Pros

Good subtitling platform and nice PMs. The projects were interesting and you never lacked work.

Cons

When payment time arrives, they don't even answer you. The PM's won't answer your queries, suddenly everyone's dead! When you ask the finance department for a payment date, they only tell you some mumbo-jumbo about the famous "payment run": "A payment run has not yet taken place since these became due & a date has yet to be scheduled for the next payment run to be processed. Therefore a date cannot be advised at this time." Over and over again. They don't care about the translators! They owe me around $1200 and I guess I will have to fight hard.

Pros

Zoo excels at providing flexible hours, remote work, good management, and efficient proprietary systems/platforms. I feel sufficiently supported when I work here. It's a nice place to work if you can land a job here.

Cons

Industry disruptions have caused uncertainty in its future and Zoo is, unfortunately, not immune from that. Also, pay is not that great.
