- recent layoffs were based on managerial favorites under the guise of statistics. People hitting their appropriate numbers every day, were laid off.

Not much room for growth at the company itself. Room for growth would depend on whether or not the client may want to fill a new/higher position.
