Client found me on upwork but wants to hire me outside of upwork through their company. I am new to Upwork but I believe this is against policy, right? I absolutely do not want to break the rules! Can someone confirm this is against poilcy? Any suggestions on how to proceed? Thanks.

Yes, it is against the rules. If they want to hire you as an employee rather than a freelancer, they will need to go through Upwork Payroll services.

I agree.
There are only two paths forward for the client.
The client hires you using a valid Upwork contract.
If the client doesn't do that, then you report the client. Use the "Flag as inappropriate" link in the top right hand corner of the job posting page.
