Business Outlook
Pros
The schedule is flexible to say the least, as you're able to cover several different assignments during the week. Plus, you're able to work remotely as a freelancer...in the field, from home, wherever. It's hard to beat that kind of convenience.
Cons
There is a disconnect from the people you write for, because everything is done online, and freelancers don't meet regularly with editors and management. Also, the amount of freelance content has been severely curtailed in the past year, along with pay declining and not being paid on time. My bank account took several serious hits working for Patch, because HQ didn't approve payments on time.
