      What is the hiring process like at Upwork?

      Upwork reviews

      good place for work

      Data analyst
      Current contractor
      Bengaluru
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      I had a great experience. The service was excellent, the staff was friendly and professional, and everything exceeded my expectations. The quality was outstanding, and I would definitely recommend this to others. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

      Cons

      The remote is easy to use, responsive, and works as expected. Setup was simple, and the button layout is intuitive. While there are a few minor drawbacks, it offers good

      Very poor leadership

      Business outlook

      Pros

      - completely remote - quite good salary compared to many countries

      Cons

      - Extremely bad management. Since entering the market and since having new CEO, it feels like high management is too optimistic. And not connected to reality. As if they were paid to sell us something. And as staff I am not I want to understanding reality. It is just waste of time to always listen to dreams. - Leaders continually change past bad decisions but replacing them with similar ones. - The work in teams is quite unstable as the plans and strategies change. One month the team may work perfectly, another month people can be scattered to 3 different teams having to learn all again. To fix new teams. While breaking totally what was important in the original team. - I don’t feel at all the management takes important long-term issues seriously. One can warn about the issues. But in the end such warnings get ignored. What works gradually becomes broken. - There is not enough people for important technical work. But there is always enough people to generate plenty of useless meetings, messages and fun activities. The management seems to have unhealthy hiring priorities.

      Good Remote Work But Bad Leadership With No Accountability

      Business outlook

      Pros

      -Fully Remote -High Visibility To Leadership -Open Vacation Days -Opportunity To Make Real Impact And Create Change -Empowered To Own As Many Projects As You Can Handle -New Hire Stipend To Set Up Home Office

      Cons

      -No Process Of Workflow Whatsoever Due To High Turnover -Poor Communication. No One Knows What They're Doing Or What Other Cross-Functional Teams Do. Teams Are Very Siloed -The Leadership Team Has No Clear Direction. They Don't Share Information With Org And Are Very Secretive With The Future Of The Company Causing There To Be Bad Morale Across The Board -The Upwork SaaS Product Is Bad. Employees And Customers Don't Understand What Upwork Offers Because They're Always Shifting The Company Focus Which Keeps The Brand Reputation Poor and Unknown -The Marketing Leadership Team Restructured At Least Three Times In One Year And Pushed Out Really Good Employees Just To Replace Them With Worse Leads -No Room For Internal Growth. The Title You're Hired At Will Likely Be Your Title Until You Leave The Company
