      Neither, I'm not naming and shaming, it might lead to consequences.

        Outside London, £50k for someone with 10 years experience is still great. Think about it, 10 years experience means you're still in your thirties. A professional job doesn't entitle you to a 6-figure-salary!

        But if it's in/around London, OK I agree with you.

            £50K pa.

            I have friends that are plumbers and sparks, zero stress, easy job, earning more than that.
            I've known blokes who were left behind after the outsourcing happened & given the task of managing the offshore resources. They very quickly get totally stressed out and suffer breakdowns as they are now ultimately responsible for the deliveries, but without any of the usual levers to fix problems

            Avoid at all costs
            How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

              Thank goodness you're just a day-rate code-monkey, and your entitled detachment to reality is therefore not going to harm anyone.

                      No doubt the board of said company will be continually scratching their heads and wondering why their IT is going to sh!t

                      50k for that job is not even close to an option - and I live oop North

                      they are not looking for someone to succeed they are looking for someone to fail and take the blame.
