Pros

This is a fantastic place to work – I can't see myself ever leaving because my role evolves all the time, I get a huge amount of trust to try new things, I feel genuinely proud every day of what this company does, and I get to work with awesome people who care about what they do.

Cons

Our CEO Greg talks about the culture of Octopus a lot on the company podcast and what he says is true: you get a huge amount of freedom and autonomy to work how you want, but that means you're given a lot of responsibility as well. It can be a lot of pressure, so make sure that's the kind of environment that will work for you.

Pros

Some members of the company are the best people you’ll ever meet.

Cons

Genuinely a complete mess. Incompetent, passive aggressive leadership that repeatedly makes both poor and confusing company decisions. I have some absolutely crazy stories from things I’ve witnessed here. There’s things that are so bizarre and dysfunctional, they belong in an alternate reality.
