Thanks DXC! You have finally removed my dilemmas whether to leave or stay! What is happening to me now is maybe even "better" than micromanaging! After being under heavy micromanagement, lately I have started to receive contradictory instructions... — read more
DXC - The Truman Show without the humor
Notice how Sal looks like Jim Carey? His profile pick is from me, myself and steakcutter2. Maybe we are just in Jim/Sals latest comedy vehicle. The exec pay is hilarious. His comments on attrition comic genius. Cant wait for the reviews. — read more
24% attrition rate shocking and alarming
I found it amusing that Mike Sal said that the 24% attrition in July isn't a problem. How can you maintain good consistent delivery when a quarter of your staff are jumping ship. He then said his OK to pay more to recruit new outside replacements... — read more
I have never wished to get laid off before
I never thought that one day I would actually want to get laid off from my job here, now I do. They want to get rid of people without giving them layoffs and they seem to have a lot of success in that, given that people are leaving en masse. I am... — read more
Employee Survey
The SCHRO Steak Cutter 2.0 is at it again! Employee Engagement survey starts 09/06. Request all to kindly refrain from participating - show the middle to the b---h.
Growth strategy
Silly question - what about growth strategy? Does it even exist here anymore? It’s amazing to me that DXC has dropped to this level today, because there used to be really a lot of optimism here and people loved working here. It was a real art to... — read more
Michael S President and Chief Executive Officer Compensation 2021 $21,733,120
Michael Salvino, President and Chief Executive Officer Total FY21 Compensation: $21,733,120 Total FY20 Compensation: $13,320,505 And he gets mad when we ask why are pay increases were less than 5%
ANZ leadership never seems to change?
as a long time CSC now DXC employee here in ANZ it seems strange to me that there never seems to be much change at the senior level? We have had the same CEO, same SLT and in many cases no real change in much of the management structure at all... — read more
DXC shareholders reject executive compensation - the deception unravels
https://www.crn.com/news/managed-services/dxc-shareholders-reject-executive-compensation Major institutional shareholders are fed up and sell! https://money.cnn.com/quote/shareholders/shareholders.html?symb=DXC&subView=institutional
Lay me off, please!
I've already been through all the stages of grief just waiting to be laid off, now I'm in the acceptance stage and I feel good about it. I'm ready to move on. Although, knowing my luck, now that I'm no longer stressing about being laid off 24/7... — read more
JP Morgan sees end in sight GBank still pumping
From the motely fool: DXC Technology does IT services and consulting for companies around the world. This sounds like a solid business, but its sales and profits have been deteriorating over the past few years. Trailing-12-month sales have been... — read more
Nothing seems to change for the better
In fact, things here are just going downhill. There hasn't been any positive change for a long time. I recently talked to some colleagues, we tried to remember what was the last good move of this company (?) It was hard to come up with anything... — read more
News on layoffs
Has there been any new info on layoffs?
How often do you work on projects you don’t like?
I am again placed on a project where I have to force myself to find a few of its qualities in order to get through it...... However, it is simply impossible to find... There is nothing new to learn, it is boring, not aligned with my career and of... — read more
Removal variable pay from FY22 onwards
Received an email from HR informing me that I am not longer eligible for variable pay, effective immediately for FY22 and the future. These x-x really understand how to motivate staff to go the extra mile. Line management “leadership” is hiding in... — read more
Would it be better if our leaders had more tech knowledge?
Someone is completely right, our leaders understand only financial management. Some people think that for the leaders of companies like DXC tech knowledge is not so important, but I think that a lot of problems here have arisen precisely because they... — read more
History repeats itself
DXC Shareholders denied DXC named executives their annual compensation in shares, according to the latest SEC filing. Primarily due to the free-fall of the company's annual revenue numbers (From $25b to about $17b in 4 years). Did you know that... — read more
Who here is NOT looking to leave?
I realized it's going to be easier to count the people who are not planning to leave DXC than those who are looking left and right for a way out. Judging by the people I talk to, a good 90 percent of the workforce is not happy with at least some... — read more
It's not about money
Mike said its not about money, or pay rises, its about delivering, that's the people we want. Is he on another planet, people want to be paid fairly. If its not about pay why is he and his team getting paid $21million and $5million each. If he... — read more
Does DXC force their management to promote?
So I’ve had a LinkedIn connection with an ex-coworker since way when we both were still working at HPE (we both traveled from P&G -> HP -> HPE. I left HPE and he’s moved on to DXC in the transition. All of a sudden he’s promoting DXC on LinkedIn like... — read more

Town Hall way forward or kept in the dark?
