Pros

Optiv was a great place to start within the "Cybersecurity" industry, but outside of that there were few benefits.

Cons

If you look at Optiv, they are very heavy on Management, but they don't place any importance in managment. I clearly recall multiple managers and VPs stating that they had no control over anything (pay, discounting, fixing customer environments, etc). The company is run by folks from consulting firms who are in the business of squeezing out every nickle from OPEX to sell the company.

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
