R.R. Donnelley reviews

Too much processes compared to the work itself, the manager is unapproachable, babarahin ka lagi, low salary, lay off is too fast if the clients decide to cut down the number of employees.

- Pay is laughable, especially for proofreaders. $17 an hour for college-educated professionals while people with less education in document processing make upwards of $25. - WFH options are abysmal and slowly being phased out entirely. You will have to bake in the heat all summer to commute. - If you are joining Project Cardinal, be ready for an excessively high turnover rate. You may be asked to train newcomers, which will require planning for which there are no guidelines. Workflow coordinators sack proofreaders with extremely tight deadlines and have no logical or practical knowledge about how long it takes to read and edit. - Additionally, Project Cardinal is excessively fussy about confidentiality to the point that you will not be allowed to bring a cellphone even close to the office you will work 8 hours a day in. No music. No podcasts. No using the computers for those things either, as it is “too much bandwidth.” - Management for the legal accounts here is… divisive, to say the least - Absolutely no warning for the disturbing content you will read. Most of the time it is boring, sometimes it is harrowing. - You will NOT be allowed to take your PTO, much less take a leave, on the dates and times you request due to “coverage.” Management forces employees to barter with coworkers and attempt to convince someone else to cover shifts like we work in a restaurant. This usually involves asking someone who is already overworked and miserable to commit to working a degree of overtime in order to make sure the 24/7 operation doesn’t reveal any gaps in coverage (wouldn’t want the law firm to know about the skeleton crew and irreconcilable turnover), so the answer is usually No, and that is the extent of effort put toward accommodating your request.
