Toptal reviews

for freelancers: very little offers available recently. sometimes applying for a job feels like race to the bottom where you have to state your so called competitive rate

- When facing personal challenges, initial flexibility and support were appreciated, but expectations quickly returned to a very high bar without much transition time. - The Performance Improvement Plan felt rigid, with limited margin for recovery if targets were missed even briefly. - Promises of post-employment support and re-entry into the Toptal Talent Network were not followed through as clearly or effectively as discussed. - Post-exit, the process to rejoin as a contractor was disorganized, with repeated profile changes and little proactive guidance.
