Pros

The work is easy once you get the hang of it

Cons

I never write reviews for anything, but I feel compelled to warn people who are looking at this company as an option. KEEP LOOKING. Only accept a job here if you’d like to be overworked and underpaid. You’ll be expected to work 50-60 hours a week with no chance of overtime. There’s very little time off and your weekends are also encroached upon. This place has TERRIBLE work/life balance. Another review about this company correctly identified it as a sweatshop. I almost NEVER leave when I’m supposed to and I barely make enough to live modestly. The “bonuses” that you’ll hear about won’t ever actually make it to your bank account, so don’t count on those to make up for anything. Take my advice and take your talents somewhere where you will be appreciated, developed and compensated fairly.

Thank you, we do value employee feedback. While we recognize workloads at times may be higher than expected, we do take work balance very seriously. Welocalize will continue to work closely with teams to identify ways to promote this balance.

Pros

Plenty of opportunities for growth at the company while we expand our client base. Working with some of the largest brands in most verticals worldwide. Great strides towards introducing new technology over the last two years. Working with global teams is a reality. Smith is a charismatic and inspirational leader who is very involved and cares every minute of every day in the success of Welocalize. Very approachable CEO.

Cons

Due to growth, senior management doesn't always catch on in time that more resources are needed to support. They then expect to deliver to the client with existing employee base=potential employee burnout.
