Work hours are not set on shifts, but flexible, allowing you to complete jobs when you have time for them.
After a training period, pay is determined by the amount of work done, not time, meaning you can get paid at an effective hourly rate that is quite high if you are efficient.
Cons
Remote work with relatively strained communication between employees, so no relationship with the people you work with.
The number of jobs available may be limited, so you are not always able to get more work if you want more pay.

The Research Associate job is very flexible and also autonomous.
Flexible, easy to learn the basics and complete self-paced training, and a good option for side income that can work around a main job or busy life. They have a help line to call for trouble with jobs and questions. If you have to leave a voicemail, they are usually pretty good about calling back fairly quickly.
Cons
Sometimes you have to figure out how to do certain jobs on the fly if you haven't done them before, so it can feel a bit like being tossed in and expected to sink or swim. They do have a help line to call if you have trouble figuring it out, though.
