Optimum 7 Reviews

Hello, Thank you for your review. I will try to respond. 1- Monitoring and Micromanagement: We do not monitor our employees. There are no cameras or computer monitoring software in our offices. I'm not sure what you mean by that. We do monitor the billables as well as the efficiency of our staff. We do not micromanage our staff. However, we do set objectives and expectations and follow through with them for personal and company growth. If you call that micromanagement, I will have to accept responsibility for always pushing ourselves and our team to do better. 2- Unprofessional Conduct: I'm not sure what this means. 3- Unreal estimates: Estimates are given based on averages we have for projects over a period of time. (Usually 18 months) If a team member is not able to finish a project within that time frame, he or she might need more experience or training, which we do provide. 4- Project Management: We use JIRA and Confluence as well as Podio for Project Management. If you contact me, I will be happy to share our processes with you as well as the average billable and efficiency for our current team members. 5- Opinions: We always want feedback and actually encourage it. I'm sorry that you feel this way. Please contact me and I will be happy to listen to your feedback since it is extremely important for us. 6- Promises and Wishes: Again, please contact me and I promise to listen, respond and do whatever I can to address the problem. 7- Computers: I was not aware of this. If you had contacted me, I would take care of this. I'm sorry you had a negative experience. We are not perfect but we are always working on getting better. I would appreciate if you could contact me in person so I can address your issues. You can email or WhatsApp me. Duran Inci CEO

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We take every review seriously as we continually strive to improve as an organization. However, I feel it’s important to clarify a few points for transparency. At our company, we provide all team members with clear KPIs and expectations that align with our business goals. Unfortunately, in this case, there was a failure to meet those KPIs. Rather than focusing on the core responsibilities of your HR role, you frequently diverted attention to areas that did not align with your objectives or contribute to the company’s overall direction. As a result, the environment became more strained, not because of leadership, but due to your inability to focus on the tasks required of you. Ignoring key communications and disappearing during work hours directly hindered team progress. In any organization, but especially in a fast-paced for-profit one like ours, communication and accountability are essential. This isn't a government or nonprofit setting where opinions on "what should happen" take precedence over results. Here, we need to follow through on our agreed-upon direction and strategy. When I reached out to address these issues and you failed to respond during working hours, my message was clear: "Call me or send in your resignation." It’s easy to assign blame when things go wrong, but the reality is, responsibility and follow-through were consistently lacking on your part. We aren’t perfect, but without a solid plan and commitment to that plan, we cannot successfully operate or support our team. Accountability is non-negotiable in our organization. Going forward, we will continue to hire HR professionals who are dedicated to fostering a positive and productive work environment while meeting their responsibilities. We wish you success in your future roles. P.S: "Get out before the burnout hits you." The fact that you ended the review with this statement speaks volumes about the attitude you brought to the table. Respectfully, it’s a reflection of your approach to both the role and the responsibilities you chose to neglect. Sincerely, Duran Inci CEO
