Don't bother! Bad company culture, slow growth, and low pay

Practitioner (Former Employee) - Calgary, AB - 1 February 2020

Indeed featured review

The most useful review selected by Indeed

This company is constantly hiring for clinic locations that do not have an immediate need for a practitioner. You are expected to bring in clients on your own, which is very difficult when you are just starting to build your professional network at a new job. So unless you are bringing all of your previous clients with you, you will be struggling for a very long time. New grads especially need to be weary! You will not be making enough money to support yourself while working here, unless you happen to be taking over for a very busy practitioner who is leaving the company and all their previous clients. New grads will be charmed by the large size of this company and the promises made about rapidly growing your practice through all the wonderful opportunities that will be available to you. It's all a smoke screen! Their information nights and outreach events are poorly designed and carried out. Growth is very slow at this company, with very little tangible results. The established practitioners (who have been at the company 10+ years) are not collaborative or helpful to new practitioners - they see you as competition rather than as colleagues. There is also a lot of internal drama that you are not told about, until it somehow makes its way to you. When you ask head office for help/guidance to grow your client base or to deal with the drama you've walked into, you are not given any useful advice or tools. They will print you as many business materials as you want, but as far as mentoring or guidance - there is none. This company also has a high turnover rate - both practitioners -

Great Team of People

Great team of people working at Optimum. I have had great experiences with both practitioners and head office staff. There is a lot of flexibility when you work at Optimum and this gives you a great way to start in building a practice.
