Pros

Work from home, flexible hours, bonuses, positive team leads, and fun coworkers. Clients are good when they're good.

Cons

Toxic management, rude clients, unrealistic standards, shady business practices, and unclear workflow processes. Clients are oversold on what Tawkify can do for them and the Matchmakers and Customer Success bear the brunt of trying to create matches out of thin air. We were all 1099 contractors until Feb 2023 and abruptly shifted into W-2 Employees in a disjointed and unprofessional manner that felt like a last minute choice from higher ups to avoid lawsuits or something else we won't know. Those who signed employment contracts in January 2023 were told once Employment began in February that the work done as a contractor would be paid out under the employment pay scale. I feel this was highly illegal and can not understand how Tawkify got away with that. It's been evident that this was an expensive business move and package prices were raised and now Staff and Clients are suffering as a result. Top performers were demotivated and pushed out. Long standing matchmakers and support team members abruptly let go with no warning yet citing, "low performance"

Pros

Amazing team, and great clients but service is sub par

Cons

Tawkify was a great company to work for, but about two years ago the business began shifting toward a more scaled and outsourced operating model. Key functions such as screening and date coordination were moved offshore, and matchmaker caseloads increased from roughly 20–25 clients to more than 80 clients each. Unfortunately, that was not the experience I originally signed up for. The focus seemed to shift from personalized matchmaking to a high-volume, production-oriented model. In my opinion, the quality of service declined as matchmakers were expected to manage significantly more clients with fewer resources and less individualized attention. As a result, many of the company's strongest and most experienced matchmakers chose to leave. While the company may have improved operational efficiency, I believe the client experience and overall quality of matchmaking suffered, making it difficult to justify the premium price point.
