Minpunten
"If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is." I was so excited when I saw this opportunity. The staff seemed so nice when they reached out. They promised wages of up to $4k per month, and all work-from-home! Sounds great, right? A number of my friends applied for the job as well. The pay is $14 for every 1000 words. Sounds reasonable right? Here is the catch: They expect you to take an incomprehensive text and make it worthy of top journalistic standards. Any remaining error is YOUR fault, even though you salvaged this illegible "research paper" from going into someone's junk folder. Most of the time, you can't even READ through 1000 words in less than 2 hours, since it takes so long to decipher the meaning. Just imagine how many hours it actually takes to edit. THEN, they expect you to write a report and continue doing more edits. FOR FREE. You know what they charge their clients? $330/1000 words minimum. Check editage.com. Like the other reviewers have mentioned, once you calculate your final wages, it makes zero sense to continue working for Cactus. You end up making about $2/hour, while they pocket HUNDREDS for your time. If you are a native English speaker, let alone have a degree, why would you EVER bother working for them? They're scaring their qualified editors away. I feel bad for their clients. They're probably paying hundreds of dollars an hour to have their work edited by their fellow Indians.
