Pros

Resilient to the pandemic recession

Cons

The health insurance at Optiv has always been subpar especially when compared to the amazing plans at competitors like WWT. It's an expensive high deductable plan that leaves employees on the hook for 10's of thousands of dollars a year in premiums and deductibles while failing to cover things like Autism Therapy. This year, however, Optiv decided to take it a step further and conduct an audit of all dependents in an effort to throw children off their health plan. What an awful tone-deaf way to save a buck during a global pandemic! Optiv want's to be an employer of choice but it's hard to choose a company that uses a global pandemic as an excuse to target children's health coverage and defers cost of living raises, even though the company remains financially on target.

Pros

You can't get a much better work life balance. Optiv offers unlimited PTO and has managers that truly want you to take it.

Cons

Healthcare options could be improved.

A Numbers Game

Pros

The people, but all the good ones are gone.

Cons

The company has turned into a numbers organization. Its all about the projections, does not matter if they are growing year to year, they can never reach the unattainable projections. If every employee worked at 100% utilization the projections will still not be met. What does that tell you?
