Pros

Working for Zirtual has provided me with the biggest privilege- which is being able to stay home with my kids, and work at the same time. I love that I am able to respond to clients and complete tasks and still be able to interact with my kids. Zirtual is a team, and everyone works great together. Everyone is so nice and supportive!

Cons

Really there are only 2 "downsides" in my opinion. The first is the pay- Zirtual is currently working to increase this. However, $11 an hour is a little tough. Secondly, is the lack of flexibility. Those of us with kids to take to and from school could use a little bit more flexibility. Again, something that Zirtual is working toward improving.

All customers are ready to work with VA, causing slow ramp-ups and some clients disappearing

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.
