Pros

Great hours for a work-at-home gig. The two-week training course is very helpful to hit the ground running. Virtual co-workers are so helpful and friendly to a newbie. CEO and other higher ups are genuinely concerned about their employee's well-being. Don't work on holidays or weekends. Great vacation pay and other benefits.

Cons

Would like more flexibility in hours as a newbie. I know legacy employees already have that and understand that to be an employee need to have a more set schedule, but the flexibility would be great as long as client needs are met! Definitely not a deal-breaker for me though! Zirtual is awesome!!

For a VA starting out you are provided customers right away.

Cons

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.
