Rumors are not always true! - werkgeversreview Translator bij TransPerfect

I started at TPT 4 years ago, as a newbie Project Coordinator. Applied on Friday, got a call the same day, online test on Monday. interview on Tuesday and was told I got the job on Wednesday! At that time, I came to read some reviews on Glassdoor which scared me quite a bit - the environment was said to be miserable, with long hours, no recognition and "slave life", basically. I almost refused the job and went for something "easier", but that would have been the worst mistake for my career. It was hard work, yes. I was pushed to my limits, and the hours were quite long. But I arrived the year everything changed - management took matters into their own hands and changed the company's policy. I started as a Project Coordinator, was promoted to Project Manager after a year and then asked to do some training, which is something I liked doing. I had a hybrid role PM/trainer, until I asked to do some translation, which is what I studied and wanted to do. Again, my managers listened to me and I was given the chance to do Project Management, training AND translation. My role became what I wanted... Until I had a baby. 10 months of maternity leave, and I was back. I requested flexible hours and to work only 4 days a week, at different times and from different locations. Both management and HR listened to me and gave me what I wanted, without flinching. I have now moved department, and I am a full-time in-house translator, what I wanted to do all my life. I have given everything to TPT, but they have given me back an amazing career, where I was listened and I could achieve my dream job. I have always been listened to, and valued as an employee. And this is without mentioning the yearly promotions, the high salary compared to any other translation company I know of, the pension scheme, the maternity policy, the amazing team spirit, the numerous activities and drinks we do, etc. Do not listen to rumors. Come and see for yourself.
