Pros

Once an account is opened, it's very easy to access services by phone from wherever you are and to whomever you are trying to reach. Services are generally accurate and professional. Never had a problem with the interpreter on the other line.

Cons

You don't really know the expertise level of the interpreter until you start the conversation. There is no way to know if all the fine points of the conversation including the person's attitude has been accurately conveyed. Always left with a feeling that maybe something was missed. But better than nothing. As an interpreter myself, I have heard some things that were missed.

Pros

Ckecks come on time, with this job you learn how businesses really operate versus what they offer to their customers, plenty of work, reasonable training.

Cons

In this company it seems that everything counts against you, employees' emergencies or daily circumstances such as a doctor's visit become big issues that you need to explain over and over to management. Also their policy of "customers are always right" fails to protect and support the interpreter as a valuable employee when customer are plain rude, the company will back up the customer no matter what. Some calls are highly emotional, lots of anger in long calls especially the ones from mortgage companies, even though you are supposed to be a conduit it is not easy to get rid of all that bad energy that you absorb during hours of receiving the same kind of calls.

Worst job I ever had

Pros

Working from home is the only pro, but lack of compensation and daily mental abuse by clients and company staff soon outweighs it

Cons

No flexibility in schedule, no sick time off, compensation below industry standards, treated like crap most of the time, staff and managers unprofessional, health insurance is a joke, stay away from this company, good to work only as a resume filler
