Nice working environment

Indeed Featured review

The most useful review selected by Indeed
The management is very easy to work with. Very good compensation and salary package as well. There is career growth in this company. The only downside is that offshore clients can be a bit demanding.

Overall good company but

Optum is good company for starters. Yearly increase is guaranteed, but it doesn’t add up to much. I’ve been with the company for 6 years with outstanding performance but most of the increase were 3%. Mgt stated it’s because I’m already earning maximum incentive per month (about 5k plus).

High paying for IT Positions

Agent IT positions such as Help Desk is already at par with Team Leads from Voice departments. Information Risk Analysts or departments specific in IT, agent/analyst level is already at par with Operations Managers salary in voice departments.

worst company, exploitation at its finest.

At the outset, the company appeared to be very supportive, particularly towards students. However, the overall experience heavily relies on the assigned manager. In my case, my time at the company was rather unpleasant due to a manager displaying tendencies of power control and excessively demanding overtime work.Managers should acknowledge that their team's success directly benefits them. To foster a successful team, they should lead by example, be actively present, and consistently appreciate the team's efforts, no matter how small. Using manipulation and gaslighting will never lead to genuine improvement. I'm just so glad i didn't pushed through with the promotion of being a trainer. So happy to be finally out of this company.

Toxic environment

They only care about the metrics. Company doesn't care about the well being of the employees. Job description doesn't match the workload and no compensation for it. No OT pay. Also, they didn't give the whole Milestone bonus.

Good benefits but work was challenging

Good benefits but work was challenging. The process itself is tedious and time consuming making it impossible to meet the quota for the day. However, quota can be waived for valid reasons.

High Salary than other BPO

Inhouse BPO in PH. Pay and benefits are great. I have seen my former teammates getting promoted. They have retirement fund now . As any other BPO, strict on lates and attendance.

Good company

Optum is one of the best BPOs right now in terms of benefits. Working environment depends on the account that you'll be assigned to. Just be attentive during training, don't hesitate to ask questions if you're confused with the product training.

I have to commend the supervisors and trainers in optum.

I've been with this company for 2 years and i experienced all the the upskilling real quick after I was endorsed to live prod. the work load is ridiculous but the salary is stagnant. they will push you to your limits but not in a rewarding way. but all in all i stayed there because of of my supervisor because i dont want him to be stressed a lot of the employees chose to leave because of the constant upskilling and heavy volume of calls.

Pros

Amazing supervisors, Qvc, Training team

Cons

Workload is ridiculous, stagnant salary, no wfh, politics

Stressful management low salary

I was transferred to retro claims and the management wasn’t really good. Manager didn’t really apply equal benefits to the different teams. Workload is stressful.

Toxic management

Politics everywhere. No empathy to employees. If you're not close to higher management you will not be promoted. They always upgrade the skill of thier agent but no salary increase. Too much pressure
