One of the best to work - Avis employé Snr Product manager ProWritingAid

After years of being overworked, underpaid, and under-appreciated, I made the leap to go fully remote and work as a full-time contractor for ProWritingAid in 2020. It was the best decision I could've made for my career, my family, and my overall well-being. They're a genuinely amazing company to work for. They've mastered the true remote culture, with employees in multiple time zones and continents. Communication, transparency, and trust are top-tier. The flexibility allows for a fantastic work-life balance, especially when managing familial responsibilities. I haven't had a case of the "Sunday Scaries" since joining this company, which is a true testament to the type of employer they are. I couldn't recommend them more.

As a US-based employee, figuring out benefits and shifting gears with paying quarterly estimated taxes will be the biggest hurdle. I'm privileged to be covered by my spouse's health insurance, so that hasn't been an issue for me. However, with the ever-rising cost of healthcare in the US, that can be a detractor for others.

- Allow a lot of flexibility with work, being a remote-only company - Great people. Everyone is collaborative and friendly. - Fulfilling work. People really care about helping creative writers, and there are thoughtful discussions about what would be helpful vs intrusive.

Not many! - As with small tech companies, there is quite a lot of pivoting/changing direction, that may not be suited to everyone. - There's lots of trust/autonomy given, which is a good thing, but not much formalized training/heavy direction, so may be less suitable if it's your first job.
