Pros

Patch is a quality site with good writers, solid local content and fairly active readers at least on some Patch sites.

Cons

Unsophisticated sale, tons of bureaucracy and red tape, very competitive sales category and ridiculously high sales goals--at least in our region. You can tell a business owner all day about what a great site it is but if they think advertising on shopping carts is the best then you're not getting his money.

Pros

The money is great if your a self starter and willing to do the work.

Cons

They are not great about moving employees to more permanent positions when the freelance work is done. Even if you are qualified, they still show little to no interest in giving freelance and contractors permanent positions.
