Pros

I can't think of any. On the other hand, I guess I shouldn't complain, as least I have a job.

Cons

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.

Pros

The people that work at Lionbridge are professional and hardworking. They are willing to answer questions, assist others, and care about the job that they do.

Cons

The lack of interest from senior management. People are not treated like individuals but almost as if they were disposable. The emphasis is on the money and constant numbers crunching. It makes it difficult to put forth 100% on the job when you feel as if it isn't recognised or appreciated. It's also difficult when all that matters is not the quality of work (or how well the job is performed) but what percentage of profit is going to be made.
