      Unfair Dismissal

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Decent office vibe in terms, such as a pool table and dart board

      Cons

      Constantly expecting you to go above beyond for very average pay, they started out nice then quickly turned into a toxic sales environment. Set targets for you then as soon as you hit them they move the goal post's, the commission structure moved every single month so no one knew what they would be earning from one week to the next. Promise to pass your probation if you hit certain targets then as soon as you hit them they pull you in a meeting and fire you and force you leave and don’t let you say goodbye to anyone.

While we believe in the approach we take, we appreciate that this didn’t come across for you personally, and we’ll reflect on your feedback to see where we can improve. Thanks again for being part of the Octo family, we wish you all the very best in what’s next. Ross Jones-Davies, Talent and People Operations
