- Zero communication. Other than the initial interview, during which the recruiters are very approachable, there is no live communication that would take place during the course of your employment, i.e. other than the feedback after routine monitoring by QA or in other instances when the MANAGEMENT needs to get a hold of you. It's virtually impossible to speak with anyone at any department and on any level.
- Inadequate reimbursement. The reimbursement level is as grossly disproportionate with the degree of responsibility you will take with various assignments during the course of your employment, as it is disproportionate with the skill set and time and effort it takes to acquire it that are required to be a qualified professional. You may also notice that with the ever increasing level of responsibility, the reimbursement level will stay miserably the same (non-negotiable).
It is a shame that a professional in an occupation of unqualified labor, e.g. hospitality or restaurant industries could easily make substantially more money than working as an interpreter with this employer. It is large companies like this, who are largely responsible for setting a poor standard for reimbursement level in the interpreting profession as a whole.
- Zero training. The training that this employer provides is inadequate for anyone to successfully be able to perform the tasks of your assigned area of responsibility, as an interpreter, You will be expected to perform on a particular level without any significant resources. With regards to continued training for your interpretation skills, you are on your own.
- There is no paid vacation for staff interpreters, and the benefits offered are of a highly questionable usefulness
