Pros

Love doing UserBob hits. i find them to be quite fun. I enjoy talking out loud about sites to help the clients figure out how to tweak it to make it better and user friendly.
These hits are very easy to do; he gives you complete instructions. He's very very good at communicating with you should you run into any problems or if there's issues with the work you turn in. Very polite and professional. Pays very well on all of them. I've done hits for him for a few years now. Really enjoy them. Any time I've had questions or ran into anything and reached out, he was quick to get back to me. If he ran into issues with my recordings, he was quick to let me know and not ban me from future hits he produced.

Cons

None that come to mind unless you don't like to talk out loud!

Pros

HITs are always fun and interesting. I actually find it so much easier to give web/app developers feedback via screen recording instead of trying to write out an explanation.
Requester is very responsive and will give tips and a chance to redo the task instead of rejecting your work.
Pay is quite generous on most HITs. Once you get a feel for it, you can do the tasks a lot quicker. I personally like to check the quality of my screen recordings before submitting them. It's just force of habit, but you can do them much quicker if you don't.
Fast approval and ongoing bonus for filling out demographics survey.

Cons

I can't think of any, unless you don't like making voice recordings, then you'll hate doing these but personally it's a plus for me.

Pros

Easy and was actually fun to do.

I should also note that this Requester is one of the few I have seen that will actually sometimes pay a bonus for reporting a bug in their HITs. Most will email you and say "thanks" (if that)...but I've actually by paid a bonus by UserBob for reporting a technical issue.

I'm using this HIT to note that generosity, because the bonus was paid on a HIT that I didn't type a review on at the time and so the window to review it (and mention any bonus) had passed. I didn't, however, like the idea of letting the Requester's generosity go by without a compliment, so I added that "wow, that was nice of you!" note here.

Cons

None.

Approval Tracking

Wage Aggregate Tracking

This is fairly straightforward: we take the completion time & the reward amount (where available) and calculate the average hourly rate for the task. We then apply that number to a simple range based on US minimum wage standards to color-code the data for easy to digest numerical data.

Color Pay Range (Hourly) Explanation
RED < $7.25 / hr Hourly averages below US Federal minimum wage
ORANGE $7.25 - $10.00 / hr Hourly averages between Federal & highest statewide (CA) minimum wages.
GREEN > $10.00 / hr Hourly averages above all US minimum wage standards

Reward Sentiment

Not all HITs are created equal. Sometimes an hourly wage doesn't convey the full story of a HIT's true worth, so we encourage workers to give their opinion on the overall pay of the task. Was it $8/hr to rate pictures of puppies? A worker could justifiably bump up the rating a bit for something so adorable. 10 hours locked in Inquisit? Even for $10/hr many workers would appreciate the heads up on such a task. The Pay Sentiment rating helps connect workers beyond the hard data.

Icon Rating Suggested Guidelines
Underpaid 1 / 5
  • Very low or no pay
  • Frustrating work experience
  • Inadequate instructions
Low 2 / 5
  • Below US min-wage ($7.25/hr)
  • No redeeming qualities to make up for pay
Fair 3 / 5
  • Minimum wages for task (consider SE taxes!)
  • Work experience offers nothing to tip the scales in a positive or negative direction
Good 4 / 5
  • Pay is above minimum wage, or compensates better than average for the level of effort required.
  • The overall work experience makes up for borderline wages
Generous 5 / 5
  • Pay is exceptional.
  • Interesting, engaging work or work environment
  • Concise instructions, well designed HIT.

Communication Ratings

Communication is an underrated aspect of mTurk. Clear, concise directions. A fast response to a clarification question or a resolution to a workflow suggestion can all be valuable aspects of interaction between Requesters & Workers and its worth keeping track of. Plus everyone enjoys the peace of mind knowing that if something does go wrong there will be an actual human getting back to you to solve the issue.

Icon Rating Suggested Guidelines
Unacceptable 1 / 5
  • No response at all
  • Rude response without a resolution
Poor 2 / 5
  • Responsive, but unhelpful
  • Required IRB or extra intervention
Acceptable 3 / 5
  • Responded in a reasonable timeframe
  • Resolves issues to a minimum level of satisfaction.
Good 4 / 5
  • Prompt Response
  • Positive resolution
Excellent 5 / 5
  • Prompt response time
  • Friendly & Professional
  • Helpful / Solved Issues
  • Interacts within the community

Approval Time Tracking

This rating is strictly for approval times. Let's face it, no one wants to mix approval time ratings with how fast a Requester rejects a HIT, so we've saved rejection flags for another category. This provides a more straightforward way to know about how long your HIT might sit pending before paying out. The default auto-approval for most MTurk tasks is 3 days, the maximum is 30 days. We've tried to base our ratings around those data-points.

Icon Rating Approval Time
Very Slow 1 / 5 Over 2 weeks
Slow 2 / 5 ~1 - 2 Weeks
Average 3 / 5 ~3 - 7 Days
Fast 4 / 5 ~1 - 3 Days
Very Fast 5 / 5 ~24 hours or less
