Pros

A great company if you want to expose yourself to the subtitling/dubbing industry. Professional yet friendly coordinators which make communication smooth.

Cons

The rate is quite low if we compare it to other translation companies but the expectation is extremely high. They expect you to deliver almost perfect work within a short period of time. Makes you wonder what's the role of the editors then?

Pros

At the beginning, I had stable work and didn’t have to worry about making ends meet. Iyuno was enough as my main income, and I could live comfortably.

Cons

Over time, my workload was gradually reduced without any explanation, despite having five years of experience and consistently high-quality work. I was effectively replaced by new translators while being kept in the dark. This has left me uncertain about my future, and unfortunately, I can no longer rely on Iyuno as a primary source of income. After years of dedication and turning down other opportunities to stay loyal, this outcome is very disappointing.
