For beginners, good place to start; supplemental income only

Business outlook

Pros

Flexible work times; choose jobs at your convenience. Good place to begin if you're inexperienced. Good support staff and community. Bonus-based work with mostly considered feedback.

Cons

Low pay, especially at beginning. A glut of new workers can mean little to no work available for long stretches of time. The same can be said for higher paying jobs. It's feast or famine, but most of free-lance work is anyway. Editing pay too low. One grader in particular can be difficult to please, perhaps due to the volume of work he takes on.
