Pros

freedom to work from anywhere

Cons

horrible communication between and among teams, putting out fires right and left, decisions made at the top aren't explained, very hard to forecast workload for the day or week which undercuts the benefits of working remotely and thinking you will therefore have more control over your schedule.

Rapid-fire problem-solving and variable workloads are positives for anyone who is excited about building an innovative company. Everyone who is successful at Toptal loves rolling up their sleeves to solve interesting problems and get the job done. The opportunity and freedom to do it from anywhere is a bonus.

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.
