BT Radianz Reviews

Pros

Great learning environment, good management, great launching pad for career, people are willing to help,

Cons

Review process is skewed and sometimes recognition is given to the loudest players, not the most technical.
Fair amount of office politics for certain groups within the company, but other groups are ok. Office politics is typical in any company though.

Advice to Senior Management

ds

Pros

It is a big company and has a good brand name and offers good paid vacation (4wks).

Cons

Incompetent senior management. It operates under heavy bureaucracy and I am not sure how customers can be satisfied with the services thiscompany offers.

Advice to Senior Management

Need more competent management teams than those who only dream and talk but can't accomplish nothing.

Pros

It's a good place to bridge the gap between the ISP and financial services world for networking technologies. People are friendly, helpful and quite smart. Management are very supportive when you need time off.

Cons

Some of the work can feel quite repetitive - doing the same thing day in and day out. BT have also made a mess of integrating the Radianz organisation - it's still not clear what direction staff can go in the wider organisation. Contractors form a major part of many teams, and they often don't know whether or not they will be renewed which causes issues every few weeks for the permanent staff who don't know whether or not they will be dealing with a new person in a couple of weeks.

Advice to Senior Management

Communicate a lot better with the teams about the integration - remember none of us have had the proper "Welcome to BT induction" and it might be worth communicating properly about career development.
