Pros

I've been working with LanguageLine Solutions for more than 5 years now. It's a convenient work from home job with flexible schedule. Full-time interpreters can earn accrued vacation paid and sick paid based on duration of work they contribute to the company versus part-time interpreters earn no benefits.

Cons

The hourly rate for full-time interpreters is very low compare to daily high volume calls. Full-time interpreters receive high volume calls (back-to-back calls) everyday which is very overwhelming that drains their energies out and stressful. In general, calls will not be routed to part-time interpreters, unless all full-time interpreters lines are busy. Health, dental, vision benefits are not provided. All employees need to purchase them on their own.

Pros

Stable source of income, remote

Cons

No communication from management/supervisor, I worked as a remote interpreter for 2 years and I didn't even know who my supervisor is. No good medical benefits. NO paid sick-leave or vacation time. No sense that you are part of a team, It was a very robotic work experience. I got covid and was unable to work for 2 weeks and nobody from the company even contacted me to checkup or inquire my health, after my sick time was over, it was business as usual.

Pros

Over 4 years working with this company. They provided me with paid training for 6 months. Paychecks have always been on time and correct. Pay is fair and within market. Since it’s a very convenient remote position any type of assistance is rendered through access to an online portal library with how to type documents or a call to the 24 hour hotline for assistance or tech support directly with a professional. If further assistance is needed, sending an email gets a response within 24hours. Equipment and some supplies provided. Equipment is fixed or replaced within 24hrs with pay. You set your own schedule, they just ask that you stick to that schedule for at least a year. I work nights, by choice! You do not have to start out working graveyard shift or ever. All employees are respectful and professional.

Cons

I’d say the cons are related to the line of work. Although you are employed through the company you are contracted. This means bare minimal benefits. I’ve heard most people use this type of employment as part time to gain extra income. Not my case, I’m a full time contractor. The only thing I find hard to do is bid for vacation which is Unpaid. Part of the Minimal benefits.

Cons

First of all, they treat you worst than a child. Second, the pay is lousy to say the least, they micromanaged employees to DEATH..👎👎👎condescending attitude, your background or education is meaningless to them. They treat you always as a high school drop out…they were awful and whatever you do please do not waste time with these people…they will humiliate you the nerves…do not work for them please!!!!
