Pros

remote work, somewhat flexible hours

Cons

Working at Innodata is soul-crushing at best. Every second spent on the clock counts toward some kind of ridiculous metric, and you're micromanaged beyond belief. You can't be away from your computer for more than 8 minutes, otherwise you're booted off the platform and you have to make up the few minutes that didn't count towards your shift. They don't give PAID 10-MINUTE BREAKS because they make it so that you have to make up that time since you need to hit exactly 8 hours of production, otherwise they will let you know when you're even 1 minute short of the 8 hours. People are laid off left, right, and center, and management doesn't bother letting anybody else know. Innodata laid off over 100 employees through some BS impersonal email sent after work hours, only giving everyone just 3 days notice. Project communication is so disorganized and chaotic, people don't know what's going on half the time. The work itself is wildly mind-numbing and meaningless. You have to settle for lateral moves before any actual promotions, and there are no raises. They require BS wellness meetings every month, where you meet with a counselor with colleagues you don't know and are asked personal questions in the name of corporate wellness. I wish only the worst for Innodata.

Pros

Remote work Okay pay for AI Majority of coworkers fantastic

Cons

Constant lay offs with no acknowledgement of them to most staff, NO raises unless promoted and promotions aren't frequent anymore, volatile, unethical clients, horrific communication and practically no management software. Nepotism, homophobia, a utterly lacking HR department, one rep didn't even know the word neurodivergent. Heavy focus on stock prices while they lay off huge swaths of the workforce. Innodata is nearing 30 years but I've seen startups be more organized. They refuse to promote team leads to team manager levels (pay difference) despite us all doing the same work. The most short-sighted company I've ever seen.
