Pros

Belay is a great company to work for, especially if you are trying to balance working with kids at home.

Cons

It took a few months for me to actually get a client to work with, but once I did, I was consistently in an engagement for over 5yrs.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience and for the many years you dedicated to BELAY. We’re grateful for the commitment and care you brought to your work, and we’re especially glad to hear that the flexibility supported you well during a season of balancing work and family. We appreciate your honesty about the time it can take to secure an initial engagement. While the matching process is designed to ensure strong, long-term partnerships, we know that waiting can feel challenging. It’s encouraging to hear that once you were matched, the relationship led to a consistent and lasting engagement for many years. Thank you again for recommending BELAY and for being an important part of our journey. We wish you continued success in all that’s ahead. Warmly, The BELAY Team

Underpaid for work done -- you receive about $20 hour while they make about $70+ for your work, and support wanes after you are fully onboarded with the company you're contracted with

Legit work from home

Pros

Legit work from home job. Great support staff. Did a great job matching me with clients I get along with and work well with.

Cons

Pay is capped and only way to make more money is take on more clients that defeats the purpose of working around your schedule. Not good if you need full time pay. Do not get time off. If you take a day off you have to make the hours up later on the month. Ok for 1 day taking a week vacation almost isn’t worth it.

Thank you for taking the time to share your honest feedback. We truly appreciate your transparency. Your input is incredibly valuable as we continue to evaluate and improve the experience for everyone in this role. While the structure is designed to offer flexibility, we recognize that it doesn’t always meet every situation, particularly when it comes to extended time away or consistent earnings. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts. Your voice matters, and we’re always looking for ways to do better.
