Pros

The work life balance you get when working from home is amazing. The leadership has been great and the team is extremely talented. The on boarding process was very streamlined. They do a great job of providing steady, meaningful work without overloading you like some other firms. Overall I look forward to working everyday and have no regrets about joining Optiv.

Cons

Health benefits are slightly higher than I am used to but not horrible.

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
