Lionbridge reviews

Below market salaries and no bonus/reward system. Only executives get stock options/bonus. It's not like they're the only one doing the work! Too much politics between departments. Lack of communications. Those IT guys think they own the company and run over everyone's life. But actually they'are the one who screws everyone up, especially the remote offices, they don't get any decent support.

Finance procedures (budgeting, invoicing, projecting) can take up to 50% percent of your work time. Most of the reasons for this fact are internal: Instable and cumbersome finance applications, bad finance workflow across departments. This has been going on for years; it is not likely to change anytime soon. Senior management announcements often appear to come from another planet and while that's not unusual in general it is extreme at LB: CEO--energetic, data-driven, oriented towards creating a group-feeling momentum. CTO--awkward and aggressive in pushing shoestring-budget tech solutions/workflows on employees (poor follow-up when things go wrong or don't work). Tinkering with your own PC will take a lot of your time, especially during times when company-wide procedures will require all to participate on deadline (month's end, quarter's end).
