Pros

Job training. You get experience in interpreting if you've never been an interpreter before. Picking your own schedule is pretty cool Also working from home is a great deal, save on the money for the commute

Cons

Rude LEPs and clients If something wrong happens during the call, YOU are to blame, not the customer or the LEP (even if it wasn't your fault) Constant calls Too much pressure No PTO, holidays off You're treated more like a machine than a human Pay is terrible. You make more working at your local Target store than you do here

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. As a “Great Place to Work” we really care about our interpreters and are continuously working on improvements. We schedule interpreters to support the Limited English Proficient community we serve. Unfortunately, it was not a good fit for you and we wish you well in your future endeavors.

Pros

a part-time job that you can have on the side; if you speak a language fluently, it usually does not require too much of your intellect nor energy (although things can get stressful and tiring at times, and there are some difficult calls that require focus, patience, and composure). I can't imagine someone would want to work full-time for LLS or treat it as their career. No opportunities for growth, for collaboration, for making any connections with co-workers, or even speaking to your supervisor. In fact, you don't have a supervisor. At best you can talk to some AI/ computer. Or create some ridiculous support tickets whenever you need to sneeze...

Cons

Very low pay and practically no benefits. No vacation. You pay for your own internet connection, you have to work on holidays without extra pay, and you have to spend hours/ fill in tons of paperwork if you want to take any, unpaid, time off.

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We are always striving to be better for the employees who are LanguageLine’s core. We have many resources including a team of managers available to support and help our interpreters grow and be successful. After doing an extensive evaluation of our pay and benefits in comparison to other employers in our business, we find that our compensation and benefits while not above average, are consistent with the industry. Please note we regularly review industry compensation. If you would like to discuss further, please email interpretercommunications@languageline.com.
