Pros

1. Lot of small things like friday lunch and learns, special interest groups ,weekly comic strips, ping pong, mini library, bowling nights etc. make it a fun place to work at. 2. Natural lighting all day. Most comfortable chairs. outdoor seating. Nap rooms. One of the best offices I have seen. 3. Being a small-mid sized company, the rate at which things move are really fast without any Bureaucracy 4. Work satisfaction. I have a lot of freedom to design/present algorithms and to implement them. 5. Importance given to work ownership. Trusted me with clients and let me handle their developments few months after I started full time. 6. Challenging work. Very few companies work with this level of challenging problems in Operations research.

Cons

I cannot think of any big cons to put down here. One minor thing I can think of is the location of its US office. Gainesville does not have big city perks like that of San Fransisco or even Austin

Pros

Optym is a very diverse company with employees from over 20 countries. This helped create a unique company culture that fosters an ambiance of understanding, and openness. We have a flat hierarchy and the senior management is very approachable. In fact, the CEO knows everyone by name. A great deal of time and energy is spent in recruiting new team members as they need to be a good fit both from a technical and cultural standpoint. Consequently, you get to work with the best minds across the country in the field of Computer Science and Operations Research. Our office space is easily one of the best in the state of Florida. The headquarters in Gainesville, FL offers a very welcoming, peaceful and eco-friendly place to work. Our designers have done a fabulous job in crafting it to perfection and infused our core motto of "Live Efficiently" in every corner of the building. We have had amazing growth in the last couple of years with regards to team size and revenue. I enjoy coming to work and strongly recommend our company to anyone with a go-getter attitude and buckets full of ambition (not to forget sound technical skills) to make the world a better place to live in through "Decision Automation".

Cons

There are no major shortcomings

Pros

1. People are extremely smart and motivated towards solving hard problems. 2. Academia culture: Very high scope to apply new ideas; Workplace is very comforting 3. Concept of lunch and learn (motivating when visiting client presidents/VPs, top academia, businessmen share their experiences)

Cons

1. At times, the working hours can go very high. 2. Frequent changes in teams based on requirements as the company is still majorly project based.
