Toptal reviews

Senior leadership keeps changing direction, starting and stopping projects over and over with no clear plan. The company has had multiple rounds of layoffs, which has damaged the culture and left people afraid to speak up or take responsibility. The layoffs are handled in a harsh, impersonal way. Everyone is called to an urgent meeting, where they simply announce that some people are being let go. Afterward, you get an email with details, and within an hour, people’s accounts are deactivated. You just see teammates disappear from Slack, without any real communication or empathy.

Irrational impulsive top-down decisions Toxic work culture Frequent lay-offs Lack of trust Years of no pay rise
