Pros

nothing I can think of, honestly.

Cons

- A lot of harassment, bullying and undermining. - Micromanagement to extreme. - Calls every five minutes. - Whatever you do, it does not matter how well you do it. What matters is whether you are liked. And being liked does not depend on how nice or competent you are. It depends on how threatened your line manager feels about not losing their position to you. this was the case for me. - You are probably going to feel lonely here. - Not a friendly atmosphere. - I found spending days in this company was the best recipe for depression. - you might be called on your phone just to be shouted at for no reason, I was. No apologies were given. - been called many disrespectful names. No action was taken. Retract your application to save your sanity. My best advice.

We would really like to arrange a conversation with you to investigate this and take appropriate action. Please email your HR Business partner and be assured any information you provide will be kept in confidence.

Pros

What I prefer about Ocado is the people in it. Very smart and always supportive of each others! The company gives us a lot of trust which leaves us with a lot of autonomy to work.

Cons

Since there is now an Office in London, there are very few Cons in my view. I sometimes find that there is a bit too much to do for the time I have.
