Pros

Cons
National Grid do not understand what they have taken on: they think they can run an engineering company-a specialist engineering company no less- with “people managers” with no industry experience whatsoever. Then leave all the high level engineering based decisions they should be making to the many experienced yet overworked and underpaid engineers who are already heading for the exit door in droves, only to then take the credit. Frittering ridiculous amounts of money on things like DEI but pleading poverty when it comes to equipment or tools to do the job. Slowly chipping away at terms and conditions to try and get more for less out of the ever dwindling staff numbers.
