Outlier is life changing for me, I have a lot more peace and I can work from anywhere whenever I want. I now have time for myself and hobbies without being tired. I could plan to go on a trip and work a couple of hours per day.

The flexibility is amazing. I have a small child, so being able to log in at night when everything is quiet makes a huge difference. It gives me the freedom to balance work and life in a way that a regular job wouldn’t.

The work itself is fun. I'm learning about such a broad variety of topics because every time you see a task, you learn something new. I just learned some cool Swiss recipes for apple fritters.
