Pros

Optima is a very communicative company where they provide you with all that you need to fulfill your job your here. Everyone is very friendly and professional here! After being here for a month, they've given me the opportunity to learn a new project and training is very prioritized here. There hasn't been a time so far where I wasn't informed about something new happening! Love the perks of having a great coffee machine, a fridge to purchase snacks, and a great restaurant nearby! Love it here already as they really push for growth in the company (not like my other jobs).

Cons

Had to start work later than I wanted to and had to stay on a specific schedule for the 3 month probation, which meant getting out much later.

Pros

Everybody here is happy to be here. Training was better than most places. Management really cares about this company and they go a long way to ensure the work experience is the best they can make it. Management is also very patient with you during and after your training period. There doesn't seem to be a lot of office politics either which is a plus. Come in, work, do the job the way it is laid out for you and you will be good.

Cons

phone interview, panel interview and another in person interview seemed excessive.

Pros

-Excellent hiring experience from interview to on boarding material, HR help (Christina Truong) is professional and courteous. -Excellent Management (Kevin Romine, Michelle Botta, Shannon Payne, Neil Leaves) they make you feel appreciated, very knowledgeable, patient and always available to help. -Excellent Training... they spend a week getting you prepared for the sales floor and Raymond Dinnen is an absolute stud. -Great Environment and Culture for Success... Team Leads are patient, experienced and knowledgeable. Everyone is very helpful. Bonuses are fun, raffles and other games. Flexible schedules and OT opportunities. Company events and they are not oppose to celebrating holidays within the company with decoration and what now... everyone gets involved which makes it fun. -Compensation, nothing huge in compensation for the first 2 months. Everyone around you that has been there at least 3 months seems to be making a decent amount of money. -Leads are distributed out evenly! -Leadership... I believe great organizations start at the top, our CEO David King and Co-Owner Harry give off the vibe of CARING FOR THE CLIENT AND EMPLOYEES. They stop by and see how we are doing, they join events and they update us on whats going on in our industry. It really feels like we are all along for the ride together. I'd highly recommend great people to apply.

Cons

Tons of meetings that may take you out of your daily job rhythm. I feel once you're 2 months in the job simplifies. In the beginning you may find yourself taking work home with you for the first 6 weeks. Again this will likely change once you understand the basics and don't have to review in these meetings.
