Cons
It may be difficult to consider these "cons" given their reasoning is understandable, but in my experience, the few cons would be: Sporadic/inconsistent schedule as a freelancer (understandable given editorial is all on a per-project basis with each having their own unique schedules) Working on CST or EST can be exhausting when work is delivered and due in line with Pacific Standard Time (again, understandable given the studio is based out of Burbank, California and they're kind enough to hire remote talent across the U.S). It's not uncommon for me to receive editorial between the hours of 3:00 P.M. - as last as 8:30 P.M. with a next-day due date. Freelancers aren't afforded any form of direct deposit and must await physical checks which can sometimes be as late as month behind.
