Pros

Nice work environment, free snacks

Cons

No job security, they can and do fire people all the time because they hire linguists as contractors. Treated as disposable.

Thanks for leaving a review. I like our snacks too! I'm sorry your experience as a contractor wasn't as fulfilling as you'd hoped. We try hard to be as clear and upfront about contract terms as possible, and we'll keep working on getting better at that. Best wishes in your next role.

Pros

When there is work available, especially when this project first launched, you could make decent money. The Quality Improvement Program was once realistic and managers were accessible. They used to give us sick leave and it felt like a real job.

Cons

They took away our sick leave. Barely any work since Christmas, around 5 hours per week if you're lucky. The Quality Improvement Program has gone down the toilet. The quality checks constantly contradict the guidelines and the feedback from management is often contradictory and wildly inconsistent depending on the turnover. Lower level employees are constantly afraid of losing their job because there are random firings every quarter with no explanation.
