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

1. Interesting mix of responsibilities 2. Close collaboration between the engineering, analytics, and marketing teams 3. I’ve gotten much better at working with data infrastructure 4. Managers give my team a lot of freedom to build systems rather than just maintain existing dashboards.

Cons

A bit of a learning curve at the beginning. I had to improve my communication skills to interact effectively with stakeholders.

Easy and simple work with no real training required.

Cons

- There is absolutely no guidance from management - Leadership is poor and support is completely nonexistent - Employees are left entirely on their own with no direction - Salary is extremely low - There is no realistic expectation of any salary increase - There is no growth, no progress, and no real future in the role - The job feels like a complete dead end

Thank you for your feedback. Matchmaking is often romanticized, but the truth is it's hard work. We strive to paint a very accurate picture during the interview process of the goals, time commitment, and effort required to be successful in this role. It's not for everyone, but it can be very rewarding and we feel grateful to our clients to support them on their journey. Thank you for your service and we wish you well in your future endeavors.
