Pros

No rookies around. All the colleagues I've met at Toptal were top-notch in what they do, not making the company a Mickey Mouse. Great for people who want to work and learn from the best. People are really helpful, however many times you can expect to hear "I am too busy at the moment". Remuneration is decent. Many employees there are digital nomads and you can become one easily. If you do well, you have all the opportunities to grow up too.

Cons

If you are used to inclusive and diverse workspace and these topics are on top of your wishlist you are gonna struggle. The company is moving fast-pace and this is clearly not a priority at least for now. Management always stresses out new ideas but honestly, they don't welcome them with open hands. Many managers have flaws and unfortunately, about-to-be managers are often copycatting them blindly to both satisfy them and get easier access to growth.

Nice colleagues, horrible leadership, stingy financially

Pros

Great team culture for remote company. Ability to work remote. Good training. Nice and supportive managers (for the most part)

Cons

Pay isn't great. The company is pretty stingy with their commission percentage. They are even stingy with the stipend for the tech stack they provide. Considering they have very little to no overhead you would think it would be the opposite. CEO is a narcissist. They have company wide meetings and half of the company dreads them because they have to hear him speak rudely to everyone. Folks internally will ask him questions at meetings and he'll either ignore them or give short and rude responses if it's a question her doesn't like. Recently did pretty big layoffs because they over hired. Overall, I would not recommend working here.
