      Pros

      I loved working at Upwork and would recommend as a great place to work. The HR team really cares about benefits.

      Cons

      Upwork is very top heavy and managers get cc'd on all communications which prevent a lot of employee empowerment.

      Pros

      Smart talented people with almost no typical workplace politics. Flexible hours and unlimited PTO make it so you can actually enjoy some time off work. I also really like the company mission and the direction the company is going in after going IPO last year.

      Cons

      Would not mind some better lunch options but they are not bad. because of company growth, it is very busy right now, this is not really a bad thing but it can be stressful.

      Pros

      Upwork was recently named the best place to work in Chicago and it couldn't be more obvious. From the benefits, flexibility, pay - everything is top notch. I plan on staying with the company for a long time. Executives from small start ups to Fortune 100 look to us as advisors on how to modernize their talent strategies. As an account executive 50% of my time is spent speaking with VP and above from some of the largest companies in the world. The culture in the Chicago office feels like a family where everyones voice is heard.

      Cons

      The company is growing fast and change is constant. If you don't like change this would not be the best place for you.
