Pros

- Some pay is much better than average and balance out some of the lower-paying articles. - The automotive content managers are awesome and very fair. - Steady flow of work. - Involve senior-level freelancers in any prospective changes to the system or formatting. - Great transparency for freelancers. - Open to suggestions from freelancers - Pay is like clockwork

Cons

- Some articles pay as little as 5 cents per word, but this is rare. - Occasional dry spells, particularly around holidays. - Some deadlines are very tight. - Bi-weekly pay can be annoying at times (would prefer weekly).

Pros

The editors actually edit instead of sending silly edit requests; the people are so friendly and happy to talk with you; payroll is regular and bi-weekly; direct deposit, so no need to mess with PayPal and its fees and transfer times; excellent pay on most articles; and easy writer interface to work with.

Cons

Some articles are lower paying; there are sometimes lulls in available work; payroll issues are slow to be resolved at times; and you cannot select your own topics, they assign them to you.
