Optiv reviews

You're just a person/number, if you're in the field Optiv security partners would be astonished by what Optiv leadership says behind closed doors about their reseller partners. There is no partnership, and they are driving away a number of partners to further business. Optiv is actually trying to move away from their partner's products and focus mainly on services. Optiv believes the traditional VAR is dead. This company is desperate, as they didn't hit their numbers in 2017, so leadership is in real trouble, if they don't hit numbers again in 2018. C-Levels will not be with Optiv in 2019 if these numbers aren't achieved, plus for the first time in company history, quotas were reduced in hopes of actually hitting sales numbers. Uncompetitive versus other IT security service providers for assessments, etc. Smaller IT security resellers and service providers are more flexible to fit customer's needs. Over-scoping of projects is well known by customers. Really only focused on the large Fortune 1000 companies, so mid-enterprise/SMB companies are unable to pay the large service fees. Churn and burn from the Executive level. Over the past two years, there has been so much turnover at the executive & management level, and a lot of the old leadership has been forced out. This definitely has impacted culture and Glassdoor rating, as I believe it was a 4-star company when I joined. Low commission structure

Executives show over and over again how little they care for their employees Bonuses have been all but abolished due to requirements for the company to meet EBITDA goals, set by greedy executives and investors with no understanding of how a new company will not perform as well as the general security market, especially coupled with the incredible demoralizing from our execs including routine threats of firing people on sales all hand calls. Heath benefits are sub par compared to other major consulting orgs. Travel is almost constant and now with no bonuses there's no point in working our butts off anymore. Bonus changes were made retroactive, essentially robbing everyone of thousands (if not tens of thousands) of dollars for Q1, regardless of exceptional individual performance due to company missing goals that were poorly set CEO couldn't care less about his people. CFO calls employees "biggest cost" in all hands call. We are your biggest ASSETS!
