Great Job - Interpreter/Translator LAMP Employee Review

LAMP was very enjoyable. The people working there are very nice. It’s a good place to gain professional experience.

Not too many opportunities to network since the office is small in numbers

-They seem to hire almost anyone willing to work. -Many of the interpreters are kind. -It's a pleasure meeting people from similar backgrounds daily. -We get paid for mileage, but this comes out to significantly less pay than our hourly wage.

-Every interpreter has a second or third job. -The hours are "flexible" but sometimes you have gaps in between appointments. So you might get paid 4 hours to work one day, but with the gaps in between appointments, you will be out of your home for 6 or 7 hours. -You find out what hours you work a day or two before the day you have to work. -Some days you work one hour, some days you work more. Not consistent. -You get no health benefits. You get NO PTO. -You may work very intense cases, and minimal mental health support is offered. -They do pay mileage, but you will waste many more hours driving around when you have large gaps between appointments. -They have unpaid opportunities for training, but in this economy, that's very difficult to do. So it is very hard to grow within the company.
