Pros

Autonomy to do your best work, inspiration from dynamic and hard-working leaders, tools and support to collaborate and work remotely.

Cons

Being successful here requires commitment to the cause, ability to identify within yourself "What more can I do?" and a strong sense of pride in delivering high-quality work. Without these, working at Toptal would be challenging. These are more of a "heads up" than a "con". Depending on which time zone you are in, some meetings are outside of traditional working hours. To me, this is a healthy trade-off to being able to work anywhere in the world.

Amazing Company, Brilliant People

Pros

Toptal stood out from the very first interaction- the speed and intensity of the hiring process, the communication, and especially the transparency. Toptal isn't looking for employees, they are looking for exceptional partners to take their vision of the workplace forward.

Cons

These are not at all cons for me or the people working for Toptal, but a remote culture is not for those who want to operate anonymously or who want set hours and a constant routine. Working at Toptal is dynamic, constantly changing, and challenging. These are tremendous "pros" if you are the right fit for Toptal.

Pros

Flexible working time and great managers makes even very complicated tasks stress-free. Data and common-sense driven company makes business decisions crystal clear and understandable. Interesting, friendly and professional people from all around the world.

Cons

You have to be responsible and take remote work seriously. But it is not even a minus.
