Like Fiverr this site is basically worthless. People in 3rd world countries with a very low cost of living can afford to charge pennies compared to designers in the USA. So that means they get all the jobs. Don't waste your time.

If you live in the US, this site is basically completely worthless. In a nutshell, people in 3rd World countries use it to provide services for a fraction of the cost that people in the US charge because their cost of living and exchange rate is so much cheaper. So it is literally impossible to get work if you live in the US. Fiverr also deactivates your account if you don't manage to get work anyway. Do not waste your time.

Companies are hiring freelancers overseas now to write fake positive reviews. They are staying within Glassdoor's "rules" and using different IP Addresses and spacing out the reviews so it's not as suspicious. Unfortunately Glassdoor doesn't seem to be catching these reviews or deleting them so it's skewing companies to look better than they actually deserve / are. Anyone with half a brain can see these reviews are fake b/c the English is poor and they are very short but they help inflate the companies overall rating. Beware.

If you want to hear about pathetic grown men whining about cars driving too fast over the speed limit, people not cleaning up dog poop, coyotes, and other nightmares of suburban America then sign up.

You could give them a $100 tip and the dasher will drive 20 miles in the opposite direction to deliver 3 orders that get dropped off before yours. You will still be waiting over an hour to get your food delivered. When you call customer service to complain, the Asian lady will only refund you $10.

This place is like an online flea market. There are so many people on the site it is impossible to get any traction and the algorithm will never allow you to get any sales.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. THE INTERNET UNEXPECTEDLY WENT OUT FOR MULTIPLE DAYS DUE TO A "SERVICE OUTAGE." NO WARNING, NO HEADS UP AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO GET THE INTERNET BACK UP QUICKLY. THIS IS INEXCUSABLE FOR PAYING CUSTOMERS AND THEY ARE VERY UNRELIABLE. I REPEAT, DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!

Unfortunately if you aren't on Linkedin you will be judged - unfairly. I've applied for jobs only to have the hiring manager ask me why I'm not on Linkedin like it's some sort of professional sin. Most of the people on the site are egotistical narcissists who can't stop ranting and raving about how successful and talented they are. And the old line don't compare yourself to others? Well that is exactly the point of Linkedin, hell that is point of all social media and basically what is wrong with our world today.

If you are a business trying to grow it's basically impossible at this point. The site is oversaturated and there are too many people on the site and the algorithm keeps changing. I've been posting for a month and just getting above 80 real followers is basically impossible. Don't waste your time.

Don't bother. Behance is a waste of time and impossible to get views unless you are featured or have been on the site for 10 years already and are in the top 1%.

Everything on here is racist, offensive, ignorant or just stupid. It's like reading the writing on the bathroom wall from a 50 year old living in their mom's basement. I feel dumber just having gone to the website.

This site is maybe the most toxic site on the Internet. Part of it is the fact that everyone is anonymous and part of it is the majority of users are young, dumb, immature, angry and lost in the world. People will literally attack you for asking an innocent question. The level of toxicity and anger is unbelievable. The subs are like the writing on the bathroom wall and everyone pretends to be pseudo-smart but no one actually has any clue what they are really talking about. They are all lost and confused and searching for the meaning of life by asking other lost and confused individuals to agree with them to reinforce their false beliefs. Also the behavior is very reminiscent of middle school and high school kids where they will bully and belittle others. Very sad. Do not waste your time for you own mental health.
