Pros

Every day provides me opportunities to work with new people on new projects or initiatives. I'm able to contribute across the organization on a variety of projects which have broadened my knowledge and skills for the business. The people are THE BEST part about Toptal - 100's of people around the world that are incredibly talented, knowledgeable, and friendly. Lifelong friends are made at Toptal.

Cons

-The CEO is getting better but he has an elitist attitude. -The benefits/perks need to be within the industry (and general workplace) benchmark. -Recognition is hard to come by These are simple things that could be remedied quickly.

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.
