Pros

Beautiful Denver Hq ( empty office ). $$$ should have gone into the business/people. Had some of the best people. Place to build relationships for your career after Optiv.

Cons

Not a meritocracy. Lack of advancement. As others have stated you will be a slave. New alignment and Sr Management every few quarters. New leadership seems to continually fail. This has been going on for over 5 yrs. No change in behavior. Instead of listening to long term employees who know the business better than anyone from outside. No investment in Services but they want to be a Services company. Not paid bonuses. Bonus data manipulation. Wholesale Pandemic layoffs of revenue generating, profit making employees. That says volumes about culture. Shows no care for the people who actually run the business. Founder/ CEO pushed out by PE. This company cannot compete and should be broken up and sold for its parts before there is no value left.

We appreciate the time you took to share your input and regret that Optiv was not a fit for your career. Change is never easy but the transformation completed last year was hugely beneficial to our clients and future success. To clarify, Optiv did not have pandemic layoffs and in fact we landed new clients and revenue streams by helping organizations manage new remote employee working structures. Lastly of note, our founder is still at Optiv and a huge benefit to our journey.

Pros

Nice building. my co-workers are good people

Cons

Completely clueless company on how business is run. using 1980's management style to compete in this era's technology world, workforce. The company thinks marketing is golf and beer bashes. Has no idea how to scale sales when everyone else has automated and uses ecommerce.
