      Pros

      Nothing. Perhaps being able to work from home but Toptal was such a horrible place to work it made even opening my laptop fill me with dread.

      Cons

      Everything, but here is a short-list: - Terrible management - Lack of processes within teams - No benefits for any members outside the US - They advocate flexi-working but there is no trust whatsoever and expect to answer Slack evenings and weekends - No mentorship - No OKR process or individual progression - Hiring and firing culture (I know over 5 people personally who got fired without any warning or indication) - Lack of career progression - Teammates who treat you badly but you have no evidence because it is remote.

      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.
