      Pros

      Management are very supportive and always there for guidance which is especially helpful as this is a Field based role. The organisation goes through lots of change but the senior leadership team are great at communicating what they can to help understanding. There are lots of learning and development opportunities and access to training courses. The benefits are brilliant including amazing paternity leave which is hard to come by.

      Cons

      Workload can be busy at times but its management with the right support and planning.

      Pros

      Lots of good people who want to do well and are supportive, good salary and benefits.

      Cons

      - Lots of good people here, but Virgin Media O2 are flogging an old model and just not competing any longer in a very tough market. Senior leadership really need to read the room and get serious about the commercial model and pricing, else this business may cease to exist in 10 years - the time is now... Stop wasting time & money on needless projects and products. Focus on making a core set of products great, which also represent real value for customers - Regular restructures that are not well managed or communicated - Lots of male egos at a senior level, and much time is wasted pandering to them - Little female representation at director level and above - the company makes the right noises about this but I've seen little change in this respect - Generally feels a little like it's "who you know" with leadership - Backtracked on remote-friendly culture and moved to a 2 day a week hybrid model, but this isn't great with a widely-dispersed team. It makes life hard for those that don't live in London.

      Pros

      8 days a month in the office, a nicer hybrid approach than what most offer. Friendly people Nice office in London

      Cons

      Doesn’t go for all senior leaders but I have heard some SLT and EC talk badly about their colleagues and it’s uncomfortable to hear them do this. Can’t challenge them because you’ll be on the hit list next. Politics is real and if you don’t suck up to them you’re not valued. Want more and more and more from you with no remuneration to compensate for that. PAs often treated like punching bags to take the brunt and frustrations of senior leaders and aren’t appreciated enough… Benefits could definitely be better We could do more centrally to celebrate work milestones No progression
