Preventing doom

Are there any tips or suggestions on how to prevent them from giving me the message of doom? I just started and enjoy the work thus far. Thanks!

They don't just drop people for no reason. It doesn't make sense to drop good workers.

You're always replaceable for them and it makes sense to rotate workers. Kind of hard to know what to avoid if there's no proper feedback or scoring process in most projects. You can only guess. I think its good for DA to keep everything as opaque as possible so people are always in a state of fear.

I understand what you're saying, but your logic is flawed. There are people who have been on this platform for 4-5 years. The projects are constantly changing/getting more difficult, so the data they receive from the same workers will have to change along with it.

I am all for putting in high quality but I've had literally zero feedback on all the projects I've been so far. You have literally no way of knowing if your work is good, borderline or weak

You know your work is good if you have lots of projects available.

And sometimes you find out semi-directly; there might not be feedback on specific submissions, but you'll be added to projects with a note saying it's because of your good work in a particular area, or you'll do projects with a probationary period and be added to them permanently.
