Pros

Lots of good people who want to do well and are supportive, good salary and benefits.

Kontras

- Lots of good people here, but Virgin Media O2 are flogging an old model and just not competing any longer in a very tough market. Senior leadership really need to read the room and get serious about the commercial model and pricing, else this business may cease to exist in 10 years - the time is now... Stop wasting time & money on needless projects and products. Focus on making a core set of products great, which also represent real value for customers - Regular restructures that are not well managed or communicated - Lots of male egos at a senior level, and much time is wasted pandering to them - Little female representation at director level and above - the company makes the right noises about this but I've seen little change in this respect - Generally feels a little like it's "who you know" with leadership - Backtracked on remote-friendly culture and moved to a 2 day a week hybrid model, but this isn't great with a widely-dispersed team. It makes life hard for those that don't live in London.
