Pros

- If you are in an easy project, it can feel like you are being adequately compensated - Great health benefits - 40 hours/week- hourly. Not expected to work after you clock out.

Cons

- You are there to annotate, and annotate only. Very few employees are able to expand responsibilities. Promotions are somewhat political. - Every aspect of your annotating is tracked, and if you don't meet any one of those metrics one week, there is a short performance improvement plan before you are let go (if you fail to meet metrics several consecutive weeks). - Office culture can be pretty toxic- Annotators generally don't like working there, or the people they work under. Managers are stretched thin and offer little support. - Subjective judgements impact annotators' stats.

Pros

There are many great benefits, including health insurance, reduced prices on Tesla vehicles, partnerships with other companies for reduced prices, a monthly allowance to cover public transportation, six weeks of maternity/paternity leave, etc.

Cons

The turnover rate is unexpectedly high. Remote work is not and will not ever be an option. The schedules are strict. Projects, seating, and teams change frequently, so there's no loyalty or camaraderie. The expectations are high and versatile. Getting a promotion is difficult, and there are very few opportunities even to interview for one.
