Meet Millie, our wonderful People & Culture Assistant. Millie works alongside the People & Culture team to ensure our workforce are successfully onboarded and setup for success here at Vorboss. Millie joined Vorboss late in 2020 and we've seen her go from strength to strength!
Millie leads all our induction days, which keeps her pretty busy as we've hired and on-boarded over 200 people in 2021! Millie's friendly nature and understanding manner puts our new starters at ease, whilst ensuring everyone understands our company policies and procedures so they can hit the ground running from day one. Millie also leads our benefits program, meaning she's our go-to for any questions about the perks that come with working at Vorboss, these include Vitality Health, access to free therapy, financial well-being advice and much more.
We make two commitments to our staff when they join our team; firstly, that we'll work to make Vorboss the best job you'll ever have, and secondly, that we'll never lose track of our staff as individuals. Millie's work is so important for us delivering on those promises and we'd be lost without her!
Millie's favourite thing about working at Vorboss is seeing people settle into their new roles. Seeing the skills, talent and personality that they bring to their teams, the awesome things they can achieve once they’re here and how that all relates back to the business plan.
Below she gives us a small insight into what our onboarding process is like, why we know it's important to look beyond a CV and what her team look for when hiring for new roles.

A fast-growing footprint and a move to a new London HQ, InPost is going through exciting changes.
If you’ve ever picked up a parcel from a locker at your local supermarket or petrol station, chances are you’ve used InPost. Founded in Poland and now operating across nine countries, they’re a leader in logistics solutions for the e-commerce industry in Europe.
Preparing for the move
The team knew that moving offices and switching internet providers can bring unexpected hurdles, so finding a partner who could provide dependable service and simplify the installation process was essential.
Q4 is crunch time, with businesses pushing hard to hit year-end targets. But nothing slows momentum like lagging connectivity. For teams, that often run across hybrid setups using cloud apps, this often means slow file transfers, dropped video calls, and frustrated employees trying to get work done. Every minute of downtime is a minute of lost productivity.
The hidden cost of downtime
Our Reliability and Compensation Report shows that 51% of UK fixed business connectivity customers report experiencing an outage annually, and nearly 1 in 5 have more than three outages.
These disruptions cost the average business around £11,000 in lost output.
Even worse, over 60% of those affected didn’t receive any compensation, either because claiming it wasn’t worth the effort or they didn’t expect to get anything back. So, while cheaper connections might look appealing on paper, they carry hidden operational costs that far outweigh any upfront savings.
How bandwidth directly impacts productivity
As more teams use AI-driven tools to speed-up tasks, poor connectivity becomes counteractive. These tools rely on fast, stable bandwidth to process and return results in real time. When responses lag, workflows slow, and the efficiency gains AI is designed to provide are reduced.
Most businesses only realise their network limits when they need it most, Q4 is the perfect example! Yet many teams have simply learned to put up with it. After years of slow uploads and dropped calls, it’s easy to accept that’s just how things are. But it doesn’t have to be that way. There is a choice, and switching to a more reliable connection is simpler than most realise (to us, anyway).
Fix problems now before they get worse
Addressing performance issues now ensures your team finishes the year strong and starts the next one even stronger. With reliable bandwidth, files transfer instantly, video calls stay clear, and systems remain responsive, so your team can focus on what really counts, getting work done.
Even if everything seems fine today, your team’s bandwidth demands are growing rapidly. Nielsen’s Law shows that high-end users’ network speeds increase by roughly 50% each year, so now’s the time to check whether your current contract can support the upgrades your team will need to avoid future slowdowns.
