Pros

- Once you have established a solid relationships with matchers and managers, you will always have a pipeline for work. Do good, solid work and expand your skills and you will be working with Toptal for a long time. - Easy quick and painless payment process - Very simple and straightforward onboarding post interview - Interesting projects and teams spanning the globe

Cons

- Might have occasions where customer expectation management is key and the customer simply is not manageable (this is a rarity) - Payscale is generally lower than market for some roles but you can make it up in volume. Consider multiple PT roles versus a single FT role to keep a continuous pipeline

Pros

None. Avoid. This is a sinking ship.

Cons

As others have mentioned, the leadership of Toptal is very poor. Constant changes of direction, unstable leaders, a product with tons of competition. They also have extremely high turnover. Even if you get a job here, you'll be looking again in under a year.
