How hiring works

  1. Apply to a project on CloudFactory's job board on Workable. Each post is for one country and gives the hours and the length of the project.
  2. Some posts start with a short eligibility questionnaire. For voice projects, shortlisted people send about 1 minute of raw, unprocessed recordings.
  3. If CloudFactory selects you, you read and sign the project terms. Voice contributors give perpetual, irrevocable rights to their recordings.
  4. CloudFactory confirms your hours and weekly commitment before the work starts. All contact is by email, so check your spam folder.

What workers say

Good

  • Some posts show clear pay: $75 for a 1 to 2 hour task, or $22 an hour for a 60 to 90 day review project.
  • CloudFactory started in 2010, raised $78 million, and says it never asks applicants for payments or fees.
  • Glassdoor reviewers give culture and work-life balance 4.0 of 5, and many praise the flexible hours and remote work.

Watch out for

  • Pay is a common complaint. Glassdoor reviewers give compensation 3.2 of 5 and senior management 3.1 of 5.
  • Most roles outside Nepal, Kenya, the Philippines, and Colombia are short, one-time projects, such as 4 weeks or a single 1 to 2 hour task.
  • Trustpilot has no reviews of CloudFactory, so there is little public feedback from contractors in the US and Europe.
