What are sales commissions like at Upwork?

You can work on your own terms, make yourself stand out.

10% commission is too much

Solid commission structure, great coworkers

High pressure. They do not properly educate on your goals in the first 90 days. The goal kept changing, and they act like this was the goal all along.

Great way to connect with clients.

The commission rate has recently increased significantly.

The only pro: Being remote

- Annual layoffs - Company hasn't been innovative since they created the original product - The base salary is only competitive because it's difficult to make commission (nobody needs the product anymore) - Managers will freeze your "unlimited PTO" - The CEO wrote a tone deaf LinkedIn post the day after laying off dozens of people saying what a "profitable and successful year" it had been

Very easy to find clients based on your occupation
