Pros

Work from home, but this is a real job, you will not work well if you don't work from home with attitude as being in a workplace, it can be fast paced. Need to be disciplined as you are working with a lot of c-level clients, they expect stellar work. Supervisors are there to step in when needed, supportive. Clients usually treat you like an asset and not a faceless virtual help, which is easy with remote jobs to forget the person on the other side is not a bot and a real person.

Cons

Workload can get chaotic during certain parts of the year when all clients are ramping up with their projects. Long term clients build a good relationship with their ZA and are usually very respectful, sometimes need to remind them you have other clients. But if your projects are done in time, this isn't any issue.

Pros

Zirtual now includes Double, Virtual Gurus, Delegated, and Del Trust. We are under the umbrella of PennSpring Capital so this cash cow is not going anywhere.

Cons

They take 50% of the client's fee; we pay a 30% Federal tax + State tax on the remainder, in addition to sourcing our own software and equipment. They say we can turn down client offers BUT they rarely send clients since the acquisitions. When they do, it is hard not to accept because it could be months before they send another. Management says, "we are waiting for a client that matches you." Meanwhile, they continue to hire new Virtual Assistants. Team meetings now include a justification for continued hired despite the massive under use of our existing team. When I started, I earned 3x times more than what I am making now. I can tell you from experience, it is really hard to plan meals for someone when you are starving.
