Pros

It's a great place to learn sales and learn how to work in a 100% remote company.

Cons

Culture exists but it's not the culture you want to spend your 12 hour days working in. It's a top down problem. The CEO is the least inspiring, selfish person I've ever worked with.

Pros

Met some good dedicated employees and freelance workers.

Cons

Lack of any real industry solutions or capabilities since 100% of delivery services are freelance contractors. Model has been successful as providing staff augmentation to clients, but all intellectual capital and outcomes are owned by the clients or the freelancer. Toptal is simply a staffing platform broker who marks up the freelance talent. Great if you need a plumber, but not if you're planning to build a bathroom.
