Pros

For a small company, Optimo has a unique role working on some pretty big and exciting projects. As someone who has worked across a number of these projects, I have always found that each individual team member is able to bring their own ideas and skills and approach to the table in a way that gives you the liberty to innovate and grow. Optimo has also provided a great deal of flexibility in terms of remote working and schedule that has allowed for better productivity and being able to integrate and adapt to any lifestyle. I have also enjoyed working with lots of great team members over the years and have learned a great deal from others who come with different backgrounds and skills. Overall a great experience.

Cons

Optimo has at times struggled to find the right individuals to fit certain roles. A receptive management has always been great at making necessary adjustments to make sure all team members are happy and have a stable work environment.

Pros

- Coworkers are generally really great: there really are some wonderful people working here - Potential opportunities to work in many different projects. Had a chance to work on all kinds of projects early on- if they ever get back to doing more commercial projects it's a great way to experience many different projects from the ground up

Cons

- Pay absolutely did not keep up with industry and raises were inconsistent at best: went several years without even a cost of living adjustment when inflation was at an all time high - Too much middle management/red tape in projects (especially anything government related). Endless meetings, recording every detail of how you spent your time in 4-5 different places, often felt like the clerical side of things was more important to managers than actually getting things done - Several projects seemed to lack direction or felt like they were started too early leading to feeling like you were doing a lot of "busy work" just to hit the hours they wanted
