Thank you to the performer for the work done and the efforts made. I would also note that the task itself was quite complex.
Pros of the performer:
- Affordable execution price
- Open to communication, receptive to the client's comments (many edits and improvements were made)
- The dialogue is constructive
Cons of the performer:
- Delays in communication: responses came once a day, around 11:00 PM or 12:00 AM.
- Lack of feedback. The performer did not ask clarifying questions during the execution and acted at their own discretion. This led to unnecessary work being done, which I had to remove/delete, and critical necessary tasks not being completed.
- Failure to meet deadlines. The initially agreed deadline of "2 weeks" turned into a month, after which the work remained very raw. After discussing the necessary improvements, the performer indicated that they would finish in 2 days. The performer contacted me after 6 days with similarly unfinished work. Another 2 days later, the work was corrected, but still not completely.
As a result, I was put in a difficult situation with deadlines, where I had to finish a significant amount of work myself and correct inaccuracies on my own. This could have been avoided if the performer had communicated more and warned that they were falling behind the specified deadlines.
