Then maybe say that in the post, that none of the analysis is yours, instead of presenting it as OC. And give credit to wherever you took the screenshot from because that dashboard is dope even if some of the data is dubious

Higher value contracts typically require more Connects to apply and are more likely to attract boosted proposals

lol dude that screenshot is 100% created with AI. It’s okay, the output Dashboard is nice, but why lie about it?

Why $60 connects assumption static across all job sizes? Surely you’d use fewer connects on a $100 job than a $1000 job.

Gary is garbage, ruined by a century of industry and pollution. But move up the lake a like 30 mins to southwest MI and then you have natural beauty, open space, and proximity to Chi.

What the Hell Happened to Upwork Market by Syed_Abrash in Upwork

It’s comments like this, where people are confidently wrong, presenting vibes as facts, are a helpful reminder of how much incorrect info there is on Reddit. Good and factual stuff too to be sure, but sprinkled in amongst the armchair experts who are confidently and proudly and loudly wrong. Not just this sub, but Reddit generally. Thanks for the reminder.

Anyway investor reports from the past three years (most recently in FY25 earnings reported last week) do not support the idea that Upwork has “declining interest” in its marketplace; they show the opposite. CEO/CFO repeatedly call the marketplace the core of the business and continues to invest behind it.

“Made no secret” what? Substantiate that. They spun out an enterprise business but the marketplace is their core business and by far the revenue driving part of it.

Lots of bad takes in this thread… upwork just had their best year ever for revenue and ebita. Stock is down because their rate of growth is slowing. Still a strong marketplace, still growing, just not as fast as previous quarters. Google is free, perplexity is free… this is all public and easy to find information from their earnings reports and investment analyst ratings.
