Pros

- The people that work there are generally smart and nice people - Remote work is a huge benefit

Cons

Where to start.... - Lots of turnover in executive ranks. - No salaries increases for the past 2 1/2 years, including no salary adjustments for promotions and no cost of living increases. - Continuous layoffs; cut another 30-40% of employees in October - CEO has a terrible management style (aggressive and confrontational) and is very emotional - you can be in favor and then lose favor quickly, and then you're gone. - No coherent growth strategy - CEO has new ideas for business lines every month and thinks it takes a few months to build a completely new product.

Pros

Toptal has been my favorite place to work so far! • The flexibility of remote work is amazing. • I’ve had the chance to work with fantastic clients. • The internal team is supportive, talented, and a pleasure to work with.

Cons

Sometimes it can take a bit longer to find a new engagement if you’re looking for opportunities in Asian time zones. In my experience, Europe and the Americas tend to have more opportunities and faster matching.
