The Work Environment – Inside a Language Services Company

Ana — Thu, 30 May 2019 20:58:39 +0000

Here at Monterey Languages Services we have a unique work environment. We like to think of our work as a solar system. Each team member is a planet that follows its own path, but each planet is going in the same direction, and all orbit a giant star which is our client base. Each employee is able to work both independently and in unison with the whole team to meet a wide variety of tasks ranging from scheduling interpreters to developing mobile apps.

Our team is spread throughout the country and operates in different time zones. Like the sun, our workflow moves from east to west, so being in different time zones gives us more opportunity to serve our client. We have several systems in place to help us work together effectively, so despite being in different locations we always come together to complete large (and small) projects.

Our orbits are dynamic and energetic because our team members are professional and proactive. We recently completed a 17k-word EnglishàSpanish translation project in just 48 hours. Because this project’s scope was challenging with a tight deadline, it required a lot of coordination. We collaborated with 10 translators, consistently communicating with them as well as our internal team members to make sure everything was getting done while making sure multiple people weren’t working on the same thing. It was intense, but all of our planets aligned for this project; our team worked hard, communicated effectively, and produced a 17k-word translation that we are proud of.

We value our individual creativity and spirit. Everybody has a different and important role to play, but we all have to figure out solutions to problems, work out details, and collaborate with each other. Our work requires energy and creativity, and perhaps most importantly, passion. We aim to provide our team members with the tools and flexibility needed for them to work as effectively as possible and to grow as employees; we want our employees to innovate and create their own effective routine at work. This individual-driven approach challenges our employees to think energetically at work and makes coming to work exciting.

At Monterey Language Services, we are always learning and adapting our methods to the growing needs of the language services industry. Our focus on both individuality and collaboration helps us excel in meeting the needs and requests of our clientele.
