Pluspunten

There's good support staff, and the large number of friendly overseas management makes it easy to cut through to problems and address issues. Benefits are reasonable, and due to the distributed locations it's possible to work from home to some degree (depending on position).

Minpunten

The biggest hurdle for the company is their desire to move away from their core competency of data conversion, specifically in the publishing world. There is a strong push from upper management and the CEO to act and think more like a software company, but without the speed or investment to make such a change. As such, the projects that get the most attention are those with low risk and high reward -- which are rare, and take a significant build-up. Typically, winning and delivering these projects last beyond a single employee or set of employees, resulting in any momentum or internal software developments falling by the side. Compensation is a positive, but there is minimal support staff once projects are won from sales.

Pluspunten

The vast majority of the people I worked with on projects for a major internet company were friendly and educated. The pay was decent for trivial remote work.

Minpunten

Projects were tedious at best and seemed poorly designed. Rubrics designed either by the contracting company or Innodata were often poorly thought through, and rules tripped over themselves or remained ambiguous. The company we were sub-contracted to was infamous for not replying to inquiries asking for clarification for how to evaluate the AI. Prompts given to the AI were often incoherent--just a word or name, often misspelled--which left us making arbitrary decisions about how well the AI addressed the prompt. Rubrics were hidden from employees evaluating the AI, though that seemed to be a result of neglect by a company still figuring out how to run things, not an active decision to deceive employees. I left well before the recent waves of layoffs. Management had tried to assure us that jobs were secure, but that seemed delusional given that the contracting company was farming out work through other companies rather than hire us itself.
