Topics regarding layoffs at DXC Technology

EDS middle management...

...is slowing choking DXC. Like weed in a lake sucking up all the oxygen and not allowing other life forms to live. All of these leeches are more than 10+ years at EDS/HPES and have formed a strangle-hold with their network. Nor do they work, but... — read more 

Town halls

Tawn halls are becoming more and more meaningless. Constantly the same empty phrases. the same empty promises. And what I’ve noticed is that everyone is reluctant to ask the right questions, the ones that might put them in an uncomfortable position... — read more 

If you want a raise, gotta go elsewhere

When i hear people say that they received as much as 20% higher pay in other companies after leaving here, I feel very naive for believing that the leadership will have enough common sense to provide adequate raises to those who deserve them the... — read more 

Founding principles abandoned

Quality used to be a thing before DXC. CSC Delivery, time, cost, quality. DXC took over and changed the balance scorecard to global financial, regional financial and reduced the customer qualitative bits and bonused the execs on, what one can only... — read more

Wipro acquires US-based consulting firm Convergence Acceleration Solutions Wipro acquires US-based consulting firm Convergence Acceleration Solutions Wipro will pay an upfront consideration of $50 million and contingent consideration of $30 million... — read more 

US inflation has hit 8.5% when will hear on pay

This is ridiculous, inflation has nearly hit 9% and still to climb. When will Mike Self I'm no 1 make a announcement on pay raises. How much are we getting? He doesn't have to worry about bills, groceries, and other living costs, but still takes... — read more 

Opportunity for growth

I have given notice and will start something new soon, but now I am wondering about all the reasons why I didn't progress here as much as I wanted. Perhaps it's just me, maybe I didn't know how to stand up for myself in an environment like this... — read more 

Non Transformation journey

We're nearly 3 years in to Mike's transformation journey but turnover is still dropping, staff are paid low, growth is a pipe dream, same old legacy Hp/csc legacy middle managers think they are running the company. Dxc time came and went, still not... — read more 

The more I worked, the more work I got

The biggest mistake was when I thought it wasn't true what others were saying and that working hard couldn't go unnoticed or unrewarded. Not only was all that extra effort not rewarded, but I was gradually getting more and more work. And finally... — read more 

Treat customers like cr-p, lose customers

DXC's overall attitude is completely objectionable. We are known for mistreating our customers just to be able to save a buck. That's not even a poorly kept secret anymore, everybody knows this. Then everybody acts shocked that we're losing... — read more 

Leave for more money

I took a position with a starting pay that is higher than what I earn now and I couldn't catch up to if I stayed at DXC for another 10-15 years due to lousy raises. There's really no point in staying here if you're looking to improve your position in... — read more 

Americas Town Hall Today

Americas Town Hall Today, lets see how they spin how poorly AMS is doing and the reasons why us in the America's won't see a pay increase (a pay increase of less than 10% doesn't count as an increase). I bet most will get ZRO, ZIP , Nothing. But... — read more 

"FY23: Working Together to Win"

Screamer 1.0 sends a big thank you and let us win together in FY23 email on AN APRIL FOOLS DAY!!! He is taking employees, customers and shareholders all for a ride.

I am terribly frustrated by such advice

Even on this forum I have seen tips like “do only bare minimum” or “let the others do the donkey work”. It's disgusting! These selfish people don't even take into consideration that someone has to get the work done and that their colleagues will... — read more 

Where is the Mike Screamer playbook?

Dxc seem to me to be very different from country to country business unit to business unit client to client and every other group client project seemed better than mine. Dxc would be hiring for one group but firing in another. This didn't make sense... — read more 

DXC ....too big to fail?

Been out of DXC for a couple of years now (DXC ANZ) so decided to check out this forum to see if things have changed. Unsurprisingly not much has changed at all. Key concerns are still lack of pay rises, revenue going backwards and good people... — read more 

Screamer claims can't make margin ...

...like MNC TCS beciof computer room real estate. Digital realty and others making profits opening and running data centers, why can't DXC?

I am still here because I am close to retirement

Just a little over two years is not much until retirement. I'm still here because I don't believe that I would manage to find another job that would suit me better, but yes, I often wonder whether it might be worth the risk to leave now. How close... — read more 

The forward game

Don't say "its not my job", play the foward game and send/forward and email on to someone else. If everyone who recieves teh email plays the same game, there will be loads of forwarded emails all giving the impression that everyone is trying their... — read more 

Don't call it a pay increase

I'm tired of hearing people saying they got a 1 or 2 percent pay increase. The inflation is four to eight times that. You didn't get a raise. Your pay went down. What you got is an insult meant to placate you and you're buying it! Unless your pay... — read more 

It was worth a try

I thought it would be much harder for me to find a new job because of my age. I sent a huge number of applications, there was no response for months. When I thought I would have to stay here for a while longer, I got an offer - almost 35% higher... — read more 

Trauma

I'v been out of DXC for three years now, and a work colleague recently resigned from where I work now to go pursue his more specialized ambitions elsewhere. I didn't feel jealous. I didn't feel envious. I didn't have a longing in my heart wishing... — read more 

Platform DXC / PDXC / Platform X

Does anyone know where this is being successfully used, in a meaningful way? Feels like it's been talked about for years but I don't know of any significant use of it. Is it a real thing being used well or just slideware?

That's not my job

I used to be puzzled by people who just say It’s not my job when you ask them about something. How many times did you hear that? I used to hate that kind of behavior, but now I say that same thing myself. The reason is very simple, no one... — read more 

Pay raises getting ridiculous

Just had an email from my energy supplier and the bill is going up 45% from April. My food shopping has gone up massively, and fuel for the car has shot up, all this on top of taxes being hiked from April. Everyone else is giving raises to soften... — read more 

I am waiting for raise announcement

I keep hoping we will get a raise soon, but it looks like we will have to wait a long time for that thanks to the leadership that doesn’t care how their hard working employees live. It's a real shame.

Don't trust recruiters

I made that mistake. Make sure you request copies of the company policy for each perk they mentioned while trying to hook you in the recruiting phase. If they give you a simple document just with those things listed, don't accept it. Ask for official... — read more

Inflation of Execs

Inflation has reached the Exec Board! Adding a president, one more exec. Now the pile up to 21. https://dxc.com/us/en/about-us/newsroom/press-releases/03072022 Seems DXC needs a townhall meeting when Salvino invites the DXC Executive Leadership... — read more 

I'm completely burned out

They kept adding more and more work and now I'm at the point where I can't do half of it because of burnout. My productivity has halved. I don't even care. If they want to fire me, they can do it. I'm so tired all the time that getting my life back... — read more 

Exiting Russia, laying off 4,000 staff there?

https://dxc.com/us/en/about-us/newsroom/press-releases/03042022 "we are no longer pursuing business in Russia and have committed to exit this market. We have approximately 4,000 colleagues in Russia" Sounds like 4,000 Russian employees are getting... — read more 

Share Buy-Back

According to Screamer 1.0 (atleast Lawrie never shouted publicly in town halls), $1Billion has been set aside for shares buy-back. That is approximately 30million shares. Let us see how long will this financial engineering to kerp the stock afloat... — read more 

Properly staffed teams

From what I can see, there are no more properly staffed teams at DXC. The lucky ones are only missing a few people, the unlucky ones have to work with bare bones, but there's nobody who can say they have all the people they need. The company found a... — read more 

Worst townhall ever, and that's a tall order

First, Salvino rants about people not using their full names to ask questions when only one person had not provided their surname at that point. Second he gets outraged, and refers to questions as horrible and terrible that are fair questions. (And... — read more
