I signed up for Thumbtack to get some suggestions for professionals to make a wedding cake. Everyone who contacted me seemed like they worked from home (which could be fine, but I wanted a list of bakeries--not risking my wedding cake on a quasibusiness.) Also, none of the people who contacted me gave me any idea on pricing. The bakery I hired did--they had set prices for their baseline cakes. The most irritating thing is, Thumbtack keeps emailing me to see if I hired anyone. I did, but their survey lets you only choose from the people they showed me. There's no "I picked a contractor outside of Thumbtack" option. Won't bother with this again.
