Always great on paper, often ridiculous in reality - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Unbabel

- Huge differences in salaries between teams and between Lisbon and SF. Most salaries seem too low. - In Lisbon the teams are divided between 4-5 different office spaces. Although they're all pretty much in the same neighborhood, that makes internal communications a nightmare. It often seems easier to communicate with the SF office than with teams in other office spaces in the same neighborhood. - The management aren't adapting well to how fast the company's growing. They're still adamant to stick to models that worked when there were a lot less people around, but that don't work anymore. It's ridiculous! - Formal qualifications are still rated much higher than actual practical competence. This means there's too many big egos to deal with. - No functioning training for new joiners - No customer first mentality. Instead of operating on a customer>team>individual basis, things work on an team/individual>customer basis. It gets very frustrating very fast, especially when the arguments used for it are always about the next round of funding
