Pros

Didn't really find any pros

Kontras

Their sample process has you edit at typically subpar levels in order to entice clients, disguising themselves as cheap. As a professional published scientist, it was extremely difficult to do all their lower forms of sample edits (1000 words each) for $3.50 and 80% do not even turn into actual orders, where the pay is also subpar. I spent 4 days editing 'samples' and had to do them over and over because my greeting comment or closing comment wasn't in a 'bubble' and I need to address the client's reference help request, but was chastised that that meant citation formating. After 4 days of BS and a lot of time. I made $10 and had no orders. They said my editing was excellent, but their 'sample process' was apparantly more important. Sorry. I don't work for free.

Pros

I get recognition as an elite, experienced editor with one of the longest-standing online editing companies. The company provided additional editorial training, and I achieved certification as a developmental editor. Best of all, I am supported by client account managers who provide answer calls for customer service, so I get to focus on just editing.

Kontras

Providing samples for clients requires that I have to prove myself again and again as an editor. (I get a bonus for this work, but it is honestly not huge financially.) Also, I work online which can be lonely.

Pros

Ability to work remotely and low bar for entry

Kontras

Editors receive a minority of what clients pay, which brings the hourly rate down near minimum wage unless editors rush through projects and deliver subpar work.
