Is being a gig worker worth all the cons mentioned? or do you still find being a traditional employee more appealing?
It depends on the person, some people feel that having a permanent job with a monthly salary is better, but there are also people who feel that being a freelancer is better, because you don't need to be tied to a contract and you can be flexible to determine your working hours. I myself see both as having their own advantages and disadvantages, but if it's in line with my current condition of having several responsibilities, I feel that having a permanent job makes more sense, because I can get a salary every month, I can get health insurance and pension funds from the company, and there is a contract, so there is a guarantee that I can still get a salary for living. But that's not to say that freelancing is bad, it's just a matter of circumstance, and if I have the opportunity to have both, I'd prefer it to be that way, because having multiple sources of income is much better than just relying on a monthly salary.
