GunChleoc Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 I ran into bad conditions on a translation job once using a platform that shall not be named. The deadline was 2 weeks away, but they had a counter running for each batch that you picked up. If you didn't finish the batch within 4 hours, they'd put it back into "auction", and if somebody else picked it up, you lost your salary for the words already translated in that batch... we completed the job commitment because we had promised the client, and then said goodbye to that platform, never to be graced by us again. The platform states that they "care about translation quality". Aye, right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
