Ntl probably thinks that by doing this it will have less of a bad taste with the customers. Lets face it there would be blue murder if they announced that they were going to make X amount of engineers redundant. This way they know that its not going to be there problem.
NTL will be a management company within 3 years. I am willing to make a bet that within 3 years 90% of there engineering staff with be outsourced.
