Would you care to elaborate? I'm pretty well infomed and I've heard nothing. Yes we have a new CFO but I not heard anything about any large scale redundancies.

With all due respect Escapee, you've banging on about how crap VM is for years, despite not having worked for them for 8 years.

Granted in 2001 it wasn't good, the telecoms crash, the acquisition of C&W. It's been tough for everyone in the years since, but now (I believe) the company has passed the bottom of the curve some time ago. The atmosphere within the business is better than I can ever remember.

It's not perfect, far from it, but the company is no where near as bad as it was at the start of the decade.
