Pros

Opportunity to work with great, hardworking, knowledgeable colleagues.

Cons

Frequent layoffs, lack of transparency, replacing knowledgeable hardworking employees with inexperience cheap labor from developing countries. CEO posts videos, managers sends emails complaining about company’s finances which their excuses for no salary increase and bonuses, etc., while market analysis shows otherwise. Managers hires their friends who has no prior experiences in the field. HR department is hard to reach. IT department is extremely slow. Other than working with great employees until one of us gets layoff, nothing exciting to work in language department in this company.

Pros

Great benefits including PTO, health care and other benefits.

Cons

Very much a brother-in-law feel when it comes to promotions and praise. If you aren't in the cool club, you will be shunned and left out. Management also makes business decisions without understanding the niche part of the various industries.
