No loyalty, no incentives -- bad place to work - Editor bei EditorLive: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Working from home Interesting articles to edit Easy-to-use interface to grab jobs (basically, you clock in on a website and then grab jobs to edit from a queue on the company's website) Supportive management and fun coworkers Easy to track your daily word count and commission If you can get on a shift that works for you, then you will likely have time to earn income from a second gig or freelance work.

Some jobs, by their nature, are boring. For me, papers on algorithms, organizational management, education/teacher training, and nursing are very boring. Some of our clients produce heavy ESL writing, which combined with a boring paper topic, can be a grind. Like any distribution, the documents tend to cluster around average difficulty, so it's not too bad.

A consistently large number of documents to edit.

During the course of the past year, management and one senior editor who seems to have been placed in a management position made working at the company more and more unpleasant. Perhaps this was done intentionally. Pay is stagnant and an icy atmosphere prevails. Advice and suggestions from editors, even those who have worked for the company for many years, are summarily dismissed. At the beginning of July, a confusing, poorly-written email was sent to many of the editors indicating something about their editing shifts no longer being available. The gist of the email, which required much discussion among the now-dismissed editors to decipher, was that management had decided to hire in-house employees in order to comply with the requirements of an SBA loan. This is understandable. Unfortunately, instead of giving long-time editors an opportunity to find other employment, they were effectively laid off on the spot! Very unprofessional way of handling the situation. Such a shame, as many of the editors who lost their editing shifts had been with the company, through thick and thin, for years.
