r/Welocalize

I'm aware I'm probably an idiot but when I put the new project code in the timesheet, it doesn't show up. Any idea how I managed to mess that up? I've tried a few times. Thanks.

I can’t submit the confirmation page in my job application. It keeps telling me to download the chrome extension but it is already installed and authenticated.
Any idea what i can do ? I have reinstalled it, restarted my laptop as well - nothing seems to work

Also, are there no tasks in the fact checking analyst role (india) ? I joined a week back and there is nothing so far :/

Has anyone else been experiencing a limit of one hour per day for SQR tasks?

Task volume has been low for months, as many people have pointed out. But I've noticed for the past week that tasks seem to run out specifically at the one-hour mark. It lets me finish my current task, but then it doesn't give me any new ones after the one-hour mark.

I'm not seeking any sort of solution here. I'm just curious if this is a broad limit for many/all raters.

Anyone else who just got terminated from SQR receive this?

I mean...

Hi everyone,
I’m writing this out of sheer frustration because I was just terminated from Project Lyra for trying to be honest and compliant with the rules. I’m hoping u/WelocSupport or someone from management can look into this ridiculous misunderstanding.
Here is what happened: I noticed that even though my NordVPN app was completely turned off, there were still two idle NordVPN background services running in Windows task manager (but not during work). Wanting to make sure everything was 100% safe and that I wouldn't trigger any automated flags, I opened a ticket to ask support if these inactive background processes could be a problem.
Instead of getting a reply or an explanation, I was immediately terminated from the project. It seems like support didn't even bother to read my question and just assumed I was using a VPN.
To clarify: I have NEVER used a VPN while working. The app was completely disabled, and my IP/geolocation has always been consistent and authentic. I was literally punished just for asking a preventive question. Since the termination, support has been completely ghosting me and ignoring my follow-up tickets.
I have now completely uninstalled the software and all its background processes to avoid any issues. I kindly ask the Welocalize team to manually review my actual IP logs and reinstate my account.

My original ticket number is: #1103682
Has anyone else experienced something like this? Any advice on how to get a real human to actually read my appeal?

My work availability has been very sporadic the past few weeks. How has the Helpfulness group been doing? Still largely NTA? Anyone log some decent hours just on Helpfulness without refreshing all day? I've gotten the few emails about there being a task drop but just logging on now to find NTA. I am curious if there is going to be a big drop soon since we got the new guidelines.

I think I may have gotten some News Rating tasks but I'm not sure and I dont want to end up billing for the wrong thing. It said experimental in the corner. Its layout reminded me of the news rating tasks in the training however they looked a bit different.

How does the pay for this project work? They never said anything in the emails.

So why is it that for over 2 years I have been tracking and submitting my time the exact same way and always got 99% (a couple times I would hit 100%) on the weekly reports, but now that I have installed their mandatory extension I get a report of over 100%?

As the title says..

I've applied and given the assessment, but no response yet.

I got an email with a survey about working for Welocalize. The last page allows you to add your own comments. I did that in an earlier survey and I got a reply in email telling me why I was wrong. So they knew I sent it.

Note that it doesn't say the survey is anonymous. You will just assume it is because surveys usually are, and they don't tell you it isn't.

Or is it just me? I’ve gotten an email, and text for task drops while looking at NTA on my RH.

They don't even make any sense.

I got hired in June of 2023, did solid work for a while getting anywhere from 10-15 hours a week. Flash forward to July 2025, I hit a rough patch in life blah blah blah long story short: I just stopped.

I didn't do anything WeLocalize related - not a single task, didn't read a single email, read no updated guidelines, completed/read no training materials, etc. until I finally logged back into my outlook one day in January 2026 expecting to find a letter of termination, disciplanary action, account restricions - something of that nature and....nothing.

February 1 I logged back in to RaterHub and picked up where I left off. I threw caution to the wind and avoided trying to "catch up" on updated guidelines or any new "best practices" info I missed. Even still, my productivity reports have been well below the weekly minimum from then until now (I have 2 other jobs now, this is only meant to be for side monies) and I still have no hide nor hair of anything regarding my status as an employee.

I keep seeing post after post of people receiving termination emails, and apparently this is like the second wave of firings? I guess I just wanted to share this for those that have been fired, at least from my perspective it seems completely random and arbitrary because SURELY if there was a method to their madness I would have been at the top of the list a long time ago.

Hey guys, how is everyone's AQR queue looking these days?

Honestly, my account has been pretty dry lately. I'm barely getting 30-40 tasks a day, and it's getting frustrating. Meanwhile, I have a friend in the exact same locale who is getting a steady flow of tasks every single day. It really feels like the task distribution is completely broken right now, like only a few select accounts are getting all the work while the rest of us are left with the crumbs.

Sorry, couldnt change the title - OBVIOUSLY this is WeLO related stuff here - reddit moved my post over here - .

Question about Welocalize AI/data quality analyst roles

I was recently approached for a quality/data quality analyst role involving AI evaluation/data labeling with Welocalize.

The application process has been pretty disorganized so far. I haven’t received clear answers about equipment, onboarding, location expectations, or what the day-to-day work actually looks like.

I was initially interviewed for one role, then offered a slightly different role at a lower hourly rate. The original description suggested the work could be remote, but I’m now being told the role is mandatory full-time onsite with no exceptions. I’m also still unclear on basic details like where the work would take place, who the client is, and what the schedule/task flow actually looks like.

Has anyone here worked in this type of role with Welocalize, especially AI evaluation, data quality, or labeling projects?

I’m mainly trying to understand:

• Is mandatory onsite work normal for these roles, or are some people able to work remotely?
• Is it truly 40 hours of continuous work, or does it depend on task availability?
• How reliable are the hours and payments?
• What is management/onboarding like?
• Are sudden role changes, unclear communication, or lower-than-advertised rates common?

I’m trying to figure out whether this is just normal contractor chaos or whether these are real red flags. I’d appreciate hearing from anyone who has worked with them directly, especially on AI evaluation or data quality projects.

I can’t enter my work hours. It won’t let me click. What should I do? Is Workday having problems? Or is it just mine?

Sqr-US
Anyone get an invite for AI Helpfulness Evaluator - English (USA). Like a 2 day thing and been onboarded yet?

We're supposed to submit hours on the last day of the month in Workday, but I've had constant NTA and therefore don't have any hours yet this week, so the submit button isn't showing up. How am I supposed to submit?
