[QUOTE=Escapee;34922828] those who once considered they had a career now just consider they have a job./[quote]
A very fair point, I must admit that "career" prospects in VM are not good. That said VM/NTL has always operated a flat management structure meaning that progressing up the managerial tree has always been difficult. They also have a terrible history of not promoting from within.
They are trying to address this by introducing a new career mapping program called pathfinder. Only time will tell if they are serious about this or just paying lip service.
That said, many in the current climate at this time of year will settle for a job at the moment, myself being one of them.

They are expecting redundancy to be just around the corner.

We have just been through the latest re-org and field engineering have been affected as have other areas of the business, but nothing like the scale of recent culls. At the moment at VM you're as safe as anywhere.

I do take my hat off to them for persistence, but also wonder why the capable ones have stuck it and keep taking the stress. I couldn't be doing with all the uncertainty and the regular 6 monthly re-orgs.

I guess a job there is a bit like being on death row.

In that case I've been on death row for 15years.
