Pros

This review is based on my experience as a Toptal Core Team member. The freelancer network is different in many aspects (e.g., benefits). * 100% remote; * Working with a world-class team of highly skilled developers and learning a lot from them; * Healthy work environment; * Good work-life balance; * Good salary; * Paid vacation (~20 days a year) and paid leave on national holidays (~7 days a year); * Code quality and code reviews are taken seriously. * Incentive and many opportunities for learning and improving our professional skills. * When a new version of Ruby or Rails comes up, we start using it quickly. In this way, we are using the latest stable versions most of the time.

Cons

* None that I can think of so far.

Pros

Toptal has been my favorite place to work so far! • The flexibility of remote work is amazing. • I’ve had the chance to work with fantastic clients. • The internal team is supportive, talented, and a pleasure to work with.

Cons

Sometimes it can take a bit longer to find a new engagement if you’re looking for opportunities in Asian time zones. In my experience, Europe and the Americas tend to have more opportunities and faster matching.
