The tasks are intellectually engaging, the onboarding process is structured, and the platform gives professionals a chance to apply real-world experience in AI training, evaluation, and expert review work.

Pros

My pre-hire research found Mercor rated as an "above average to very good" AI-modeling platform, which is in line with Glassdoor's 4.0 employee rating. Based on my experience at Mercor, its employee rating is inflated, and the AI-modeling platform industry is in dire need of improvement if Mercor's industry is above average. Here are my pros: - Being paid for time spent on training. - Pay for Generalists is among the industry's highest. - Working remotely and on your schedule.

Cons

Communication at Mercor is horrible. For example, most of the emails I receive in my Mercor email account are coworkers who have no idea what to do next or who to ask to find out. Prompting emails from our Project Lead that instruct us to disregard said emails. Here are a few more cons: - Blaming everything on our clients. - Communication's ineffective and inefficient. - Disorganization. - Fear of being offboarded suddenly and without explanation. - Lack of employee rapport. - Not being valued. - Projects don't last long. And you may wait weeks for the next one.
