Pros

There was a lot of flexibility and some great titles to work with, competitive hourly rates for a freelancer. Working during fashion week/month kept me busy and allowed me to learn how Hearst Digital works.

Cons

Didn't like how the digital photo department ran. Few titles had dedicated photo editors for the site and they were often in separate locations with little or no creative communication.
