      Pros

      - An incredible work culture at Upwork. Everyone is friendly, works hard and is collaborative, even in a competitive position. - Team leadership is strong and there is a good hierarchy in place. - Things are moving extremely fast. There are normally 5 new faces in the office every week. - Great perks. Free breakfast and lunch, transportation, work online Wednesday, gym subsidy - Company mission is inspirational and exciting. This is a disruptive company in terms of traditional ways of getting work done.

      Cons

      - There is some mismatch of culture alignment between Bay Area and Chicago which I think should be corrected - Fast growing is great, but need to separate self from others

      Pros

      There are so many things to love about working here... with the new office opening in Chicago, there is a palpable buzz in the office. I love coming here. Visiting San Francisco is also wonderful too. The people are very passionate, mission-driven, smart and talented, and truly care. That comes from the leadership team the people on the front lines.

      Cons

      We are growing fast, and there is a lot of work to be done. Focusing on the right things at the right times is very important as we grow. I don't see any cons here.
