Pros

In 20 years of selling I have never had some many tools in my toolkit. Selling is getting easier and easier. Driven by the investments the Dan and the ELT is making in helping us get more strategic with our clients at the executive level along with new offerings at a program level. Optiv has a lot to offer anyone wanting to be part of the company that will lead the security industry.

Cons

Optiv is becoming a large company fast, and those growing pains can hurt if not well thought through.

Pros

Unlimited PTO Supportive Management Depending on who you get Good work life balance as long as you don't take the job with you after hours Work from Home Hands on Training - could still use improvement Annual pay increase

Cons

2 layoffs in a year when they keps saying everything was fine.... Laying off core contributors so now everyone who is left is doing the work of 2-3 people and not being compensated accordingly Only way to get a worth while pay increase is to move up in the company the annual increases are not inline with inflation or cost of living
