When did it happen?

Did DXC become the toxic cesspool it is right now when it came to be or were its previous iterations just as bad? I've only been here for a year and I can't imagine having been here for ten or more and staying in this kind of environment. I'm kind of... — read more

No high hopes

If they don't give us raises, I think there will be a mass exodus. I'm not expecting that the leadership will finally decide to be a little generous towards us so I am already looking for other offers. Does anyone have any hope that we will get... — read more 

How to surive

With inflation around 10%/and winter fuel about to go sky high how are people going to survive in DXC? What's happening with this raise?

Down for the count

I feel like this company will end up shuttering and being sold off parts. The CEO clearly doesn’t know what he’s doing. He keeps lying to investors about overhead and too many employees as the main reasons for the company’s failures. But it’s a... — read more 

UK hiring freeze

BAE is going to sh-t and they've implemented another hiring freeze. Meanwhile they keep taking on more stuff we can't support. Project and Run Support are all a mess. There's a load of good staff left this last year and I know one guy who died... — read more

DXC Google Reviews

DXC job review summary

These kind of things were very common at DXC and no employee is happy or secure there. You can debate that nowhere there is a 100% job security. But there is no company that hires employees(god knows why when they don’t have enough projects) and fire... — read more

Reasons why you lost motivation?

1. It makes no difference to your chances of surviving a round of layoffs if you work hard or do nothing. Layoffs at DXC are a numbers exercise, with no consideration for performance. 2. Managers don't care what you're doing, or not doing. They're... — read more

Get out of this sh%t h0le while there is still time. There are a bunch of opportunities out there, this place is not worth your mental health.

Quality of service to clients

It doesn't seem to me that the leadership cares about the quality of service to clients anymore. Do you too think that it's almost become irrelevant to them?

Most managers have no clue

It can feel kind of liberating to work for someone who has no clue what you do and who also doesn't care about it either... Sometimes it suits me, I am freer to make my own decisions... However, I still think that it can be tedious and frustrating... — read more

Next round of cuts

My question is why do you think it will happen soon? Do some just want to create panic or did I miss something?

Endless cuts crippling long term growth

There are times when precise, targeted cuts can be a good thing, - in cases where a particular unit isn't used or performing for example. But to continuously cut staff who are actively billing is insanity, it only leads to one outcome. That's the... — read more
