<bold>Subject and purpose of work:</bold> This paper aims to review the current literature on virtual teams in order to compile what we, as a scientific community, know about virtual teams and their management
<bold>Materials and methods:</bold> This research study is based on a systematic literature review of the Scopus database.
<bold>Results:</bold> The study provides a holistic definition of virtual teams and their classification based on a variety of criteria. It also discusses types of virtual teams as well as their benefits and drawbacks.. The key characteristics of virtual team management are analysed in relation to traditional team management
<bold>Conclusions:</bold> In 2022, virtual teams are promising and dynamically developing as digital technologies, current globalisation and the COVID19 pandemic allow for and even enforce remote work. This form of employment is beneficial and convenient, but at the same time, associated with some risks and difficulties that can be avoided with the proper organisation of the process.