What will mikey say in the upcoming town hall? Do we think he will discuss growth details of plans, future eg how much, when, what, and how? Will he share any ideas beyond high level logos, stack, new dxc etc. Anything on chopping, streamlining... — read more
Is ANZ the most Mikey1 part of DXC? Will it be the first to fail? Place your bets...
ANZ has had no changes at the top nor at the 2nd tier. Same old tired Mikey1 acolytes and weak tier 2 suck ups. Mikey 2 could have done something special in ANZ but instead it remains the worst of CSC/EDS/HP leadership led by one of Mikey's IBM... — read more
How satisfied are you with the skills you have gained here?
Certainly the individual is always most responsible for growing their own skills, still I wonder how satisfied you are with DXC in terms of how much this company has been a stimulating place for you to develop a skill set? Has DXC given you enough... — read more
Are they actually afraid to do the right things?
I wonder if they are actually afraid to focus on changes that would support the growth of this company? I believe that DXC needs profound changes if it wants to achieve organic growth and changes imply risk and uncertainty. And while they’re afraid... — read more
They only know how to plan layoffs
Where has the development of true vision, defining targets, focusing on systematic growth and long-term plans gone? It seems to me that planning a direction in which they want to take this company is reduced to just planning cuts. And then they... — read more
New info about WFR?
Anyone with new info?
It’s hard to be here, it’s hard to get a new job for 50+
Only ones left here are those who can't find other options. I'm surprised they didn't lay me off because I belong to the 50+ group and because of my age I still can't find a job somewhere else. I wonder how many people failed to find work after they... — read more
Stock price crashed 12% today
Analyst finally seeing through Mike's talking. Employee's have been screwed over so saying "they are happy and rewarded" is now recognised as not being true as all the pay has gone to vinny, hr lady, and mikes Together with declining revenues, how... — read more
Let me break it down for you
Hard work and dedication won’t make your job secure. You may get a bonus, a small raise or even a great performance evaluation. However, everyone that is in the rank and file is expendable. There is no “maybe” about it. In the end, if your salary... — read more
Horrific experience
first off stay away from DXC Canada, we were contractors , in my case with over 20 years experience working through Compaq/HP/DXC and very good at my job. we all got informed of being switched over to DXC directly from the contractor company, apply... — read more
This is where I started to hate my job
And I'm sure I'm not the only one? I thought I loved my job very much until I came here. That’s the biggest mistake I’ve ever made. Doing the same job here and in another company is a completely different thing. It's getting harder here. It is like... — read more
Have you ever had a harder start in any company than at DXC?
So far I have worked in several companies and in each I fit in very quickly. At DXC this is not possible just like that. Corporate culture is so toxic that it is impossible to fit. Every day I face expectations that are very unrealistic. I can't wait... — read more
Enough of how sh*t DXC is when will it fold and how?
My pick is 2024 when Mikey2's numbers don't come through and the stock free falls. The stock will stabilize between $5-7 (and DB will still be saying "hold") and the cycle will start again with Mikey3 and Steakcutter3 and what remains of the legacy... — read more
3 types of DXC employee - which one are you ?
talking to my colleagues in DXC across different regions there seems to be 3 types of DXC employee atm 1 - those that want to leave DXC 2 - those that want to leave DXC but can't 3 - those that don't know if they want to stay or leave which one are... — read more
Stinking appraisal process
Yes, another stinking appraisal process kicks off with pointless goals that don’t relate to the job you do. I’ve basically already resigned myself to a 3-4. I used to be consistently 1-2 but they’ve beaten that out of me as it’s meaningless. I think... — read more
Nobody here cares about you
DXC couldn't care less about its employees. We work our behinds off and they reward us with nothing. Actually, their idea of a reward is to give us even more to do and then give us a pat on the back as they spout out some nonsense like "we need more... — read more
I wish somebody had warned me, so I'm warning you
Don't get too good at what you do. In most other companies, that would mean a certain promotion. Here, you can get stuck in your role easily. Your manager will not want to let you go because you make him/her look good. All your hard work will be for... — read more
Mikey2 on Earnings call - we have no problem getting COLA (Cost of Living Adjustment) in our contracts
The question related to wage pressure, which is only exerted by Mikey2 and his crew. They clearly have no problem getting COLA. DXC as a company get COLA by Mikey2's own admission. In fact the only people that don't get COLA are... — read more
