The amount that leaving managers are given is simply staggering. Whatever happened to simply leaving and finding another job?

Sums up their attitude really. They think they're above and better than 'ordinary people'.Haven't bothered with a TV licence for a year now and don't miss it in the slightest. The BBC's biased views are irrelevant to me, I neither watch their news, listen to BBC radio or visit their website.
For me it would be no loss at all if the BBC were vaporised tomorrow.
I do think the BBC is clearly out of control and not fit for purpose. Major change is needed and the excesses of the pay offs are only one of the appalling examples of the lack of probity at the BBC.
Given the growth of information and alternatives on the web nowadays I really question whether the BBC in the form that it exists today is needed any longer. Given the obvious chummy relationship between the BBC and all politicians I fear that change will be a very long time coming. But it will come in time. The absolutely obvious extent of the misfeasance and humbug is too great to be continued.

After 15 years service in a management position with a FTSE 100 company I got made redundant. I got 2 weeks per year, but my accrude bonuses were lost, as was my bonus for the year I left. I was also expected to work my notice period, and was even called back in on my last day, which I'd booked off as holiday.
The BBC need to get into the real world with redundancy payments.

Conversely I left a global company and received 1month for every year, with a multiplier on my notice period. They also paid my management bonus into my account some 4 months later which I didn't expect.The BBC need to get into the real world with redundancy payments.

Of course, in the private sector things are much more reasonable - Rebekah Brooks being cast out of News International with nothing more than a clip round the ear for example......
Remind me how News International is funded? Is it the same tax payers as those who fund the BBC?Why do people make these, frankly, f
king ridiculous comparisons?AnotherClarkey said:
