Young company but underpaid & overworked

Account manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Young company, very social, good benefits

Cons

Really difficult to start out there and build your business. Entry level employees don't make commission and severely underpaid -- work longer hours and the financial benefits from their sales go to their bosses, not to them. Toxic work environment at times, very gossipy and overworked employees who are typically not happy and leave after 12-18 months.

Business Outlook

Pros

Possibility to learn a lot about this area. If you like the translation/localization sector and want to know more, this is a good place for it. Nice colleagues.

Cons

Old-fashioned big corporation with vertical hierarchy. No laptops to work from home. You have to use your own equipment. New office is good, but not in a central area. No flexibility for working hours. Work on public holidays sometimes. Minimum benefits - 20 days vacation per year. No remote work after the pandemic. Overall you can see most people are stressed and not happy there.
