Vantaggi
I do not recommend this company.
Svantaggi
Company refuses to work with me, despite my having excellent credentials. I was told "...we have no part-time virtual positions available at this time" yet, I see numerous BELAY job postings daily, via my different feeds. The client base that they work with doesn't appear to be completely sold on hiring Virtual Assistants. I was assigned three clients over the past few years. One client threatened to sue BELAY, the second was not trusting of working with a VA and rarely delegated work. The third client was very demanding, cut-throat and rude. At the time, I was juggling being a stay-at-home to my five-year old and working part-time (which was challenging). Now, my five year-old is in school, full-time and BELAY refuses to work with me. Very disappointed with this company.
Vantaggi
Working for Belay has completely changed our family! We now have the ability to truly prioritize what we find most important. Belay also makes the onboarding process so smooth. They were with me and so encouraging through every step!
Svantaggi
None - I have been nothing but impressed with Belay!
Vantaggi
Somewhat Flexible Work from Home
Svantaggi
Low Pay Clients pay Belay $50-$60/hr for Virtual Assistant but they don't know that Belay is only paying the VA $20/hr so they expect $60 attention. High expectations and desired attention for very low pay. VA's are in contract with Belay. So if one of their engagements want them to work for them to work for them full time outside of Belay they have to buy out the VA'a contract with Belay that could be up to $20k. If the engagement can't afford to do that they have to wait 2 years after their contract and after the VA's contract ends with Belay.
