Shit company with very poor labor ethics.
Made me lose time with tests and security like it was for The Pentagon ( passed everything, nothing to hide) and then just said for reasons we will not reveal your out...
Maybe they just steal personal data...

This is a big scam
This is a big scam. They ask you to May a payment before they can pay you for the work you did. They continue to lie about paying and give you work without payment. They use alias names. They don't even deserve a 1 star.

If a project manager contacts you, you've made it, otherwise is a waste of time!
I completed their training, I passed all their tests, and I was even summoned for a live session meeting to start working on the project...and nothing. The meeting got postponed until further notice; and that was it. I started receiving automatic emails that had nothing to do with me, and no one responded to my tickets—a huge disappointment.

Horrendous experience
My experience with this company has been incredibly disappointing. I started working for them as a linguist a few years ago, and during the COVID period, I had to call the head office repeatedly to get paid—despite sending numerous emails that went completely unanswered. After that, I stopped accepting projects due to their horrendous invoicing system.
A few months ago, I received a job offer from Welo Data, which seemed to be their brand for AI projects. I went through weeks of back-and-forth emails, sending documents, etc., only for their platform to automatically reject my application after I entered my country of residence (which was in line with the job requirements). I spent hours trying to resolve this issue, but they ignored me and eventually ghosted me.
Soon after, I received another job offer from the same company. Willing to give them another opportunity, I shared the issues I had faced previously. Instead of addressing my concerns, they simply instructed me to fill out the application form again. So, I began the process from the beginning. I created a new account on a different platform, followed all the new instructions, and spent additional time sending emails to inquire about the status of my application, as they failed to follow up.
Once again, the person I was in contact with stopped responding. Shortly after, I received an email notifying me that my application had been rejected, despite not having taken any test—I had simply followed the necessary administrative procedures.
After reaching out to their support team, they simply replied (paraphrasing): "We can’t tell you why, but your account has been deactivated, and you won’t be able to apply for any jobs in the future."
I would advise others to avoid their job offers. It’s a complete waste of time, and they don’t have the decency to provide explanations or proper support. This has been the worst experience I’ve had by far.

They send POS for 1 dollar but if you…
They send POS for 1 dollar but if you earned a little bit larger like 20 or 40 dollars they don't pay. This company is shit.

🙄Do not apply for their remote jobs!
🙄Do not apply for their remote jobs!! That's a total waste of your time!!
After spending nearly a month to finish their test, training, and assessment, the process is not as smooth as you imagine. Sometimes when you finish one step, it takes a few days to update your status.
When I finished all the stuff, and moved to the final step, submitting my financial information. They will require you to submit your bank account, ID, passport photo, and your photo. In this process, the verification websites went wrong a few times. I retried and submitted it twice, and it shows it's done. Then I refreshed the website and updated my status. Guess what?? It shows "Verification Failed. It won't be possible to move forward with the process." At this point, when I try to go back to their main page, and no jobs are shown, I cannot do anything!!
I have also found that some people experienced the same thing as me. Are they truly hiring or is it a SCAM for getting your personal information????🙃

Scam company - Welocalize
A girl named Evalina Jesse has posted some jobs on Threads, and my friend messaged her to work then she has given her 55 pages pdf to retype and she said she will pay her $1500 for that work. But after she completed the work, she said her to connect to her Payment gateway manager and after getting bank details, he just said to pay $85 for ID Card and sent some ID card reference. After that now they stop replying. They all are fraud named Evalina Jesse and Andrew Nelson.
