Pros
Hybrid work schedule and comfortability of having a paycheck
Cons
Management cannot take constructive criticism, there is little to no training for most positions. Optima has had 5 different rounds of large layoffs and each time let go of tenured employees who helped build the business from the ground up to replace them with lower paid workers. They have also began outsourcing employees to Mexico and the Philippines in effort to cut costs. For a US Tax firm that seems a bit unethical to me. They try to pride themselves on “good business practices” when they have been the most shady from the start with misleading employees and clients alike.
