BT Business Reviews

Likes

I've been with BT for a while now, and I can confidentely say that it is a fantastiv place to work, One of the standout features of the company is the strong emphasis on job security The work life balance here is exceptional, BT encourages employees to maintain healthy balance beetween there professional and personal lives. THe hybrid model gives flexibility to work from home

Dislikes

While there are some positive aspect of working with BT, there are signifificant drawback that deserve attention, One of the major issue is the management style, which can ofter feel egoistic, If you happen to have supportive manager, your experice can be positive, but if you're assigned to a less empathetic supervisor, it can drastically affest your work life balance and overall job satisfaction. The lack of consistent appraisal system is another cocern. Despite hard work and dedication, many employees fin that their contributions go inrecoganized, leading to frustration. Additionally the resigntation process is frustrating, it feels like management is indifferent, as no one bothers to ask why employees are leaving, instead, resignation seem to be accepted with minimal interaction or feedback, which diminishes the opportunity for constructive change, and you'll ask yourself that XX years of loyalty you've given to organisation who does not even bother. Annual survey, such as "YourSay", give employees a platform to coice their opinions but it often feel like feedback is ignored. Many employe resign due to issues with their manager yet management rarely addresses these concern. Instead of retaining experienced employees, they seem to priortize replacing them, leading to higher training cost and a continued cycle of toxic leadership. In Summary, while BT has its merits, the challanges with management, lack of meaningful recognition and ineffective feedback mechanism hinder it from being a truly great place to work. There's significant room for improvement, particularly in how management engages with and retains its employees....Read More

You get to work on latest technologies and concepts

Dislikes

Office Politics, lot of nonsense meetings, existing long timers behave as if they own a company. Leadership has no technical knowledge and show no empathy. They show empathy on only in writing e-mails. HR has no visibility in the team for any employee concerns.

Nothing much. If you want a back office job with no future endeavours, then go for it.

Dislikes

Zero work life balance in ground level operations. The senior departments will enjoy, while the ground level work will kill you.

I use to like it till they let me do the job without micro management ,the leadership became highly insecure with India taking and doing good work and they play politics at end

Dislikes

Highly political game at leadership level ,the UK folks are highly insecure if India does good ,they will go to any extent and move good guys out so no job security at senior level . They do not like Indians in mgmt level

You’ll get so much of work life balance. It does depends on your manager though. But no urgencies and no unnecessary stress.

Dislikes

Very less pay, no promotions, no incentives, people are literally working like government jobs. No future.

Not good for long term , people who want to gain tech skills and move out , this company is good. Promotion and salary hikes can be only in dreams , Very difficult to get promotion even if we spend 8 yrs in BT. Due to poor management and organisation structure , promotion ladder has been removed for all employees except top level executives. They move to next level very easily. People with 10+ yrs and 20+ yrs of experience in manager level can not get promoted to next level....Read More

Dislikes

Salary is very less compared to Service based companies Work life balance is only on Papers , in real they keep monitoring all employees attendance. Work from office is mandatory , there is no work from home option. Every movement is office is monitored, managers will be behind for all work and keep micro managing. Management is more likely from Delhi and Gurgaon , promotion ladders are decided from Delhi. South region is considered only for low class labours. Very old and vague process in all areas of BT , it makes every person to struggle and take blame on them during performance reviews . Finally company and management will not accept of using old tools and technologies without any process , they blame on person for not completing the task or not achieving it. They have old technology in some countries and no telecom service in some countries , we need to provide and deliver project in those countries without any support from BT. however we need to take sole ownership without any authority to accomplish project. Customer satisfaction on BT is very poor in UK and EU region , still they survive due to the brand....Read More
