Does Time Etc offer unlimited holiday?
Pros
The staff at Time are always extremely helpful in facilitating a positive interaction between the clients and the VAs. It can be a challenge to find a client that is a good fit, so that is a process of time, trial and error, but the case managers are fantastic at helping you find the right client, and when a client isn't a good fit, they step in to get them re-assigned. When something comes up in life that causes you to need time off, if you can't work that out with the client to cover their needs, the staff at Time will find someone to substitute in and cover the tasks for you. When I have been sick with covid, had a death in the family, etc the staff not only offered to help with my tasks, they sent emails checking on my health and my family.
Cons
Finding the right client is definitely a process. Many of the people who seek VAs are not sure what they want help with, or they don't want to make the commitment of having an employee. That means that they often want the VAs to be available on the spur of the moment without giving consistent hours.
Advice to Management
Nothing. They are the best!

What kind of career opportunities exist at Time Etc?
Pros
The best reason to work for Time Etc is because you get the opportunity to work from home. They provide you with clients that correspond with your skill set.
Cons
Virtual Assistance are only offered more money if the client that they accept is difficult. The standard rate of pay is low regardless of your skill set and/or degree(s). If the VA and a client do not work well together and either party decides it is not a good fit, they quit offering clients to you.
Advice to Management
Thoroughly investigate ending terms before refusing to offer VA's new clients. Annual or performance pay increases, rather than only when accepting difficult people.
