Pros

Great people until you get to the higher echelons of leadership. Competitive pay. Generous time off. Great flexibility. Growth opportunities.

Cons

Hectic leadership with no patience to see strategies through. Sudden layoffs, very unceremonious. High churn and leadership turnover. Sometimes causes micromanagement.

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.
