Pros

Fun article ideas and the opportunity to pitch and research your own content. Flexible hours, perfect for freelancers or anyone looking for part-time.

Cons

Just okay pay-rate. Sometimes given very similar article assignments, so must find a way to work the same subject from multiple angles.
