Bad rates for a job that requires detailed APA/MLA editing, adherence to journal style guides and correcting English of ESL authors discussing scientific/medical topics. The rates are set to be appropriate for manuscripts that need only a light proofread (i.e., it's assumed you can get through 10 pages an hour, and the base rate is $17 per 10 pages) but the articles need a HEAVY language edit and extensive redo of Works Cited pages that have been done in the wrong format. Their journals accept articles that aren't ready for final proofread and should be sent back to the author for language edits before being accepted.

The people they have liaising with the freelance editors aren't very professional or good communicators. You can sign up with them and may get a semi-steady supply of work, but the pay isn't competitive with what a similarly skilled editor could get elsewhere and doesn't increase with time/experience.

Great place to work for a handful of years if you need an office job for your resume but the demands of the job are too high for what it’s paid (same for—if not more so—the project management positions). Paid by the number of hours you clock into a job so if there’s a week where there’s not a lot of work you may be sent home early without pay (sometimes multiple daytimes a week). Coworkers are great but it’s not enough for a job that won’t cover your bills (especially during the slow times).

family run business with international resources. expanding into various fields within the publishing business. requires resourceful, intelligent people as employees. deadline driven work.

I worked for Graphic World for many years and did so because I liked the people a lot. However, as a freelance copyeditor, I was being paid  50% or less of what ALL other companies pay.  They pay $17.50 an hour and that is for at least 10 pages. Other companies pay $3.50 to $6.00 per page.

The rate paid for editing is incredibly low for the industry. They ask for 10 pages an hour to edit academic work. For that type of content, 3 or 4 pages an hour is more the norm. No one can do a real copyedit at that rate for what they pay. Trying to turn editing into assembly line work.

Due to market realities, company is forced to compete on price. It is more of an industry problem than a Graphic World problem. This being said, ownership and management do well in creating a good work environment. Very open, fair, and considerate.
