Pros

I was with Optym for a short time and I’ve never felt more at home with another company. I came from a completely different industry and thanks to how welcoming and helpful everyone was, took no time to adjust. The people make this company fantastic and the company is headed in an upward direction. The opportunities to present ideas and ask questions are endless. The company fosters growth, acceptance, and improvement.

Cons

I can’t really think of any.

Pros

- Learning: doing cutting edge, challenging and interesting projects here at Optym. So, lots of opportunities to learn and grow. Of course it depends on you: show your interest and the management will gladly help you to grow. - People: very friendly folks. They do their best to support you in learning and accomplishing your tasks. Full support from team members. - Management: Optym is going through some changes which might be painful, but management is doing their best to support the employees and provide a friendly and prosperous work environment. - Working area: very clean and neatly designed buildings, cafe and cubicles. - Benefits: they offer very good health care packages and their 401K match is really good.

Cons

Gainesville is a small city and probably not the best place to grow your business. Makes it hard to attract talents as well.

Thank you so much for your review. Even though you are a former Optymer, we hope you will consider rejoining Optym in the future. We take pride in our revolutionary software and technology. While change in any organization is typical, we try to mitigate these concerns by having monthly town halls as well as bringing on senior leadership that will enable our company to continue to grow. Thank you again for your review and we wish you the best of luck in your future.

- Everybody is very friendly and super intelligent. - Very little politics or worrying about who gets credit for what. Team-centered atmosphere focused on collaboration. - Learning and personal growth is a important facet of company culture. - The company is working on problems to make the world more efficient. - The company has gone through a significant transformation with a focus on employees. Focus has shifted from time spent in desks to what results the employees are achieving. - The company focuses on continuous improvement. It identifies problems it has and works on fixing them.

Cons

Although full of brilliant problem solvers, the company has less experience at general business. They are actively working on addressing this need.

Thanks for your insightful feedback. A company is as good as its people and a company is made great only by great team members. We always strive to hire the best talent we can get and incentivize them so that they achieve their best potential. Due to the academic foundations of the company, the company has tech-heavy and lean on business and sales. We are in the process of changing that. We are developing the business and sales aspects of Optym and have started recruitment. We are also bringing seasoned C-suite executives to Optym so that they bring decades of experience in guiding us in our future growth.
