Big changes at Internet Solutions

Internet Solutions will reduce staff positions in the coming weeks as the company streamlines departments, roles, and responsibilities.

How does reducing the number of staff help improve service for the client? It normally makes it worse since there are less people to deal with the work load. From experience with our ever changing Client Managers at IS, they seem to have quite a high turn over in staff. They could probably just stop hiring replacements for 6 months and they would end up with the same number as if they had retrenched people.

Could also be a huge boon for their Network and Infrastructure guys. Take the retrenchment package, go to Amazon, get signing bonus. Quick way to get a cash boost and make the most out of a bad situation.

Stop with the corporate bs.

You are going to tell some employees they no longer have a job.

I wonder if the new players in fibre etc. - along with deals like AH - are causing some damage to their bottom line ?

 

[Lupus]

Feels like the CEO has been steering this ship into the iceberg since he took over. The initiatives that came up while I was there wow, oh wow. I saw this coming about two years ago.

Doubt it.

If you become more efficient (thereby improving prices) and improve the customer experience, your sales should go up and you will need to hire staff

Hope they suffer the same fate as Telkom.

 

[dunkyd]

Any further news on this story as I see nothing about it on any forums or BD ?

 

[TheChamp]

What happened to Telkom?

Why? What did IS do to hurt you?

What happened to Telkom?

Didn't that one political party take them to court when they let everyone go.

Why? What did IS do to hurt you?

Offered me fibre at a silly silly price.

That's a very senseless reason to wish that people get fired and families staying without food on their table...

Its Thor. Don't expect too much reason or logic.

That is the theory. The reality is usually a fuccup.

Where did I say that?

I said it's wrong that they are being fired and families without food.
