      Pros

      -Talented, creative employees -Still some creative freedom

      Cons

      -Most of the employees are super talented, both on editorial and video side, but management blocks a lot of great content, and forces you to put out clickbait and/or tone deaf content. -While Elite Daily's audience AND staff is majority female, the couple bros in charge are sad their fraternity is falling a part and have a hard time listening to the women there. -Management scared for their own jobs, so they're not looking out for anyone else but themselves. -Daily mail is making Elite Daily it's mini me - obsessed with views, clicks but absolutely no strategy or direction. -The place has NO voice. - Salaries are anywhere from $30,000 to 6-figures. All over the place.

      Pros

      Working remote 2 days a week was nice.

      Cons

      Pay. Promised bonuses that never happened. Promised pay raises that never came. Toxic environment. Co workers are all disgruntled. Company is growing too fast to management to handle.

      Pros

      I definitely learned a lot working for Elite Daily when it comes to writing catchy headlines and understanding SEO. I've taken a lot of that knowledge with me throughout my career. It's also pretty flexible schedule-wise, unless your editor is a micromanager and you're an extremely slow writer.

      Cons

      They just don't care about their writers, tbh. When I started writing for them, they offered me $15/hour. By the time I quit 5 years later, I was making $20/hour, which is still not a living wage. Oh, and they ask for 2+ years writing/SEO experience before you're even hired. They also ask their writers to work JUST below full-time, which means you're working quite a bit but you have no security or benefits. They have a culture in which writers are excluded from the editorial process, which is not how all websites are run. Don't ever expect to get promoted to being an editor either, they won't even offer you a path to promotion. If you're a part-time writer at ED, you'll likely never be more than that.
