I'm not all that experienced, but from the time I've spent in these games, it's mostly mindless play, at least at the lowest stakes. The right play is even more tight/aggressive, so it's really easy to have one of these games going on in the background, playing for a few pots and then coasting to an easy finish.
I definitely wouldn't recommend trying to make all of your money on these tables, but I think it is probably a good way for a beginner to multi-table and bring in a little extra without diverting too much attention from the one or two games that they are used to playing.
At least on PokerStars, in the $1+.15 ones, placing in just 6/10 should be easily attainable and is just above the breakeven point. With some experience, 7/10 or 8/10 isn't out of reach. 7.5/10 represents a 30% ROI, so it's not all that bad. It certainly is tedious play, though, so unless you are running like 6 of these at once, I definitely recommend playing a different style at the same time.
