A good company to work in. Decent salary and benefits. No innovation, rigid, old technology stack.

Translator

Business Outlook

Pros

Professional atmosphere, serious products. Excellent infrastructure. Benefits go beyond what is minimally required by the law. Savings plan, grocery card, if you wish you can find stability here. Work/Life balance is pretty decent. Talented and highly educated IT and sales personnel.

Cons

Old technology stack. Nepotism: a relative of a manager was hired for the translation department, despite the fact that the relative didn't even know basic English or basic computer skills. Disregard for innovation and latest trends. The translation/localization department in Puebla lacks leadership, which reflects in the questionable quality of the translated/localized products. When I was hired, I was "conditioned" to receive a lower salary because I didn't have college education. Limited growth opportunities. You can just be "translator junior" or "translator senior", which is the same really.

Pros

Work at home position. It was great before the merger now it going downhill slowly everyday.

Cons

Work /Life Balance decline. The constant reorgs with the company ( They have had 3-4 over the last 2 years, so many I am lost count) Movement of incompetent people into management roles. Management assigning last minute projects that they want done with 24 hour notice or a short-time frame constantly. Employee Morale is declining due to layoffs which are forcing current staff to be overworked with limited resources. Alot of good skilled employees have left the company. Employee Benefits are not to good since the merger.
