Vodafone reviews

Nobody picks up their phone or rarely reply to voicemails. Process were convoluted. A steady stream of redundancies on an annual/bi-annual basis (not a bad thing if you've been there a few years). Bullies within management. I have never worked for a company were the majority of people weren't willing to take ownership. Meetings about meetings with little to no outcome from either. Your attendees would be late because they were in the queue at one of the coffee shops. A market follower rather than a market leader and slow at doing that. Better packages paid by their competitors and forget a decent pay rise if you're promoted. You will soon be paid significantly less than your peers who have joined from outside Vodafone. Over priced canteen and the quality of the food is poor. The work/life balance is appalling. You are expected to be contactable even whilst on leave.

- Threatening staff with new, arbitrary, "expectation" of office days, at the same time as announcing thousands of redundancies. - Lack of respect and trust in managers and staff. Blank punishments due to a minority of staff. - Total contridiction and walking back of shifting to new ways of working. During covid Vodafone was all about being a family and working together through the difficult time "guys this is the future way of working in Vodafone - arrange your lives to suit" two years later " either come to the office "2-3" days a week or be fired". - Zero planning of this rollout, lack of deck space, car parking and meeting rooms. "this is all to aid collaboration" but I cannot get a meeting room, sit in different offices and or come to the office on different days. - Whoever made this decision is a corporate dinosaur that did not like to see rented office space semi full or someone is mates with the landlord/s and looking to sort them out with requiring more floor space. - Hiding behind policy and emails. During this whole situation no one has taken questions on this subject, as to even explain the whys behind this. The only answer so far is to aid collaboration and to make sure there are people in the office for the graduates to work with...........
