Optum is a great place to work as fresher. When you are experienced there is not much to learn and at one time your career you will feel stagnant. Gain some experience in Optum and then switch to different company for further growth. For those who don't want pressure and want job security and comfort zone then staying with the company will be the best option for you.

Dislikes

...Less pay-scale according to work

Flexibility, easy leaves policy. Good retirement company.

Dislikes

Several late night meetings that go upto midnight usually. 20% variable pay. Extreme politics. Top heavy, tremendously crowded org structure. Too many reports, every 6 months people are realigned. No levers for management to keep people rewarded and motivated due to cost cutting (no travel, no bonus, no ESOP, no increments). Slow: They take 6 months to close 1 appraisal cycle! Fundamentals of functional working are not as per industry best practices, too much unlearning required to be able to work here. People generally tell lies, are very audacious and do not seem motivated to work here. Lack of vision, lack of ownership. No increments. It is a Fortune 8 org but don't assume at par compensation.

Optum has a slow paced work environment, which helps you focus on your personal life and goals so you dont have to overwork as in the case of other technology firms

Dislikes

There’s a company wide policy of extremely low hikes and pay grade. The company is not good for your personal and career growth.
