Pros

Work Remotely and not have a commute

Cons

Terrible management, unprofessional process, people wasting your time. All of the employees seem more focused on their lifestyle than quality work or solid process. Do not come here expecting to pick up good habits

We take a tremendous amount of pride in our company culture, and strongly emphasize hiring driven, disciplined people who can hold themselves accountable while working remotely. We do not tolerate anyone who is just looking for a “lifestyle company” and is not motivated by building a world-class remote organization. Given that, we always have an open door policy for feedback. If there’s anything specific you’d like to share, don’t hesitate to reach out to the People Operations Team at any time.

Pros

Productive, efficient, forward-thinking, and fun - just a few words I use to describe what it is like to work at Toptal. The culture is excellent and provides its employees with a sense of community that is truly global. Working remotely allows me to structure my life to my needs, all while having the support of a great working environment and clear professional goals. The benefits are fantastic as well, offering a 401K plan. I feel that Toptal is the type of place everyone dreams about working for. 10/10.

Cons

Nothing comes to mind.

Pros

Exciting projects and challenges in which you feel that your work does matter. Flexibility to work from wherever you want.

Cons

An important caveat of the remote environment's flexibility is the fact that sometimes it is difficult to log off and wrap things up for the day. A lot of discipline is required in order to avoid burnout.
