Pros

The editors are really nice and helpful. Communication is done virtually via Slack and even though it's remote there's a good team collaboration.

Cons

Strategies change often, you might get comfortable writing one topic but then it stops performing so need to always be ideating fresh ideas (this could also be a positive, depending on your perspective).

Pros

You get bylines and actual published work

Cons

Terrible pay at a toxic place that has been called "slave labor" in a report by The Wrap. Movieweb and their company (that owns a ton of websites, so also collider, screenrant, and cbr) are run by ignorant people who don't know what they're doing. They expect an unrealistic amount of work in exchange for awful pay, and treat you terribly as well. It's a nasty factory assembly line designed to create clickbait for the lowest denominator of people.
