What is the feeling of job security at Hyperoptic?

People are great, you'll find some amazing colleagues both in the UK and Serbia Great worklife balance and flexibility

Rarely any progression unless your based in Serbia Rarely any opportunities for development- even when you ask Persistent redundancies so not much job security regardless of where you are in the business

Great company, great people, caring company, a company that listens to its staff and you are a name not a number.

Job security when approaching end of project.

This goes without saying, but most of the coworkers are lovely genuine people who will become your friends sooner than you can imagine. Team-work is strong and whenever you need help, someone is there to help you. Salary is on time.

People with little to no results are promoted and nobody really knows why, making the management really hard to respect. For the past year+ in CS, with the arrival of new management, there has been a really unhealthy atmosphere in the team, causing anyone who critiques any new initiatives to be ostracized, it's gone so far that team leaders aren't even asked for their opinion anymore, but everything is run by a few people with extremely limited knowledge and/or management expertise. There is a history of talking in a negative way about other colleagues with lower level employees, undermining other agents, managers or team leaders. About 10 cases are known of this happening, but HR refuses to do anything about this until mobbing charges are raised. They will only discuss things behind closed doors with no record of conversations, probably to save themselves from legal repercussions down the line. Seniority doesn't really grant you any rights. You will receive a 0% increase in your yearly salary review, with no real explanation why that is. They will tell you that feedback and the salary review are not mandatory. They will tell you that you're not a key player, but will not explain why you're not a key player. Budgets and benefits are being cut left and right, and there are rumors going around that the company is to be sold in the near future. Many people have been fired both in Serbia and the UK and essentially nobody is safe, if you're looking for a stable company, skip this one. Tools used to support the service are picked because they're cheap, not because they fit our workload best, leading to a billion problems usually taking months to fix. There's a massive cultural issue where Serbian employees are essentially considered lesser beings to their UK counterparts. There is 0 investment in people. If you're looking for learning, courses, seminars, forget about it, you will not find it here. If you're selected to conduct interviews, and it's your first time, you're just expected to know how to do it. If you're selected to manage a team, and it's your first time managing one, you're just expected to know how to do it.

People are nice but not smart. Go there if u are a fresh graduate and u need working experience.

My manager did micro management to us which made everyone so stressful in the team. They laid off lots of people without replacing them and forced the rest of the team to pick up the stuff. You will be assigned to do extra works that are totally out of scope. Their benefit, bonus, pay were getting worse so lots of people left the company. They hired people who were cheap but not able to do their jobs well. There was no career progression or development in this company. The office location was bad so they could only hire people who live in West London. Please avoid this company if you could.

None at all. Really, there aren't any!

Managers do nothing and earn huge salary and bonuses. Engineers do all the work and get treated badly. All engineers in London will lose their jobs. As they're giving then to subcontractors

You may finish early on some day Engineers here are some of the most amazing people you'll meet.

Management is useless, you'll be thrown left, right and center between departments. They will use you and abuse you then throw you out themselves or make you so fed up that you leave yourself. Managers are rude and swear at staff openly and are surprised if pulled up on it. P.s. all engineering work is being phased out to contractors. All engineers will lose their jobs.
