Hi there, Thanks for taking the time to leave this review. It's great to hear you understand the value and focus on teamwork at Octopus. Also, I'm delighted you're getting an opportunity to gain more responsibility in your role. This is key to your growth and success and that's why the majority of this extra responsibility goes to our existing team. At Octopus, everyone is a business owner/shareholder and we try to balance fair pay together with creating great learning and development opportunities. This is all supported by an equity scheme that truly shares the value we create in Octopus. We've already seen the value in that this year. You should feel really comfortable talking about pay with your manager and if you think your pay isn't fair, absolutely raise it, so we can either help get that sorted or explain the reasons why it is where it is. Thanks for your continued work and dedication! Cheers, James Doyle

Pros

very forward thinking company with great attitudes towards looking after customers and staff alike . Focused on making an impactful difference in the energy industry and its approach to green and renewable energy. Brilliant modern approach towards training making it very inclusive, interesting and fun!

Cons

Long recruitment process but stick with it! It can feel like a lengthy process but it's worth it at the end, they really make an effort to employ people they think will be good at the role and are incredibly diverse and inclusive. In training they chuck you in at the deep end but you're never alone and they constantly stress and that mistakes are good as you can learn from them, they say "get stuck in as we can fix any problem" so don't be afraid!
