Pros

Completely flexible and remote, you set your own rates.

Cons

Payments don't start coming in until 27 days after you start a contract which is extremely annoying. After they come, you have to transfer them using ach which costs 50 cents and takes two days, because for some reason they always pay on friday. If you want your money immediately, you have to use a 10 dollar wire transfer.

Pros

There are some great people who work here. And the fully remote environment does provide good flexibility in work/life.

Cons

Terrible C-suite leadership. Many people have pointed out the CEO so I won't say much except to agree with those comments. I will add the Chief People Officer to this list. She is extremely sexist and nepotism is huge with anything she is involved in. Not someone you could ever depend on to treat anything impartially or fairly. They used to have good benefits, but I've been told most of those have been removed since I last worked there.
