Pros

WFH, you're able to choose your own schedule

Cons

This job requires you to be fully and proficiently bilingual and it does not pay like a bilingual job at all. 15 dollars an hour to be fully bilingual and have knowledge of so many industries feels like taking advantage of a job market that is already not offering enough. Interpreting is a serious job and it is very sad that a company that provides interpretation services decides to pay so little to their interpreter. Also ZERO benefits at all. Hourly pay rate should start at least at $20 for it to make sense. Who can live of off 15 dolars an hour? This company does not pay you for being bilingual at all. They pay even less than the average monolingual customer service agent. Also you have back to back calls all day long.

Pros

I've been working with LanguageLine Solutions for more than 5 years now. It's a convenient work from home job with flexible schedule. Full-time interpreters can earn accrued vacation paid and sick paid based on duration of work they contribute to the company versus part-time interpreters earn no benefits.

Cons

The hourly rate for full-time interpreters is very low compare to daily high volume calls. Full-time interpreters receive high volume calls (back-to-back calls) everyday which is very overwhelming that drains their energies out and stressful. In general, calls will not be routed to part-time interpreters, unless all full-time interpreters lines are busy. Health, dental, vision benefits are not provided. All employees need to purchase them on their own.

Pros

You get your money on time and can work overtime (which pays 1.5x) almost all the time with a maximum of 66 hours a week.

Cons

They don't care about terps and can easily lay you off if you receive a certain number of claims from the client (even if those are not confirmed and there's no way to check if those statements are true). The job is Stressful and you can burn out easily. They offer basic minimum insurance which is not worth it.
