So today a few of our esteemed leaders came down to Chorley...
Couple of things worth sharing...
It’s was boring, dull, drab, copied slides and just all round repetitive bull sh-- for 1 hour
They must have made angreement to nod when either one answered the question
The HR guy gave you a business update... like when was the last time you saw HR talking about growth strategies and wonga?
Nothing forthcoming in the form of improvements for employees. No training. No rises.
Facebook is the future, sorry workplace. They can’t be arsed sending you comms so will post on there, if you can’t be arsed joining the UKIIMEA group on Facebook then tough sh--. Oh and a manager who I won’t name... part of the inner circle didn’t realise that he was on the wrong Facebook group for UKIIMEA.
It’s all digital now, not cloud, not next gen, not app modernisation. Digital means that we will get more cuts, and eventually end up with no staff but more consultancy type roles.
They admitted they can’t compete with AWS or Azure, so they will onboard their client to sign up to the big boys, whilst conceding that we will end up doing the sh-- old gen work because our clients not only won’t trust us, but also that we can’t give them what they want.
In housing is the future, most of their big logos have in housed.
UK is in major decline, best case scenario is flat line by Q4.
They will sign two new logos tomorrow, good news for Erskine and other northerners.
To summarise, present is sh--, future will be sh--ter. Even more so if your in the north west.
PS they could do away with Chorley if they can get BAE to agree a move to Warrington.
