Visa Basingstoke - Anyone worked in operations?

I have worked at VISA in Basingstoke but not in the operations team.
When I was there I was in the Unix support team.
The operations team there is generally better than general ops departments.
The contract specs for the operations team members there did require a the full set of Unix requirements to the point of being a Unix administrator but anything above general basic stuff was always forwarded onto the Unix team.
In summary, if you are usually in a Unix sys admin then it will be too basic and if you are usually in ops then it will be good.
Nice site, small. difficult to find. The business park is easy to find but none of the companies displayed who they were so it's all a bit hit and miss.
Nice canteen. -
