Pros

I can't think of any at this point.

Cons

After being in the Marketerhire network for 3+ years, I have to say that I really think it's a scam of a business. You don't get matched often, and when you do and start the process, there is 0 communication with MH employees and they just send a template email about it not working out. I had a great interview with a company and received a message back from MH saying that they were looking for a non-remote workplace, and I didn't get the job. Isn't it MH's job to let their companies know all of their freelancers are remote? The business is shady to say the least.

Pros

Client Matching: The platform effectively matched me with a client whose needs and preferences aligned with my expertise, resulting in a fulfilling and productive working relationship. Supportive Management: The XA Managers have been readily available to assist with any questions or issues I encountered, providing valuable guidance and support throughout the project. Timely Payments: I've consistently received my invoices on time, ensuring a reliable and hassle-free payment process.

Cons

Salary Increase Uncertainty: While freelancing offers flexibility, it can also be challenging to negotiate salary increases. I'm unsure if there's a clear process or guidelines for requesting a raise within the MarketerHire platform.

Pros

None. I've gotten zero work from the company.

Cons

If you are a freelancer, don't waste your time with this platform. I was aggressively pursued by their "Talent Acquisition" team to complete my profile and get everything activated. I was promised they had clients waiting with pay averaging $3-7k a month. I had a thorough vetting process with lots of unpaid questions that required detailed answers. I spent 5-6 hours completing everything thrown my way. After "activating" my profile, another outsourced employee gave my profile the green light. Great, right? The work was about to start flowing in! Wrong. It's been 3 months since wasting time on this garbage platform just to get ghosted by every employee I've ever been in contact with. Their acquisition team is clearly incentivized to onboard as many freelancers as possible with ZERO follow-through. Once a freelancer's profile is activated they act as if you don't exist. Big ol' waste of time. If you do decide to onboard with this company, comb through their contract... it's extremely risk heavy on the freelancer's end, requires you to have business insurance, and so much more. Be careful.
