Avoid this place, at all costs - Content Writer bei Screen Rant: Mitarbeiterbewertung

I love games, which is why I wanted to try to monetize said love, but GameRant really does all it can to make the process like scratching nails on a chalkboard. Don't even get me started on what they want you to do in WordPress. As a writer, you're basically the editor. You're taught how to write one way during recruitment, but their actual style is different and requires you to dump even more time filling out fields and forms and everything that you begin to wonder: What are the editors actually doing? Nothing. Playing video games and nothing. The workplace isn't diverse. The entire editorial team is white, and their push for diversity is transparent and only motivated by their website's poor metric performance with minorities after their blunders in the past (Chadwick Boseman, but we're getting there later.) If you can produce your own content for your own blog, it's better than slinking to GameRant's standards. They require you to link 9 times to articles from websites that they own in order to maximize ad profit (and you receive a paltry $10 for your 2-3 hours of work!). The editors are a joke and don't actually do anything but steal topics from other websites, all while refusing to attribute any sourcing to them (except for ONE word at the VERY end, big whoop!) Look how much respect this organization has for the people who create the art that they create "content" about. Google "ScreenRant Apologizes for Publication of Speculative Black Panther 2 Article Just Hours After the Passing of Star Chadwick Boseman." Or if that title basically already told you what they're about, save yourself a search. They used a Boseman's death for clickbait on the next Disney/Marvel movie, and unironically, I know someone who got fired in the middle of their discussion for bereavement to grieve a loved one. But the Boseman article and their treatment of writers shows a larger problem for these websites. The editors come up with these kinds of stories constantly. The writer probably just picked the Boseman topic, or any other bad article, because some editor threw it into an Asana task and called it a day. They lack knowledge of the gaming industry. They even have a note on each Asana task that pretty much says, "The editor probably doesn't know anything about this topic, so basically you'll be editing it." Those are the kind of things that happen working here. It's an article mill that constantly churns out whatever with no concern for its writers or the people whom it gets its content from, as long as whatever they have has ads and nine internal links within it. Most writers quit after recruitment. If you need a published writing credit badly, I'd suggest getting a few bylines and getting out shortly after. Very. Shortly. After.
