Pros

The people are phenomenal. Very likeminded individuals who I could see myself being more than just colleagues with but rather lifelong friends. Also, I’ve seen pay at multiple orgs and they seem to be on top of their game here in terms of fair value competitively.

Cons

Given it’s a consultancy, it can be a grind - particularly during q4. But that’s just the biz and the same problems exist across diff orgs and industries and not Optiv-specific.

Pros

Unlimited PTO Supportive Management Depending on who you get Good work life balance as long as you don't take the job with you after hours Work from Home Hands on Training - could still use improvement Annual pay increase

Cons

2 layoffs in a year when they keps saying everything was fine.... Laying off core contributors so now everyone who is left is doing the work of 2-3 people and not being compensated accordingly Only way to get a worth while pay increase is to move up in the company the annual increases are not inline with inflation or cost of living
