Pros

You have the option to take on questions you are generally interested in, providing they have enough readily available.

Cons

I've been with Wonder for more than a year now. One of the reasons I don't often take on work there is the process is continually changing. I can't even imagine how much time and money is wasted continually retooling productivity and streamlining for efficiency. That might sound great to you, but things change so much that you can't get used to doing things one way. Now everything is broken down on such a granular level that it doesn't seem like you are actually doing research at all. Maybe this is because instead of paying the best researchers full time or even part time it's cheaper to crowdsourcing literally everything. Maybe that's why they are continually hiring, usually with a different job title for the same job. I learned more about research from this work, but ultimately it seems too unstable to continue with much longer.

Thanks for the feedback. To be clear, the reason we rolled out the recent upgrades wasn't to save money - the changes have actually allowed us to increase how much we pay researchers, and make the research process easier. By allowing researchers to specialize in whichever parts of the research process they like most (writing, editing, reviewing, etc.), researchers end up earning more money using the focused skill sets they enjoy. And the reason we're continually growing the Wonder research community is because our client base is growing and we get more and more research requests each week! I'd be happy to walk through some of the recent platform upgrades with you and help get you ramped up. Just drop me an email! --> research@askwonder.com

Pros

Once you get approved, you can work right away. It is a good option for working at home, or working part-time. It is also flexible, so you can work while you travel. Their management and community are very helpful. They have set up a useful resource network to help you through the job. It is always interesting.

Cons

Maybe it's just me, but a lot of time has to be invested in each project; and you get paid by project, so I don't really see this as becoming a full-time job. The job itself can also be complicated and it definitely is not for everyone, you have to really like researching and have writing skills.
