Customer service is dishonest and not… Customer service is dishonest and not trustworthy. I tried to complain about the fake jobs posted on their platform. I just got blamed for responding to the fake jobs (when I did not know a lot of the posting their are fake. Then I told the that nonpaid clients should not be able to contact applicants.

Complete waste of time and money A complete waste of time and money. Their pro membership gives you more connects, but it doesn't help you get work. When you're starting from scratch its literally impossible to get work without any reviews. You can be the most talented, experienced professional in your field but you'll lose out to a cheap off-shore solution. I've spent hundred of dollars on membership, sending proposals, cutting costs to the point of it not even being worth it, and still no interest.

Upwork is nest of scammers The freelance site upwork.com is a joke; it's absolutely full of scammers. It seems that anyone from India, Pakistan, or other places with just a device can call themselves a full-stack developer. They promise you everything, but in the end, they are at most, at best, high school graduates who happen to have a computer. Do NOT, I repeat, let yourself be scammed like I was for thousands of US dollars. Contacting Upwork is not possible, and if you complain about a freelancer and give them one or two stars, they can also rate the client with a star. Do you understand that? I will advise everybody to stay away from it

Poor success rate I’ve used the site 4 times and only once have I received what was paid for. Full of untrustworthy freelancers who just do not deliver on tasks.

Not recommend to anyone Not recommend to anyone, nor freelancer neither clients. Was the best freelance platform. Now it's the worst. - Average bid cost is about 3$ while average project cost is 10$. - About 85% of projects posted are fake. - Service fee is 2 times larger than it was year ago. - Awful support (looks like it doesn't exist at all). - Scammers scammers scammers. Extremely greedy company who ruins their business themselves.
