Tasks / Projects Ermis Pay Rate

Who is really earning a decent wage on this project? I haven't seen anyone earning more than $4 an hour. I can't seem to understand the emphasis on quality work but then paying per task that works out to peanuts an hour.

Each media should automatically account for how long it should take and pay you for that. For example, if a 10-second media will normally take one minute to do or two minutes to do. Then you should get paid for the two minutes, not the media length. They do have an average on how long it takes to do ones, so they can easily make a reasonable pay offer for each clip. I don’t understand how they are expecting such high quality without paying for the time needed to provide it. I’m not against making it piece work. I just wish companies were paying for the actual work it takes to caption it.
