I am obviously not pro-ntl, then on the other hand I am not anti-ntl!

I guess most would label me as anti-ntl because I have a go at ntl, but I worked for ntl and received some rough treatment along with many others who are still working for the company and being treated even worse now.

My main issues with ntl are not customer related but with poor management, useless people getting on in the company and the big niggle of non-technical people ie: CS types now taking control of all the technical issue at regional level and ex-CS people being given technical management positions and making a hash of it in the process!

I think most ntl employees who visit this site would probably not even know about the issues that I am talking about because the majority of ntl posters appear to be from CS or other desk jobs, the only technical/network ones that I can think of are from national teams and not local ones.
Very often the national peoples views and apparent happyness are very different from the guys at a local level.

I still have some friends in ntl and the volunteers they had for the recent redundancies in one department says it all really.
