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
