Pros

Let me say this: I was a writer in the old regime, and I'm a writer in the new regime. The new regime makes all the difference. In the old regime, we were little more than content farmers -- in the new regime, it's a true newsroom, and the pay, views, and environment reflect the positive change. The pay is fair, the newsroom is a true family type environment, and the content has improved tremendously. We are valued, now, where we weren't before. If you get a chance to work here, I suggest you do so.

Cons

The newsroom, like any other newsroom, can get a little noisy. The platform is glitchy sometimes. But there are no real "deal-breaker" cons -- just the standard newsroom pitfalls that every journalist will experience, in a good way.

Pros

Inquisitr is NOT the same company it was 2-3 years ago. Current management has worked hard to turn the site around. I can't say enough good things about the staff, timely weekly pay, and the many tools given to help writers. The site continually strives to do better and the staff makes changes as needed to roll with the times. Inquisitr staff is always on hand for help and it's a real team environment.

Cons

This is not really a con, but there is a quota. It is an easy quota to hit for someone who makes their living as a writer, but could be hard for someone who has a full-time job outside of that.

Pros

Had the ability to write as much as I wanted and was really able to make quite a bit of money per week for this only being a side gig at the time. (Until the company completely flopped)

Cons

All they want you to write about is sexy/bikini/Instagram model clickbait nonsense. No integrity to the writing whatsoever. The managing editor at the time told me I was being let go with no notice whatsoever in the midst of the pandemic. She was then let go herself a short time later. But here's the kicker...the owner of the company then reached out to ME for a favor. The favor: to use a professional connection of mine to help the same person who fired me get another job.
