Rated 4/5 before - everything has gotten (even) better!

Pros

- very welcoming, kind, understanding, supportive people - extreme flexibility in working hours/times/approach/etc. as long as I contribute well (company has been fully remote for 8+ years as well) - no intended crunch or overwork, active efforts to minimize/eliminate unintended ones - we actually do what we preach (i.e. trying to live up to company values, etc.) - something is always improving, my issues from when I rated Toggl 4/5 a few years ago have all improved a lot, as well as many other things - privately funded and very stable financially, and personnel-wise (no layoffs for financial reasons, or even redundancy reasons in years) - great hiring process that virtually removes the necessity for probation periods (huge benefit for both sides!)

Cons

- the company has grown up a lot in recent years, but it's still got further to go in terms of process maturity (things like project management, cross-team/department collaboration... the will is there, but we're still working on the skills) - Toggl is not an exponentially scaling start-up (anymore), however, growth has been positive every year, and there are good plans to step it up further - with remote work, flexibility and freedom comes responsibility as well, while we do a lot to help, being successful at Toggl still requires a good amount of self-motivation, bias for action, ownership, accountability, etc. - salaries are not competitive with all markets, though there is a strong drive (and actual salary increases) that are making these gaps smaller and smaller

Pros

- Self-funded and profitable - Good product and awesome product-led growth - A great number of highly skilled and motivated people - Countless opportunities to learn, improve, take ownership and make a positive impact

Cons

- The company has grown a lot in recent years, and there have been a lot of growing pains which could have been addressed earlier - The current leadership culture is not as strong as it could be However, I will say that there is a strong drive and some very dedicated people working on improving these and many other things (and there have been a lot of positive changes!). I could see myself rating Toggl 5/5 in a year if this trend continues.

Amazing people, great culture, exciting challenges

Pros

- seriously value driven company and culture - focus on agile principles, like interactions over processes - constant drive for improvement in all areas - exciting technical and organizational challenges due to great and sustainable company growth - profitable with good margins and large and quickly growing customer base - fully remote for many years - very open and transparent internal communication, across all levels - company takes clear and public stance against surveillance and other questionable practices in the industry

Cons

- remote work and focus on trust, freedom and individual responsibility may not be for everyone - the company has been around for 15+ years, it’s not exactly a start-up anymore and there is naturally some amount of legacy and history to deal with - decisions could sometimes be made a little faster, but this has already improved a lot over the last year or so
