      Pros

      Optiv has helped me scale my career thus far. There are plenty of opportunities to move up in this company. Paid competitively. I have the flexibility to construct my own definition of work/life balance. My manager is easily the best person I have worked for so far in my career - hands off, down to earth, funny, and trusting. My manager actually cares about me and my success in the future.

      Cons

      When I travel to Denver, there is a ton of drama. Not-so-great benefits package - very expensive and Optiv doesn't contribute much to FSA/HSA. I find that disheartening considering the revenues. I've worked for companies with significantly less revenues that contribute $1,000 to FSA/HSA. They could easily do better in terms of benefits.

      Pre-Sales

      Pros

      Great people I worked with and I thought I had a solid position.

      Cons

      Recent re-org (layoff) in the pre-sales side makes it seem like they are more worried about expansion in India, Canada, and Europe than they are in the US. My team made our quota and then some, however they still disrupted all the momentum we had going for us in our region. Very sad to see and be a part of that. They make you feel like a valued person, but the way they handled this re-org, really layoff, made people feel like a number and undervalued. However I made a lot of relationships with major clients through this position that I value tremendously. Keep this up Optiv and you will be just another VAR.

      A merger that turned ugly

      Pros

      Great industry, lots of talented people, still.

      Cons

      After the merger the benefits were downgraded, bonuses cut, questionable leadership decisions. There's been a systematic dismantling of Fishnet Securities most talented turning it into a shell of itself. The outcome is a company that could have been great is not so great if you look under the hood.
