LanguageLine Solutions reviews about "pay raise"

Hour rate is way too low for such high intensity and high skill work. No pay raise even after 5 years. It has never raised a cent since the first day being there. No sick pay. No pension contributions. They pay almost the same whether you have decades of interpretation and translation experience with many professional certificates as those who just enter into the market. Not fair for interpretation professionals with certificates.

VERY low pay, NO raises ever, Quality Evaluations that almost always say "Meets Expectations" for everyone, no matter how good and skilled you are. They also send you Court Calls without any Training - considering how high-stakes these hearings are, this is highly irresponsible and unethical! If you request court training, they will turn you down. Yet they will provide the training to new interpreters. After approving your paid time off, they will reverse it without any notice. They pay you less than what companies pay bilingual Customer Service Agents. Benefits: Health insurance is a joke. After working for them for years, they will NEVER give you a raise, even if you request it. In fact, if you ask for anything, the answer is ALWAYS NO. They retaliate against employees who are trying to form a union. If you interpret verbatim, they will write you up for interpreting profanities (which should be interpreted). They value customer service more than accurate interpretation.

No pay raises or room for advancement and too many calls

Uncompetitive pay, no ability to gain merit based raises

No team-like environment. Can be lonely - not many people to talk to throughout the day.

No pay raises, very few position openings

The pay is terrible, and they haven't given any raises in over 2 years. The last raise that they did give was only a couple cents an hour. The benefits are also terrible, you don't accrue a full day of PTO in an entire month of work. Upper management views employees as replaceable and feedback is not welcome. You could risk retaliation if you disagree with management. When someone quits, they just expect everyone to take on more work, or they find off-shore talent that ends up being difficult for employees to train due to language/cultural barriers on top of normal competency/attitude barriers.

Some managers are very abrasive and hard to deal with. Pay is dismal (better negotiate a good salary up front) and we haven't had raises in a long time. They don't even keep up with inflation, yet health insurance prices go up yearly. Bonus has no logic to it. It's decided by made up projected numbers that are completely unrealistic some years. There is very little guidance on where we are going except for one meeting a year.

Low pay, no advancement, sometimes heavy calls, and no pay raise.
