"I worked for Upwork and used its platform for the past 9 years. The platform is solid once you get the hang of it. As a recruiter, freelancer rates are higher on UW and most of the time it's worth it."

"I work for myself on UpWork.com and have mixed feelings about using the medium as a freelance writer. It's difficult to find loyal clients and also a bit discouraging that you have to pay for credits to apply for certain jobs. I like the flexibility it offers and the money regulation in the app so that payments are guaranteed to be secure."
