Pros

I like working at Octopus Energy for a lot of reasons. 1. Everyone is aligned in the mission of renewable energy. 2. As employees we are empowered to do the right thing for not just the company but for each other. We are encouraged to have a good work/life balance, and it's not uncommon for people to take "reset days" to recharge and come back stronger. 3. The work is fun and challenging, and we are not stuck in one position. If you want to try something new, that we avoid siloing means that people can try other roles.

Cons

We're working on increasing our diversity, especially on the technical side of things. We're always on the lookout for more people from marginalized groups.

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.
