Feel free to extend the points made in my Post, firstly outside your own company, then outside the industry. Indeed across all industries in the uk
Reread my post and have a think another about it. I do not dispute your points, not at all, undoubtedly your own points also contribute to the slide in your own company. It all sounds a bit low class to me. But that is the nature in some companies these days unfortunately
About time to stop looking out for just your own little gang.
Divide and conquer. It may be a party political rubbish to one man, but to another it is not exactly a difficult concept to comprehend, but it is exactly why we are all on a downward spiral.
The overall and general direction isnt a good one. If your own company has issues as you stated then that is even worse. And that definately is down to the lack of Union strength and changes to employment laws etc etc .... That started in the mid 80s. Unless that is party political rubbish. But thats as I recall it.
