Pros

The ability to work from home and not miss the Stay at home mom life. I can work from my couch, my bed, my kids playroom. I don't have to pay for daycare and I don't have to miss out on the important things in life. With all of these fantastic pros aside another pro is this company. This company is all about being a team and not just another name on a paycheck. This company cares about you, about how you feel working for them. The other ZA's are helpful and not out to get you, or out to fire you, they are there to help encourage and uplift, even working from home I don't feel alone.

Cons

It is a set 8:30 - 5:30 mon- fri job. Fantastic hours but set. Maybe the pay could be better, but when I factor in not needing to pay for daycare or gas to and from work or even lunch while at work it is worth it.

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.
