Appen Employee

"I have been working form Appen since 2019. Appen is a good company for a starter and I work mostly based on contract and I love the company and their mode of payment. Appen allows me to work remotely and offers payment based on the number of hours I work for and I love it."

Internet Application Analyst

"I have worked at Appen Since July 2019, shortly after I graduated from the University of Houston. My duty related to evaluate, improve, and optimize the company products for users worldwide, including social media platforms, search engines, voice recognition systems, and more. As an Internet Application Analyst, my main objective is quality control and ensure the users received the service the application intended to do. Also, the job required strong communication skills to report back to the supervisor in written regarding the issue of the application, in order to apply for the future update. The company is great, however, I feel I am lack of opportunity to grow. It has been more than half a year, and I have been done the same on a weekly basis. The job is remote, so I have not met anyone else in the company, which makes me feel that I am not part of the company."

"It's a low paying job, with minimal capacity for promotion. The work is ok, the team setting and working from home is good. It's a job, but not a career."

Appen Employee

"Appen is a great site to work through if you're looking for something you can do from the comfort of your own home. The pay is a little on the low side and you don't interact much with others, but if you enjoy a lot of freedom to focus on your work, then it's perfect. I also really enjoy the flexibility of the schedule. While there are certain restrictions to how much work you can do in a given day, you can work any day at any time, which is great for your life outside of work. There is very little room for progress up the ladder, however, so it can get frustrating if want to do more for the company or you don't have other goals outside."

Appen Employee

"Appen is a company that allows the opportunity to work remotely on projects hosted by a variety of major social media organizations and networks including Facebook, Google, Twitter and Instagram. The company pays lower wages and tends to struggle with support communication at times, though overall it is a sufficient income source with very unique and valuable opportunities to so interesting work."

"Appen is a great company for anyone who is looking to work remotely, with a flexible schedule. I enjoy working my own hours. The main issue is that there does not seem to be enough work to go around or not enough projects to work."
