Pros

Few, towards the end. Pay was alright but that's about all.

Cons

Way too much drama came down from some vocal staff members. Moderation SOP changed constantly and was a moving target. Site rules were so vague that we would get coached for removing content in one situation because a user whined and coached again when we dismissed a flag with the same content. We're told by Spock one thing, then another by others who moved out of the moderation team to other areas. The staff are all former popular users and longtime friends, which makes untangling who to listen to impossible without stepping on toes. No consistency in leadership. Bring it up to staff and they walk away from the conversation. Never been ghosted by a boss before and that was my cue to cut ties. They're unwilling to take criticism when it's valid. It started after the medialab buyout and was only getting worse when I left. The staff don't care anymore.
