AA Global Language Services Limited Employee Reviews

It was an interesting experience, but the fact that they do not guarantee the job hours and you do not know weather you will have an income every week, it is unsettling. Also, the pay in a funny pattern, once every 2 month or so? The overall team is very nice, but there is a lack of communication. It is nice to start with.

Pros

paid time travel and millage

Cons

no guaranteed hours

I don't recommend

Coordinator (Former Employee) - City Centre - 31 May 2023

I don't recommend, stressful environment and bad culture. Job description wasn't accurate. No bonus scheme and people there are rude, unfriendly and stressful.

fake company

interpreter (Former Employee) - Remote - 28 November 2022

Fake company, they scheduled the time and said will call me, but they didn't. I called them, they said I may give them wrong number, I gave them again, and they reschedule the time. However, again, they didn't call me and waste my whole day. Don't use them, they are joke.

Bad pay, overall nasty management

Didn't even pay me my wages and fired me for stupid small thing. Really expect of you to service 100% of your time pay you small when themselves take profit even more.

Sorry to see your bad feedback, please note:1. You should learn the difference between a Translator and an Interpreter2. You were paid everything that was due to you3. What you consider to be “stupid small thing” is very important for us to deliver a professional service to our clients4. Everyone reading the bad grammar in the two sentences you wrote in your feedback will see you are not qualified to work as a linguist5. We wish you all the success in the future, in a different line of business.

Totally nice

Multilingual Interpreter (Current Employee) - Scotland - 15 May 2021

Great team

Interpreting coordinator (Former Employee) - Hull City Centre, East Riding of Yorkshire - 11 March 2021

Gets quite busy at times but everyone works together quite well, very friendly and never hesitate to lend a helping hand when needed. Same goes for management, you won’t see them locked away in a room which is nice, feels like they are part of the team. Parking is a problem though and could do with a microwave in the break room!

Pros

Amazing staff, central location

Cons

No free parking

Flexibility

Cons

Unpredictability especialy with monthly income

Awful company, zero culture! Avoid!

Administrator (Former Employee) - Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire - 20 September 2020

Total waste of time, avoid applying for a job here. The worst company in the market, managed by the owner and two guys who don’t even know what they doing - especially the so called project manager. This guy acts like a spy - a good little sidekick to the owner who sits in front of his television all day watching his staff. Poor pay, zero furthering of your career and led by rude and incompetent management. The £10 Christmas bonus was the highlight of my time there.

Great place to work at

Freelance Interpreter (Current Employee) - Cheltenham, Gloucestershire - 8 January 2020

I work as a freelance interpreter at AAG. The team is great & very collaborative, the company is very well structured, it is growing year by year! I’d definitely recommend working with AAG!

Bookings are few and far between

Interpreter (Current Employee) - Gloucestershire - 17 October 2019

Though the work in itself is very rewarding, I would like to be offered more jobs in my area. What I would like is to be paid for the hours agreed on and not a penny less. Eg. The appointment is due to last 120 mins but terminates 30 mins earlier than stipulated. Time is money!

Good as a part time job

Freelance Interpreter (Current Employee) - Gloucester, Gloucestershire - 27 September 2019

Can't be taken as a proper job - fractional number of hours, you can never be sure how much you can earn. Good for experience - to put on your CV, but can't be treated as a reliable source of income.

Waste of time

Freelance Translator (Current Employee) - Kingston upon Hull - 5 April 2019

Not worth the effort, sent me to non-existent jobs, or wrong language and or cancelled jobs which they do not inform you of. Hide the fact they take Two Months to pay you for work that you've already done. Salary of £20p\h sounds good but if they only have three jobs a month, its completely useless.

Pros

None.

Cons

Too many to count

Awful - if i could give zero stars i would

Administrator (Former Employee) - West Midlands - 12 December 2018

Poor office environment, essentially treated like a slave expected to clean everyone else's mess and if you don't treat their ideal, they will get rid you. Laughed at on a daily basis by two members of staff. Not many benefits and zero chance of progression. Wouldn't recommend this company or their services to anyone.

Pros

Nothing

Cons

Poor management and horrible staff

Alright

Interpreter and Translator (Former Employee) - Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire - 26 September 2018

I could take jobs via the system or phone call, flexible time and location, I could reject the offer if I can’t attend. The clients are usually punctual.
