How to get rid off people 101

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

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

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

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

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

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 

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 

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 

Stock price crashed 12% today

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

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 

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

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
