UK&I are currently looking for Identity and Access management people though, there is no work.
The UK&I head is clueless and they have already lost several valuable members. No experienced SailPoint or Ping specialists.
A complete joke!!

I've seen zero evidence of cross training in the pod. Wintel is wintel, storage is storage, unix is unix etc etc
It might have worked if they hadn't slashed staff numbers to point at which people barely have time to get their own work done, let alone teach or be taught.
Only to be expected though, its quite obvious that no plan can succeed unless its delivered in the same quarter as its launched AND directly increases revenue.
ML has gotta get his bonus... maybe he could buy a new suit, one that fits.
The POD basically means onsite teams doing technical work, initially it was based on small teams broken down into technical disciplines. Now the teams are expanding.
The theory is you have tier 2 broken down by wintel unix storage desktop cloud etc and then tier 3 broken down again at those levels. However the main selling point of the pod is that you have staff who are well versed in all aspects of the technical disciplines and not limited to any one.
And you pay them a standard amount and not have pay fluctuate by in demand disciplines.
The advantage for the employee is that you can get to learn a lot and not find yourself restricted to one discipline.
For those of not versed in legacy CSC lore, what is the POD?
If your legacy CSC then every function is being moved into the POD. I'm in cloud and considering it's a growth area they are disbanding the team and moving people into other teams.
