Pros

Ocado Technology never fails to bore. With projects ranging from robotics, custom wireless protocols, highly performant real-time control software and industry leading e-commerce sites and mobile apps, there is something for everyone. Everyone is afforded a generous amount of autonomy and there is next to no red tape. Somehow, even with about 1000 technology employees, it still feels like a start-up, such is the level of constant innovation and evolution.

Cons

Ocado Technology is hugely ambitious. With a lack of employees to achieve everything we'd like to, this can sometimes translate to frustration. In addition, the broad range of projects and disciplines leads to a technology department which sometimes feels disjointed and siloed, despite the best efforts of the management team.

Thanks for taking the time to write a review, and thanks for the great feedback about the culture and tech. Looking at your Cons comment, we are hiring at a very fast rate so hopefully you'll start to notice some of these pressures ease soon.

Pros

There are some really motivating projects at Ocado, including open source project for education Code For Life and innovative technology, as well as a good culture thanks to the brilliant and awesome people we get to know and to work with here. Autonomy and flexibility really help foster innovation, and we have regular team building events. The new office in Trident place is really good too.

Cons

The location, Hatfield, is for me the biggest drawback because it's a bit isolated compared to bigger cities and usually makes for a long commute.
