Pluspunten

Upwork's mission (To create economic opportunities so people have better lives) was great if it followed properly! The work environment was nice before.

Minpunten

Middle-tier management layer in Chicago needs a complete revamp. Top people are leaving the company due to stifling/suffocating work environment. The mid-level managers in Sales and Finance are looking for yes persons. They are hiring and promoting people not based on merit but on loyalty. Healthy disagreements and logical discussions are shut down and counted against you.

Pluspunten

Pay and benefits were pretty good. Only reason I stayed.

Minpunten

Chaotic leadership. People are constantly busy doing things that don't matter as there is no clear understanding of what the strategy is or what success looks like.
