      Pentest Puppy Mill - Security Consultant Optiv Employee Review

      Pros

      The budget for training is decent. If you're in the in-crowd, you're solid and protected.

      Cons

      Personal feelings get in the way of business more often than not. The Attack and Penetration team used to be a really solid group, but with current management it's turned in to a pentest puppy mill. Promoting from within is great, if you expand outside of your friends, and actually train managers to be managers prior to them taking on a team.

      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
