Pluspunten

Paid weekly, friendly social environment in which we communicated via Slack, freelancers got to choose article topics according to niches

Minpunten

After the managing editor who hired me and many others and who contributed to the company's significant growth left, the company changed, and communication with freelancers declined. The company went two managing editors in less than a year following the previous one's departure, and numerous freelance writers were abruptly let go in 2022 because the company and management wanted to "downsize" operations.

Pluspunten

You get some experience writing various works for online publication.

Minpunten

The biggest con is that the communication style of the leads, whether you're on the content editing side or the writing side, is not great. There is no room to ask questions. There is no room to develop. There is no room to make mistakes and there is poor training for all aspects of this job, so whenever you do make a mistake, it's made out to be entirely your fault. The remote monitoring system is terrible, as it screenshots your screen every 2-3 minutes to ensure that you are constantly working for your entire shift. You feel under surveillance from start to finish. Another con is that the articles you put your sweat and research and tears into don't actually matter. I cannot find a single thing that I wrote published online or otherwise, making my portfolio featuring these articles worthless because most jobs want proven, published work for a portfolio. This job tries to fill you with "confidence" just to knock you down and remind you you don't actually matter.
