Pros

Good benefits and perks.

Cons

Inept CEO and project management that has run the business in the ground. Nepotism and favoritism at its best. Other people taking credit for your job. Unless you keep your nose brown, you stand no chance. Your achievements are not appreciated. You have to belong to the clique to make it there. Good people leaving in flocks every month. If you are looking for a stable place, go look somewhere else. You don't need to work for poor management like this. There are much better companies around that would appreciate your talent.

Dear former Optymer, Thank you for your comments and feedback. Based on your statements regarding recognition and appreciation for good work, your concerns align most closely to the area of performance management. We received feedback internally that our previous performance management process needed an overhaul. We listened. Optym has introduced a new performance management process and system to manage it. With our new system, all work objectives and associated key results are fully transparent and reportable. As part of our new process, employees and managers touch base within the system throughout the month and meet on a monthly basis. Our new process helps employees readily see how they are performing as compared to communicated expectations. Performance pitfalls such as favoritism and recency bias are mitigated by these changes as well. We will continue optimizing our new system and process to ensure all employees know where they stand regarding performance and are recognized accordingly. Best regards, Optym HR
