Pros

People are nice but not smart. Go there if u are a fresh graduate and u need working experience.

Cons

My manager did micro management to us which made everyone so stressful in the team. They laid off lots of people without replacing them and forced the rest of the team to pick up the stuff. You will be assigned to do extra works that are totally out of scope. Their benefit, bonus, pay were getting worse so lots of people left the company. They hired people who were cheap but not able to do their jobs well. There was no career progression or development in this company. The office location was bad so they could only hire people who live in West London. Please avoid this company if you could.

Thank you for your review. We are glad to see the 5 stars and read that you had a good experience working at Hyperoptic. Thank you as well for the feedback on bonuses and salary, it's important to us to know what employee and former employees think should be improved. We do have an annual salary review process, designed to ensure fair remuneration based on job performance and market standards. However, not every review results in an increase, as it depends on various factors that are defined for each review cycle. The same it is for the bonus, which is based on performance. Thanks again for your review, the Culture and Engagement Team

Pros

Shared workload, good hours, easy to learn network

Cons

Poor career progression, management don't listen to complaints or issues, a "seniority is always right" attitude that doesn't encourage collaboration or ideas

We have rolled out a lot of work across the engineering workforce focused on bringing clarity on career pathways and what needs to happen to make that progression. Our culture is very much focused on working smarter. together which means sharing feedback, working on problem solving together so its not pleasing to hear your comments around ideas being discouraged.
