Pros

Set your own schedule. Work from home or from anywhere that has a good internet connection. They provide good training and clear standards to follow. Using their transcription software is significantly better than typing from scratch, like you do in some other companies. You get paid weekly.

Cons

In general, pay is low for all the work involved, no benefits, high taxes. There are too many contractors and too few jobs available most of the time. It often feels like you spend more time refreshing the screen and fighting to claim jobs than you do actually working. Jobs that require a lot of work and used to pay well before are now paying half that rate. Previously responsive management / operations team are often very slow to respond and sometimes do not even respond at all anymore. Though they are aware of this problem, they do nothing to fix it. It seems that they do not really care about their longtime contractors anymore and are only interested in adding new people, thereby making everything worse for everyone involved (less jobs, lower pay, worse experience overall).

Pros

Legal ramifications that make their product a necessity which makes the sales process easy. Tech team is solid and smart. The floor employees (for the most part) are smart and talented.

Cons

The entire sales management team is pedestrian, at best. They fail to set proper expectations then get borderline abusive at questioning their motives. Their lack of experience in driving a young company into the mature stage is written everywhere. The culture is borderline toxic with people polite to your face, and the constant gossip mill churning about. If you don't dive into their cult like sensibilities you are already on the outs. They aren't above questionable ethical practices either. Keeping competitor assets 1099 to poach or get insider information. I know of other employees that were fired unceremoniously for reasons that are benign at best. They dangle a shred of severance to get you to keep quiet, and promise that if that person keeps their mouth shut they will give you a good reference. (Which they end up not doing anyways) Don't be fooled by this garbage.

The management team at 3Play Media believes in open, honest communication and transparency. Quite frankly, we are surprised by your review as we have not received feedback regarding these types of concerns from other employees. In our most recent employee survey 94% of our employees polled are highly satisfied and we received recognition in 2017 for being one of the best places to work in Boston. We are confident that there is no unethical behavior or practices within our organization and would like to investigate your concerns. Please reach out to our Director of HR, Amy Dwyer, at your earliest convenience to discuss in more detail.
