Ventajas
Work on your own schedule, be able to come and go as you please, assigned a job and just have to have it done by the due date, more physically demanding than mentally, I listen to podcasts while I work, going to work is more of a break from being a stay at home mom than an actual job. Eventually you are paid per scan instead of hourly. So you aren't "punished" for getting faster by making less for taking less time to complete tasks
Desventajas
I saw one person say "you are left to your own devices, for better or for worse". There are times when given new assignments when you aren't quite sure what you are doing and you kinda just have to figure it out and hope for the best. It can be nerve wracking. You HAVE to be a self motivator/starter/etc. my friend who told me about this job barely lasted a month because no one was there making her do the work, so she just wouldn't. This isn't an issue for me, but if you aren't able to make you do things even if no one else is making you, this job will be hard for you to complete.
