Pros
The freedom to work from anywhere is awesome. I love being able to work from wherever I have Internet access. The transparency and communication within the company is refreshing, as well. The decision-makers are very involved with their 'ground forces', constantly sending out surveys and requests for input on how they can improve our experience. The culture is one of support. You can always reach out to other people in the company and they are quick to jump in and help. Small groups offer day-to-day support and reduce the isolation these types of work-from-home jobs can bring. Finally, the company is improving at a rapid pace. They've been rolling out new programs for employees to increase the amount of benefits we get from our jobs and make advancement easier within the company.
Cons
While the location you can work from is flexible, the time isn't. There is only an option for full-time, and once you choose a time zone to work in, that's the one you stay in (with exceptions, of course). For me, that's totally fine. For others, it might not be flexible enough. As with any rapidly growing company, sometimes new policies take some time for the kinks to work out. The nice thing about Zirtual is they're very open about this and are quick to fix something if it's not working. The pay could be higher, especially considering the amount/ type of work we do on a regular basis. Compensation and benefits have been an area of improvement lately, which is a promising sign.
