Yeah, right

Siemens Bracknell includes a call centre. Seems to be about right, the guys doing the work there are barely trained monkeys running of a badly written script adding a new Dehli accent isn't going to make much of a difference to end user services. I have worked for a service partner and I have so say, it's a shame to see jobs lost but their consumer products, especially the desktops, we can do without. Siemens are committed to checking the boxes at minimum cost without considering for what that *really* means for customers,

@AC

Bracknell has no call centre anymore. All the 1st line teams are pretty much in Maidenhead, Durham and Manilla. They've just spereately sacked 35 from the BBC's Bristol office, as it cheaper to employ 20 northeners in place of them!

Mine's the one with the redundancy letter in the pocket...
