      Pros

      The hiring process was very straightforward, I matched with a business within weeks of starting, and I am still working with the same business with no plans to leave! I’ve only had a positive experience with Belay and have had a very communicative CSC to rely on when I have any questions.

      Cons

      The ONLY complaint I have and was unaware of when hired, was that the business I work for cannot hire me as an employee for 2-3 years AFTER they end their contract with Belay. Or they could “buy me out” but it’s anywhere from 10k-20k depending on how long I’ve been with them. It seems rather steep in my opinion considering the fact that the business I work for pays Belay the same amount they pay me per month.

      Hi there, thank you so much for your review! It's good to hear that you felt our hiring process was efficient and that your CSC has been very communicative. In regard to your concern about buyouts, we would suggest directly addressing this with your CSC, and/or reviewing your contract as that is something that concerns BELAY and our clients.

      Pros

      Work from home with flexible schedule. It was what I needed at the time to transition out from a corporate environment.

      Cons

      They pay 1099, not W-2. That is illegal. They have responded to posts already stating that everyone knew this upfront-and that is true. But that knowledge does not make it legal. I must use the payroll company, bill pay service, and document portal they tell me to. I must upload specific documents, including a bank reconciliation to prove that it had been completed, to their portal. The pay is competitive to a W-2 rate, but not 1099 rate. And, of course, because it is 1099, no benefits.

      Pros

      Flexibility, great bosses, varied work, add or subtract clients depending on need

      Cons

      VAs are independent contractors so you have to manage your own insurance, taxes, etc.
