Pros
flexible hours, lots of projects available
Cons
They pay well below the going rate for copyediting, and expect absolute accuracy and a high level of decision making that should be the responsibility of the original author. The pay works out to about $0.03 per word, and the deadlines are often too short. Copy editors are expected to deliver right on time, but senior editors often do not send the materials by the date promised, so deadlines are even shorter than stated.
