The company is also a great workplace. Well, not really great - just frustrating.

Pros

You can get accepted easily through their very, very easy transcriber/QA qualifying exam.

Cons

Pays really bad. Late payment - you have to submit another ticket for that and wait days. Rejects job even if it is of high quality - you won't get paid for that. Rejects even an hour long file up to $70 if the grumpy QA/Reviewer strikes again. Admins don't care about your concerns. Support section that's like a ghost - not really there. Site loads really slow. You usually get "send error report" every time you go to a QA session - you won't get jobs. When a big pool of work is available, after seconds it's gone because of the big number of employees joining their easy no-need-for-a-high-quality-transcriber/QA qualifying exam. More workers, less jobs. Admins also grumpy.

Pros

Interesting content and can work anytime that suits.

Cons

Horribly low pay. $20/audio hour - it takes about half an hour to an hour to transcribe a 4 minute clip so the pay rate works out to be quite miserable. Certainly don't count on making a living.
