Upwork User Ratings
In general, is good
In general, it’s a great place to start. It’s handy and for a beginner is a good opportunity. The downside is that it’s difficult to find long-term projects.
Competitive!
I think this is a great service, but it was a bit hard to find a job sometimes, due to how popular it is! This is a great place to look for a multiple – project job. It may take time to find this, but it is worth it!
Pros and Cons
Its easy to set up an account and find work on Upwork, but it can be frustrating to use to find long-term sustainable income as a freelancer. The balance of power mainly lies with clients and the platform does not do a lot to correct this, and if you tend to have shorter gigs the 20% fee from each one can get to be a pain.
