Re: Contractors

Beller, i can see your point also, its a difficult one! I dont think anything will change with fujitsu, as far as i can see it started off like it was going to be better, but has very quickly deteriorated back to the way it was before. Every day now there are more guys saying they not happy and feel they were lied to, so a lot distrust building day by day

Watch this space!

Re: Contractors

And it's all because the middle management hasn't changed. There is no support for technicians out in the field. The managers attitude is Get it working no matter what. Then when the **** hits the fan there is no support from the manager or virgin media and the tech gets grilled all because he was told to break the rules.

Re: Contractors

go before its too late u will never be paid a resonable wage,whilst big comapanys cut each throats and rates to do this contract,the bottom line is they will still make a tidy profit but you will make their shortfall out of your pocket,FTel are not the super fantastic company who have great work ethics for all thier staff,bottom line profit and bonuses
