Kinda messy, but you can make money - Software Engineer Outlier AI Employee Review

part-time work, flexible, and you have a lot of autonomy

difficult to get assigned to projects

The short time that I had consistent work was very good. Never had a problem with pay. Paid fairly for work. Plus, I really enjoyed learning all the different tasks. With the "Cons" issues made clear upfront, I would recommend this platform to a friend.

Applied as a specialist. Only offered generalist work. And haven't had any new projects for a while. The projects I was invited to earlier this year were poorly designed and involved long onboarding processes. They were all iterations of the same poorly-designed project. Since then, nothing. It's frustrating to see job listings from them in my field of expertise and not be able to apply to them. And yes, I've kept my resume and LI updated. It doesn't seem to matter. Also, comparing the community chat platform, monitoring, and ease of use to other (similar) platforms I work with, Outlier's is the worst one. I've found that there are far more people who use Reddit to get their project questions answered and to try to find out what is happening than use and actually get answers from Outlier's own discussion platform.
