- 3.0Aug 14, 2023Work At Home Telephone InterpreterCurrent Employee, less than 1 yearBuenos Aires
Pros
Work from home, USD income for foreign workers, lots of experience in the interpretation field is gained, you can work from anywhere as long as you have a quiet environment and a LAN internet connection available.
Cons
Very poor salary, no paid vacations or holidays, no paid sick days, pretty much no employee protection or coverage, short breaks and the hourly rate is insanely low for the effort the job requires at times and being on the phone around the clock.
