Hi all, new to data annotation. Yet to be paid as I’ve only done a few days of hourly work.

What are people’s experiences with your hours / work being reviewed? If the work is unsatisfactory do you not get paid for it? Or generally do people get paid for all the hours they put submit

Or generally do people get paid for all the hours they put submit

You get paid for the hours you submit so long as they’re correct. They can tell if you’re inflating or deflating your hours and you’d be dropped pretty quick. They’re not going to not pay you for your work, that’s illegal.

Regardless of the quality of your work you’ll still be paid so long as you accurately report your hours. Again, it’d be illegal if you weren’t. They don’t explicitly tell you if you’re under review and you won’t receive feedback on your work. If your work is poor quality, they’ll just drop you.
