OPTOMI EARNS CHARLOTTE BUSINESS JOURNAL BEST PLACE TO WORK AWARD
November 11, 2022

We are thrilled to announce that our Charlotte team has made the Charlotte Business Journal’s Best Place to Work list! This list represents the best of the best in the Charlotte region that offer a remarkable culture, great benefits, and have engaged employees.

Alexandra Williams, a Senior Account Executive in Charlotte, spoke about the origins of the office opening and how leadership has really taken their passion for culture and ran with it. “Having people in leadership roles lead the culture committees for the whole organization is really special because when you have someone from the top really instill a culture, it’s going to stem down. That’s where it all begins,” said Alexandra. “We have people who have just joined the company wanting to be a part of something bigger and get involved in more than just their day to day jobs.”

The culture in Charlotte is truly unmatched. The environment our team has created is one to remember. “We are a family. We celebrate professional success and milestones with one another, but we also celebrate one another on a personal level. We have housewarming parties and baby showers for husbands and wives who are married to someone at Optomi and we celebrate them and welcome a new baby into the home. We have wedding showers, we go to the beach together, we travel…we choose to spend time with one another. It’s a choice, but it’s because of the people that Optomi hires,” said Senior Account Executive Tyler Sheltra.

This award is especially honorable as the honorees are chosen based on a third-party survey that the team must provide feedback on. Thank you to our dedicated team in Charlotte for honoring us with this award. We would not be here without your genuine spirits and exceptional culture.

A Fortune 500 utilities company faced several challenges with running its Cyber Security Operations Center (CSOC). After evaluating the situation with their prior managed security service provider (MSSP), the client realized the MSSP did not have the appropriate access or authorization to investigate alerts off-site. This was extremely important for the client as they had multiple security protocols in place, meaning that investigations of alerts and escalations required on-site authorization or full-time employee (FTE) access. The client also struggled with retention and did not have effective methods to find quality candidates that fit the culture of their organization.

A Fortune 500 software and technology company was struggling with executing an organizational shift to user and product-focused initiatives.

For 20 years, a multinational healthcare services company relied on the outsourcing support of a managed services provider to fulfill their hiring needs. Upon evaluating the deal later on, the client learned that not only were they overspending on resources, but that they lacked all contract proprietary rights. They did not own any of the documentation or standard operating procedures in place in their own company, handcuffing them to their old vendor.
