The Slash Workers survey results
Meet the Slash Workers!
A couple months ago, AND CO launched a survey with freelancers and other independent workers to get inside their minds so we could better understand what challenges and inspires them and what makes them tick. And here are the results:

Some interesting findings:
"we found that 95 percent the freelancers we surveyed sell multiple skills within their careers (e.g. “Designer / Coder / Event Planner”). Meet the Slash Workers, whose talents are multifaceted and wide-ranging, represent the newest breed in today’s gig economy"
"Just 6 percent of survey respondents indicated they were freelancing until a full-time gig came along. Another 41 percent told us they intend freelance forever."
"The #1 reason freelancers from this study went independent was for personal growth"
"Male respondents were 4.5x more likely to earn more than $150,000+ a year than female respondents, but more men said they had been stiffed by a client."
