Pros

Maintain full autonomy and decision making. Higher hourly salary (gross) than working for a company.

Cons

Responsible for marketing, office leases, technology, extra associated costs, more complicated taxes, ups and downs of the market... not currently stable, and private equity is crushing private practice with the online platforms. They currently pay what was once UCR over 20 years ago.
