Pros

- I find my team members very brilliant and they are all spread across almost all continents in the world. - The Leadership tries to be very transparent. - The product is interesting, you get to solve a pressing real-world problem. - As a data engineer, you get to help the business answer important what and why questions which I find very interesting and challenging enough to keep me engaged. - Working remotely enables you to really take control of your time which I find very convenient and efficient.

Cons

Working remotely has its cons but still the pros far outweigh the cons in my opinion.

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.

Pros

Met some good dedicated employees and freelance workers.

Cons

Lack of any real industry solutions or capabilities since 100% of delivery services are freelance contractors. Model has been successful as providing staff augmentation to clients, but all intellectual capital and outcomes are owned by the clients or the freelancer. Toptal is simply a staffing platform broker who marks up the freelance talent. Great if you need a plumber, but not if you're planning to build a bathroom.
