MBW Posted January 4, 2019 Report Share Posted January 4, 2019 (edited) Have toyed with a career change and the trainee engineer jobs with openreach seem to tick all the boxes. However just wondered if there are any telecoms engineers on here who may have insider Knowledge, have heard mixed reports about what it is actually like to work for them Edited January 4, 2019 by MBW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mighty Prawn Posted January 5, 2019 Report Share Posted January 5, 2019 Well you can’t leave it like that! You have a PM is very mysterious? It all went very secret squirrel in my mind, has he said too much already? Just how powerful is this “openreach” of which we must not speak?...

525 Posted January 9, 2019 Report Share Posted January 9, 2019 The only comment I ever heard about Openreach engineers was that they worked 40 hour weeks. Unfortunately it was their bosses who dictated exactly which 40 hours those were. Go figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The managers were graduates who had no hands on experience, you must do x amount jobs per day blah blah, so I got early retirement, happy.
