Pros

- Fully remote for all roles (company has no offices) - Generally good to above market base pay - Friendly co-workers

Cons

- Frequent layoffs with little to no clear rationale. Many teams have lost over half their headcount over the last 2-3 quarters. - Benefits including healthcare and 401K match have gone away, and salaries have been frozen for over a year - Most of senior sales leadership has quit / resigned over past 6 months, current morale is rock bottom - Culture of fear well established from the top down - Absolutely no vision of the future. Toptal hit it big during the pandemic when customers were craving remote tech talent. Since then, there has been zero innovation and Toptal has become just another staffing company.

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.
