Pros

Flexible hours. Highly technical. Supportive colleagues. Diversity of projects and content type. Great social committee.

Cons

Long hours. If you work your contracted 37.5 hours, this means you "do not have enough work to do". Expect to do 50-60 hours per week just to keep afloat; overtime is UNPAID. No acknowledgement from management when staff work excessive hours in order to maintain service levels to clients. Very poor work:life balance. If you are a workaholic, this will be the place for you. Management undermine staff in front of employees - this is very very bad management and unacceptable behaviour.

Doesn't live up to its own hype

Pros

Looks good on your CV being one of the largest translation industries in the industry

Cons

So focused on profits and growth they've lost the human touch They talk a good talk, but really they are too focused on trying to be a 'cool' company, but really a lot of it is just hype... behind closed doors it is another matter. People are overworked and not really appreciated. It is a great shame.

The hourly rate is good

Cons

Contracting positions are temporary, you just get paid for what you work, no vacation days, just 3 sick days for a year...
