OLIO Reviews

Pros

OLIO is one of the best companies I have ever worked at. Despite being a remote-first company, I always feel very connected to both my immediate colleagues and to the rest of the company. Our flexible working policy is truly flexible, and I always feel like OLIO truly cares about me, my mental wellbeing, and my career progression. It is a pleasure to work alongside a team of such talented, caring, and mission-driven individuals.

Cons

We’re going through a lot of change at the moment which can be overwhelming at times. Also, it’s a minor point, but it would also be great if our employer pension contributions were a bit more than the legally required minimum!

Pros

Fantastically geared and structured for remote working. Inclusive and extremely mission driven by the end goal. Incredible team with a "walk-the-talk" attitude top down.

Cons

No cons to talk about.

Pros

- Mission-driven community - everyone is so committed. - Autonomy, trust, responsibility offered. - Roles can be dynamic, open depending on need. - Fun, communal work culture - Transparency on structure and developments

Cons

- Start​-up - some processes still coming. - Not yet got clear org-wide development / progression framework.

Pros

- Brilliant team - smart and kind people - Fantastic founders - Flexible remote working - Fantastic mission - Best job I have ever had :)

Cons

I can't think of any.....! Before I would have said 'no office to connect with people in person' but we now have a solution for this as we are using Hubble for access to co-working spaces

Pros

The mission How inspiring the founders are How involved are the founders in the day-to-day The empathy and kindness of the whole team Ambition to grow and generate much more impact To be able to work in a company aligned to my purpose and to what really matters to me

Cons

Honestly, nothing. Maybe sometimes I feel it would be nice to have an office and work in person together with my team.

I have been working here for around 18 months now and it's a genuine joy to be working with a team of helpful, driven and hugely capable people. Everyone is working towards the same goals and this manifests itself in deep collaboration and a real sense of succeeding as a team.

Cons

Fast growth means lots of change, which can be overwhelming

Honestly, the most fulfilling, rewarding, exciting and mission-driven role I've had to date. I've been astounded at how engaged and brilliant everyone I've met in the team is and impressed at how important mental health and a good work/life balance is to the company.

We're growing rapidly so right now we're a little under-resourced.
