Pros

- Management is very good at communicating with its employees. They always respond to emails, texts, or pings in a timely fashion. - Payment is always on time - Compared to the nature of the work, pay is competitive - Variety of projects to work on once you gain experience - People friendly environment, relaxed atmosphere - Scheduling and hours are flexible, as long as you put in 40hrs/week. Can work around family / personal matters

Cons

- No company is perfect, but if there was incentives in the forms of pay increases, or better chances of conversion to FTE, I think long-term retention would be increased.

Pros

Fully work from home job

Cons

Work-life-balance (the way tasks availability works makes it so that you have to stay home most of the day to get hours) Pay (the pay is not competitive at all) Poor management (little to no communication and frequently overhiring, which adds to the lack of available work) Benefits (benefits are only available if you work a certain amount of hours per year, even if they do not have tasks available frequently) Vacation time (vacation time is awarded similarly to the way benefits work. Therefore your vacations are lessened by when task availability decreases) Lack of clarity (company stages meetings under the guise of transparency, but do not address worker concerns, up to and including concerns over lack of work) Mass layoffs (company does mass layoffs frequently, sending out termination emails to multiple employees at once periodically, which adds to general stress and uncertainty about job stability)
