Pros

The people are amazing. Made so many friends here and most of the time, the energy is high in the office, creating a great vibe. Great incentives such as vouchers, etc. A great place for a so al life outside of work. Good work/life balance. Really good with mental health and understanding if someone is ill, or needs time off for personal reasons. Free food - amazing food too! Breakfast and lunch, Incredible office.

Cons

Shocking procedures. Things changes literally by the day. Big things, such as commission, procedures that we’ve already told customers, etc. you can think your taking home a good amount of money (that you’ve worked for), only for it to be taken off you due to a high up decision to change the structure with immediate effect. Barely any leads to work with. Sometimes weeks with literally no work. Management tell you what you want to hear, but not always the truth. Gets very toxic when the chips are down.

Pros

- I've worked for a lot of companies that claim to care for their employees but at Octopus I feel the company backs that up with support that suits the individual and being able to make decisions that actually help. - Freedom and responsibility to make your own decisions. - Able to support customers with outside of the box solutions without all of the guidelines that make it hard to treat people as individuals. - Competitive salaries, with lots of opportunity for progression. - Fun offices that encourage creative thinking - A place where you can be yourself and aren't pressured to fit into a box.

Cons

- Whilst it's great being able to make the right decisions for individuals it can make it difficult for people who work in certain ways not having set guidelines.
