Vantaggi
The job pays well and lets people work from home.
Svantaggi
The projects are very inconsistent. Plus, within a project there is a constant competition on how many task one can get to clock their hours. Because the whole pay roll is based on hours clocked and if you don't get decent amount of tasks then you can't clock those hours. Also, due to bad actors and incapable management, every annotator has to work overtime to finish their daily quota. I've seen my colleagues suffer due to some people cheating the system and getting the easy tasks or due to the cheaters the average task time or everyone is heavily reduced which gave problems to honest workers who gave proper care and time to a difficult task and maintained the quality standards, but then were penalized for their efforts. This is big corporation and even if they say they value our work life balance, I don't see it. If it was a few people, then I'm biased. But literal teams complaining about these issues looks like a management problem.
