Pros

- Due to extreme volume of work you will learn a lot very fast and will have to learn to handle certain responsibility and you will master your multitasking skills - Fairly easy to get a job right out of uni - Amazing colleagues from many different backgrounds - Nice office in a good location - After this job, every other job you will ever do will be easy, it really can not get much worse that this

Cons

This company will try to squeeze the most they can out of you. Salaries are incredibly low, promised bonuses are a joke (that will make you cry) and there are literally no benefits whatsoever. - Ridiculous amount of unpaid overtime (people often staying in office until 11pm and coming before 8am in order to be able to manage the workload). Over time is required and unappreciated. No respect for personal time. - Lots of stress and constant pressure from Sales, they treat you like you are trash and once you make a slightest mistake they will make sure to make you feel terrible and escalate you - You are required to negotiate the prices that company agreed with linguists to be fixed due to limited budgets - quantity over quality in everything - The was company treats its employees- you are just an asset and do not matter at all - extremely high employee turn over

Pros

The job was remote and very flexible.

Cons

The manager at times, could be unprofessional. She was a little passive aggressive and often no-showed or was late to meetings. She would make false promises and could be a bit condescending. The pay is also not great and despite recruiting hundreds of contractors, my requests for a raise was denied. The rate for contractors was also very cheap.
