Pros
This Programme has provided an amazing opportunity to join the UKs leading fixed communications infrastructure provider. It has facilitated insight across the business and a supported programme for personal and professional development. There is the expectation that we add immediate value to the organisation and we have been given the freedom to use our previous experience to focus on business improvement. Openreach people are great; inherently positive, helpful and professional; it is a truly collaborative culture. The role comes with good pay and benefits and there is fantastic opportunity for career progression.
Cons
It would be disingenuous to raise fault here. The role was a change in sector for me and there is significant technical detail to absorb quickly but that is a exciting challenge. My experience has been wholly positive and enjoyable.
