now that I have your attention, could I please have some sensible comments against thread 57737 (E&Y Defence...)i'm resorting to this tactic becuase it seems this forum is fixated by PAthanks

Well put anon. I am sick of the obsession a small number of people on here have with PA. I have given up trying to get useful career advice on here for that very reason.

All talk of PA should be banned from this website. It has been established, beyond doubt, that PA is not a good place to work. Enough already

Well you could always be selective in what you choose to read.But that depends upon the original poster having a sensible choice of subject header...

This is just another one of the PA cheerleaders trying to squash any criticism of company management.Pathetic, really

When over 100 people have been affected over the last year by PA's tactics, whether transparent or not, it does seem appropriate that those on the inside and now some people on the outside want to warn the rest of the world.PA used to be a good ethical company and morally correct but now seem to have lost their way on both counts. Even the recent payoffs were not much higher than the statutory minimums and the recent number of staff placed on new PIPs, just because they need to have people on PIPs, is an indication of a process that it used to get rid of people without having to pay redundancy or any other form of compensatory payments.It will only be a matter of time before the next round of cuts comes.
