Pros
- It seems that everyone is bought into the Octopus vision and wants to make a different to the planet - There are some incredibly bright people here and the people I'm working with are really helpful and have given a lot of time to helping me understand the product - I've been given some massive customers to manage, so it's great to feel that confidence in me from my manager - Small things like free food, free hygiene products in the toilets, staff classes (yoga, painting etc.) and free Friday beer show that the company cares about its employees - The technology used here really is on another level to the competition, particularly Kraken - Friday Family Dinners (basically an all-company meeting on Fridays at 4pm) are always well attended, informative and generally very funny, as Greg likes to have a laugh and put people at ease - The offices are great and a lot of people work from them
Cons
- It's very minor, but as a non-technical person working in a tech company, the induction was a bit dev-heavy in parts (and therefore well over my head), but I passed on that feedback, so that may change in future.
