Pros

Disclaimer - this is a genuine, super positive review based on real experience so if you're looking for a negative you may wish to move on. Legitimately the warmest team I've ever been a part of. The interview process was super slick and all the people I met throughout that journey radiated what the culture would be like at OEV from the jump. Since being in the role, every person I have met so far has been a wonderful experience, particularly coming from an atypical sales background, where people being nice you question their motive. However, there is absolutely no agenda to any of these people except a willingness to pull together and help each other develop the best they can. All of the Sales Team Managers have been unbelievably willing to offer their time, the Head of Activation has been open, candid and welcoming throughout and the wider business too which only leads to an incredible experience. I've seen the odd poor reviews on here, I can assure you reading this, it is wholly the opposite to the experience I have seen. In all walks of life you come across people where everyone else is to blame for anything and everything... I get that vibe from the feedback compared to what my eyes have actually seen. I'm revelling in excitement for where this journey will take me and having confidence in the fact that this company does things for the right reason aligns with what I believe and you should too.

Cons

I'll let you know if something comes up.

Pros

The office is as good as it gets; lots of friendly people, great amenities (free tea and coffee), snacks and healthy food options. Also great perks too!

Cons

Smaller teams tend not to be recognised as much, but things develop so quickly at the company that this can change. Being part of a small team actually creates a really tightly knit connections with great people. Lots of lateral movement opportunities, but not always opportunities for upward progression.
