The Pros to Working From Home for Leapforce


As you can tell from my Leapforce review, I love working from home!  As with all things there's pros and cons to working from home but I have to say there are many more benefits than drawbacks.  

  1. No Babysitters and No Daycare - Staying home with the kids is important to me but it's not easy to live on a one income household.  Leapforce is flexible and I make my own hours.  I can choose how much or little I want to work.  This is perfect for my family!  This means I can be there for my kids and don't have to use all of my paycheck to pay for child care.  It's just not economical to work and then have to pay for childcare.
  2. No Commute and No Gas - Gas is expensive!  Working from home means no paying for gas to commute to work and having no commute means more time to either spend working or spend doing other things.
  3. Every Day is Casual Day - Getting up in the morning and working in your PJs is fabulous!  This doesn't mean it's okay to go to the store in your PJs or not shower, but it's awfully nice not having to get up and immediately have to shower and get dressed up.
  4. No Guilt Sick DaysNobody can completely control getting sick or having sick kids, but that doesn't mean that your boss will be understanding.  Working from home means you don't have to worry about taking too many sick days and upsetting your employer.  If your kids are sick, you don't have to feel guilty about staying home with them.  Another bonus is depending on how ill you or your kids are, you very likely may be able to get some work done.  Just stay in your PJs and work from bed if you feel up to it.  No guilt, no stress, just take care of what you need to without worrying about upsetting your boss!
  5. Vacation on Your Own Schedule - Life can't be all about work.  Everyone needs to find time for fun!  Working for Leapforce has allowed me to take time off without having to arrange it around anyone Else's schedule.  Not only does this include vacation time, but also time for scheduling doctors appointments, dentist appointments and other unavoidable appointments.
  6. Volunteer at School - Working at a regular job often means missing out on volunteering at your child's school or going to their school events such as holiday parties and field trips.  Since I set my own schedule for Leapforce, I'm don't have to miss out on these important memory making moments with my kids.  
  7.  Summertime Means No School - Unless you're a teacher, if you work away from home, the summer months means finding childcare for your school aged kids or letting teenagers fend for themselves while you're at work.  Studies have shown that kids and teens who's parents are involved and present are less likely to get bored and get into trouble.  Being able to stay home is priceless!
  8. Control Your Paycheck - One of the greatest things about working for Leapforce is that you have the ability to control your own paycheck.  What I mean by this is if you decide you need to increase your paycheck, you can work as many hours as you want so you can do this.  If you want to work 80 hours per week, you can and on the flip side, if you want to take it easy and only work a few hours per week, you can do this.  The flexibility is one of the most attractive things about working for Leapforce.
Leapforce is not a pyramid type business where you have to recruit other people in order to make money.  Leapforce pays an hourly wage for the work you do.  If you're at all interested in applying for a position with Leapforce, feel free to click on the link below and good luck!!!

Leapforce Review - Work From Home

 

Work from the Comfort of Your Home with Leapforce

There are many people interested in finding out about Leapforce and the legitimacy of this work from home company.  Searching for reviews on Leapforce often result in a handful of negative reviews from disgruntled, former employees who give a less than desirable impression and that leads to confusion and skepticism.  I'd like to give my review of Leapforce and working from home because quite frankly--I love it!.

What's it About?

In a nutshell, Leapforce provides services to search engines that will bring the best search engine results possible.  Leapforce hires educated individuals who are interested in working a flexible, self-made schedule evaluating search engines.  Employees need to be well-organized and efficient in managing time--no different than any employer desires to find in their work-force.  In order to work for Leapforce, you need to submit your resume and if they are interested, Leapforce requires you to take an entrance exam to find out if the job is a right fit for you.  Of course, you are not paid for the time this takes.  The time spent training is not paid; however, in my opinion, this is well worth it in order to have a job with the flexibility and pay that this provides.  I view it like going to college before you begin your career only you're talking a couple of hours instead of years!

Once hired, you will receive an email with your contract and other information that will need to be signed electronically.  Contracts are renewed every 6 months.  After this is taken care of, you can begin working.  You will be assigned various tasks rating the quality of webpages and sites online, as well as evaluating the quality of search engines.  You can work as much or as little as you'd like and track your time accordingly.  Some projects require extra testing to make sure you are a good fit for the tasks.  Leapforce assigns all tasks an "Estimated Amount of Time" that each task will take and this is what you aim for while working.  While at times the tasks are tedious to the point you want to pull your hair out, other times it can be quite interesting and fun.  It is work...after all...it can't be all fun!  Leapforce does expect you to maintain high quality work.  To do this you need to review the guidelines, do your research, ask questions--everything any other employer would expect.  People have been let go for low quality work (quite often the people who post negative reviews online), but this too is no different from a regular employer. 


How do I get Paid?

While working for Leapforce, employees track their time by using the online invoice.  Leapforce pays employees monthly so at the end of the month, you simply submit your invoice and then once approved, your pay check is paid via direct deposit.  (Although this makes some people nervous, it really is the most convenient way to get paid!)



If it's so Great, Why the Negative Reviews from Some People?

Unrealistic expectations....
This is a real job with real work and real pay so you do have to put time and effort into what you're doing, if you want to stick around.  Quite often, the negative feedback is coming from former employees who didn't like having to put time into learning the job by reading guidelines and putting effort into improving quality.  I've also seen people complain because the job requires "to the minute tracking."  Yes, you only get paid for the time you work!  Certainly this job isn't right for everyone, but having realistic expectations going into it will make a difference.  Lastly, work from home scams have given the industry a bad rap.  People are understandably cautious when it comes to this but Leapforce truly is a good company that upholds high standards.

Is it Worth It?

The answer is YES!  I couldn't be happier being able to work from home and make my own schedule.  Being able to work from home and not having to put the kids in daycare is priceless.  As with all new jobs, there are challenges with learning how things work and becoming familiar with how to do your job, but with patience and high standards this isn't difficult.  If you'd like a good paying job where you can work from home and set your own schedule, Leapforce may be just what you're looking for!
