Pros

The people there. Salary and commission was good

Cons

The management is awful and they dont know what they’re doing. They try to sack you if they dont personally like you and the sales manager will manipulate certain things to make it look like it wasn’t personal

Hello, Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and feedback. I’m sorry to hear that your experience with us wasn’t what you were expecting and you couldn’t find your home within the Octopus team. We take your allegation very seriously, and we would encourage you to reach out to me directly (emily.hall@octoenergy.com), or another member of the leadership team that you feel comfortable with. This is not something we are familiar with, and will be investigating further due to the serious nature I can see that you didn’t enjoy the leadership experiences you had specifically which is a shame to hear. As Octopus is a rapidly growing, fast paced environment and we love promoting from within, we have many new and emerging leaders whom we support through their journey, this can mean that not everyone's journey is the same and there are challenges with that. We’ll absolutely take your feedback onboard and look to understand how we can support our teams and learn from experiences. We are currently investing in our leadership team with support, training and upskilling so that everyone is equipped to be a great leader, no matter where they are in their journey. It’s great to see that one of the positives you mentioned are the people we have within Octopus. We are very proud of the team we have built here and so glad that it has had a lasting impact on you and your time within the team. I wish you all the best in your future endeavours and thank you for your time and effort when you were with us.

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.
