It's not really interpreting, they want human recording machines.
Pros
Working at home is the only thing, but given the boring job is not something good.
Cons
Miserable payment for the work load, too much requirements, tests and exams for applying, they control your life, only 30 minutes to have lunch, sitting all day, they only focus in your mistakes, you don't have any free holidays at all. No help from anyone when having a tough customer or situation. They don't appreciate what it takes to be good interpreter and speak fluently a foreign language. They expect you to get every word from the customer, not to transmit the message in a good way. You are basically a human recorder that has to interpret every word, not interpret, just translate. Supervisors and trainers are hypocrites with no sense of humanity at all. They treat you as a thieve all the time, as if you're going to steal someone's information. The reality is that they are the thieves. They save the money of electricity, water, paper, internet. The job is boring and tedious, they should make it bearable at least, but they're on your back all the time, trying to make you fall. Avoid at all costs
