Pros

-if u love language and talking, u will enjoy this. (but back-to-back call may eventually drain ur enthusiasm.) -receiving salary on time. -management will try to accommodate ur request (as long as it's reasonable) -WFH

Cons

Most of the limited-english proficiency person are elderly. Therefore, in addition to interpretation, u need have patience. Sometimes u need to shout because a lot of them are hard of hearing. Some of their native language grammar is poor, and they often speak with a strong local accent, which means you may need to reconstruct and understand their sentences before you can interpret. These factors make it even more challenging. Now, imagine receiving over 80 calls in one shift, non-stop—it can be really stressful. The income is fixed, with no paid leave, no bonuses, and no raises. The salary is considered a bit low for a night shift. The shift schedule rotates from time to time, which can impact health (at least for me). Additionally, being on a night shift means it takes longer to recover when you're sick. Taking medical leave will affect u meeting ur salary targets unless you make up for the missed hours. In the end, it feels like you're sacrificing both your health and income. For annual leave, you have to bid for it. There are only very limited slots available each month, and some days are restricted.

Pros

Ability to work from home. Opportunity to help people and have an impact. Regular chances for overtime hours.

Cons

Often on back-to-back-to-back calls. Not a lot of room for career progression as an interpreter. Managers are basically just supervisors and don't take much interest in you outside of what you can do for them.
