Pros

Many strong leaders, very likable teammates, excellent business model and talent network second to none.

Cons

You never know when your turn at the chopping block will come. I've seen amazing talented leaders quit because of the chaos and lack of long term strategy coming from the highest executives.

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.
