Gotta love management speak
"consolidation and rationalization of management teams, support functions, product portfolios and system"
Aka. "sacking people".
Just as one source of tension at BT ends, with unionized workers voting to accept the latest pay offer rather than to extend industrial action, the British telco giant is merging Global and Enterprise divisions to save costs. The former state-owned monopoly confirmed it’s bringing together the B2B units, rebranding them as BT …
Nahhh - they are all on rolling contracts, the may have chopped him as soon as the decision was in for the unit merge - which would have been months ago. He will be kept for a while to do handover and possibly some bits and bobs and then will get whatevers left of his 12mths.
Still nice money by normal lights. I expect he's on £1.5m + ?
BT Group (the 'parent' company?) has just had a new logo... lots of randomly coloured, randomly placed stripes... think dodgy Freeview signal
Reminds me somewhat of the old(er) BT animated 'planet' logo that briefly demonstrated 'we work as one' by having the individual 'islands' all moving in different directions (I guess someone noticed and decided to stick with a static version shortly after)
By "arms length" they mean "in a headlock".
Oddly, for the last month there has been a team of "BT" fibre installers running fibre to the poles in the village, yet until last week neither BT nor Openreach claimed to be installing fibre here within the next year.
So maybe nobody has any idea what's going on at all.
