Pros
If your work is good, you get access to higher-paying projects. Some of mine pay $42.50-$45 per hour. The work is interesting, often fun, and you can learn a lot about different topics. You can also specialize in areas in which you have expertise. The work is fully remote and the schedule is 100% flexible. If you test well, there's enough available work that you could work more than 40 hours per week. On the flip side, if you want to work only a couple of hours, or take a few weeks off altogether, there is no penalty. The flexibility that the job provides (not to mention the good compensation) outweighs any cons.
Cons
The compensation is 1099 income, meaning you probably will be paying a lot of it back in self-employment tax.
