Pros

I've worked for Zirtual for over a year now and I can honestly say it has been more fulfilling than I ever imagined! Not only do I have flexibility while I work from home, I also have the opportunity to capitalize on a full benefits package and growth within the company. I am privileged enough to have the chance to attend school functions with my children while also having a successful professional life...who even knew that was possible in today's workforce?!?! The culture within Zirtual is second to none - when employees speak in this company, the upper management listens and adjusts the work flow appropriately. This is not something that should be taken lightly - I'm not talking about an email thread, I'm talking about a one-on-one conversation with the CEO. Can you say the same about your company? As a former teacher I can assure you that was never the norm for me; my administrators never asked my opinion on procedures, much less took that feedback to develop a more successful entity. While everyone has their opinions, I am excited to see where Zirtual goes in the future! Even more than that, I'm excited to be an integral part of the growth this company will be experiencing!!

Cons

I have absolutely no cons!

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.
