Pros

The main reason to come work for Optimy, apart from its vision, is the colleagues. The collegiality is something that is seldom found elsewhere. Everyone from C-level down to interns are incredibly hospitable and warm. As for the role, being a Product Owner at Optimy (as any other job) has its own challenges, but you grow so much and you're really given the chance to explore.

Cons

While the onboarding process for sales and CS is very extensive, it does lack in other departments. Because it is a scale-up, there is some pressure. However, priorities do need to be managed better so that the pressure doesn't accumulate.

Pros

Fair compensation, good product, great industry to sell into. There is a huge opportunity to make an impact both within the company as well as benefiting the world. Lots of autonomy to do your work and find your path to success. This comes with a high bar for results and extreme ownership.

Cons

Working with the main team in Europe has its challenges (eg. time zone, market differences, culture, etc) but there is more autonomy. With autonomy, you really have to own your own success and you cannot blame others for your lack of results.
