Pros

Work from home with no commute. Fairly flexible hours as a Legacy hired before Zirtual 2.0. Great network with supportive and knowledgeable coworkers. Many wonderful, long standing clients.

Cons

Low pay. Retaining clients who were not a fit for the services offered. Internal ZA support system staff became increasingly less supportive of workers. Superficial attempts at transparency and processes. Rolled out systems and processes without full testing or adequate feedback from workers.

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.
