Pros

- Large variety of highly skilled jobs - Very talented colleagues (from whom you can learn) - Tons of community events - Toptal helps you to grow as a professional (free Pluralsight account) - Lots of opportunities (apart of jobs): Write in the blog, screen developers, organize events... - Flexibility to work everywhere you like - You decide the salary you want to earn - You decide the vacations you want to have or the hours/week you want to work - I started loving software development again (on every company, you learn something new)

Cons

Most jobs are remote so, if you like to work in a more social environment, you'll probably miss the office colleagues. But Toptal promotes and pays for organizing social events, co-working days... so it kind of compensates it. Your hourly wage is in american dollars, so, if you are not from the USA, you need to pay a lot in currency conversion and bank fees (but that does not depend on Toptal). They could provide salary in other important currencies, such as EUR; this will be fantastic.

Pros

Toptal deserves all the praise it can get. This is a employee-centric company where everyone's opinion counts. It's driven by it's engineers and it's community. With that, each and every client counts as well and caring about end products when having over 2k clients is admirable. The company is also amazingly open and flexible. There are people who are hyper-motivated and work like crazy just because they love it so the work-life balance is dictated by you. I'm one of them and I'm yet to experience how it feels not to love your job every single day! I'm privileged to be working at Toptal. - Executive support [Being able to communicate whenever you want, with any person on Toptal from Taso and Breanden to every single developer in the network] - Flexibility [Working remotely, being able to travel and work is incredible] - Work/Life balance - Compensation - Growth - Opportunities - Remote work - Great clients - Exposure to amazing people and talented people.

Cons

I found none in 2 years that I've been working with Toptal.
