On Tuesday we had a meeting with our Ops manager to find out our company lost the contract with the client. We have 6 months until the new company takes over. We work in client’s site.
Now, I have a few options to weigh. I could bugger off. I could look around on our company website for another location, they always prefer an internal hire. Or I could use the protection of TUPE law and stay where I am.
Five years in that place, I have the second immediate manager, the GMs we are on seventh, I think. All my coworkers have changed apart from one other person. One more set of new people would be nothing out of ordinary. On the other hand, I like the venue. I like my short commute, I like the spacious changing room with showers and free towels. I like the equipment and space we have. I like we have a window and can see the daylight. I like the hours what are really rare in my trade, and the new company has to honour my contract and pay rate. The management may be new but the client still expects very similar service so the changes would be minimal.
I have 6 months to weigh my options, see who will try to poach me or hear more about the new company but I’m not worried at all, I’ll be fine anyway
