Very segmented after the merger. A lot of end-fighting. There is still a large division between the previous FishNet and Accuvant leaderhsip

Pros

There are a number of talented people who care and work hard in spite of the chaos from the Accuvant & Fishnet Security merger.

Cons

Optiv is top heavy with Accuvant management who like to impress themselves with ability to spout jargon and buzzwords. Integrity is in short supply with this outfit.
