Pros
Maybe a bonus?Update: It originally said the bonus would be 0 to 20 cents. Got an email within a few hours saying they were made aware of technical difficulties with their chat platform and giving a higher bonus of 50 cents. Not sure if the technical difficulties relate to the wait times I mentioned, I didn't notice any issues.
Cons
Maybe not a bonus. Either it wasn't specified or I missed it in the debrief. Either way the pay is only fair, you have to sit on the chat page until it expires regardless of how quickly you and your partner are done chatting (took us like a minute, then 4 minutes of waiting).Update: Higher bonus brings the pay up to generous, but don't count on it.

Pros
Took much less time to complete than expected, resulting in a generou pay rating. Super simple and straightforward scales.I screwed up the copy/paste for the survey code and contacted the requester about it. They were quick to respond and assure me it was approved. Excellent communicativeness.
Cons
I didn't see any notification the HIT was posted via email reminder and had to double-check I'd done the previous HIT in the study to make sure I was able to do this one.Charlie Turksalot Relaxed Pace

Pros
Last of a series of biweekly surveys, mostly the same each time, over a two-year period.Pretty straightforward questions.
Cons
Each survey was a dollar instantly and a dollar as bonus. I guess there was a reason for this but two bucks all at once would have been nice.
