Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with BELAY. We’re grateful to hear that you experienced transparent leadership and the strong culture that our team works hard to cultivate each day. We also appreciate you sharing your perspective regarding growth opportunities. As a relatively lean and highly specialized organization, career paths can sometimes look different than they might in larger companies with many layers of management. That said, we are always looking for ways to invest in our team members through professional development, expanded responsibilities, and opportunities to grow their skills and impact. Feedback like yours helps us continue improving the experience for our team members, and we’re grateful you took the time to share it. We wish you the very best in your continued career journey. Warmly, The BELAY Team

Pros

Somewhat Flexible Work from Home

Cons

Low Pay Clients pay Belay $50-$60/hr for Virtual Assistant but they don't know that Belay is only paying the VA $20/hr so they expect $60 attention. High expectations and desired attention for very low pay. VA's are in contract with Belay. So if one of their engagements want them to work for them to work for them full time outside of Belay they have to buy out the VA'a contract with Belay that could be up to $20k. If the engagement can't afford to do that they have to wait 2 years after their contract and after the VA's contract ends with Belay.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for partnering with BELAY. We’re glad to hear that the opportunity to work remotely was a positive part of your journey, as flexibility and access to meaningful work are foundational to our model. We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding compensation. Client needs and scope of work vary widely, and those factors directly influence role expectations across engagements. BELAY’s role is to thoughtfully match contractors with clients whose needs, complexity, and investment align with the contractor’s experience and preferences, while also providing support beyond placement alone. Our model is designed to reduce many of the challenges independent contractors face by handling client acquisition, vetting, matching, contracts, invoicing, and collections, allowing contractors to focus on delivering excellent work rather than managing backend logistics. That said, we recognize that compensation expectations evolve and that market conditions continue to change. We regularly review the pay rate of our contractors to ensure it reflects both client demand and the value our contractors bring. Contractors are also encouraged to bring any concerns regarding their pay rate directly to their BELAY Talent Specialist. We’re grateful for your feedback and for your partnership with BELAY. Input like this helps inform ongoing improvements as we work to create sustainable, mutually beneficial partnerships for both contractors and clients. Warmly, The BELAY Team
