Quick ask please so I can discuss
No good options
I'm stuck in the worst kind of limbo. Staying means more of this stress, but leaving without a plan is scary. The fact that I can't decide which is worse says everything about how bad things are here.
Are DXC execs very transparent?
You could say they are WYSIWYG ("What You See Is What You Get"). They openly tell you on Town Halls they aren't good enough to grow the company and its true every year. They do not apologise for their failure, in fact they condone their failures by... — read more
In 2026, many employers are ditching merit-based pay bumps in favor of ‘peanut butter raises’
What are we getting?
What did Drum do?
I left DXC a long time back. I see Drum is at the top of the top table making even more moolah. What did he do? Did he actually consolidate those payroll and HR systems? Did he actually improve the companies processes? Just asking as it looks like... — read more
Check your pay
UK staff – with the recent change and standardisation of terms, have you checked your January pay advice? I’m finding it hard to tell whether mine is correct. What I can say is that my increased pension contribution was deducted from salary, but none... — read more
DXC Execs strategy - why buyback shares?
They know how to squeeze the last bit of blood out of the employees. The company is making $650million cash profit but they plead poverty and won't pay the employees. Execs take millions for themselves and on top they are using the profits cash... — read more
Seelan APAC leader gone…..thoughts?
APAC has had the reputation of toxicity for some time. Is this a complete change of guard we should be looking for? Is there light at the end of the tunnel for some of us, regardless what is going on globally. Keen to hear everyone’s perspective
How’s the Met Police account going?
Heard from a colleague that it’s chaos already. Been going about 3 months and still in discovery phase with teams just thrown together jus to fill up org charts etc. Sounds like a typical DXC account. Time wasted on endless meetings and lots of... — read more
Why bother staying?
What's the point of staying when there's no reward for it? No promotion, no raise, just more work. I'd almost rather get the layoff call at this point and take the money to leave this thankless place behind.
RF has a new gig to keep him busy - TikTok

New to the bench
DXC lost the account I was on (in North America (being deliberately vague)) and now I'm on the bench after many years on this account. I've been told they will look for a new placement but I'm not sure how long that will take and if they will find... — read more

Networks Strike Update 2026
We are now seeing a number of people join us, its become clear to a wider audience that the Execs are taking the money and telling the rest of us its bad so no money for you. They cant have it both ways. People are working out their lies. Hopefully... — read more
Awards
Who gives us these awards and they seem to be pay to play. There is no way we are best in class for anything
Platform X ghost
I see that ex boss of platform X is still in the company after catastrophic failure of her product. At the same time, 200 of hard working people from PX build team were fired. The captain should go down with the ship, but this rat escaped first and... — read more
if you got $6.7 million pay like Drum
He could put 1 years pay into a high interest account at 4% and generate a huge $268 000. Drum would get more interest in 2 months than most employees get in a years pay. Chris Drum is onto a winner for life, other execs are all laughing at employees... — read more

Drumgooles $3.1 million pay rise
Chris Drumgooles pay increased from $3.5 million in 2023 to $6.7 million in 2025. For what? And the guy has the cheek to say money is tight for rises every year.
UK is Doomed
Captain Mainwaring ordered his beleaguered troops to work harder to get yet another 0% pay rise. Nice work DA, that was a masterclass in how to p1ss off your staff even more. Maybe this clown should look in the mirror and realise he is the problem?... — read more
Available job list for your stuck DXC Colleagues?
Hi, I've been reading about all the disappointments here re long-awaited pay raises for a while. It's clear that management is just taking us for a ride and there will never be any meaningful raise anytime soon. How about instead of us all whining... — read more

Uk
What is happening to the UK business. Has everyone given up. Sales targets missed month after month and no one cares. Can't get a project done for love nor money. The strangest place. Even the leadership and upper management don't care.... is there... — read more
Best and Worst accounts
When senior management talk, it often feels like they’re describing a completely different company. I’m trying to work out whether I’m just in one of the worst-run accounts, and many of the frustrations raised here are actually coming from the same... — read more

Not promotions, but merit reviews. Have they been cancelled now? I thought it was pushed to Q4?
Deliver Excellence: When Process Prevents Progress
I genuinely want to deliver a good service to our customer, but I’m constantly blocked from doing so. At this point, I’ve more or less given up trying. The client wants something relatively simple, yet getting it done feels almost impossible. I... — read more

When we book travel through DXC’s preferred system, we’re treated to a delightful spectrum of hotel options — everything from “character‑building budget charm” to “I could accidentally spend £1,500 this week and still not find the minibar.” But the... — read more
Buy your new DXC clothing yourself…. Help us get our new brand out there
It never ceases to amaze me how DXC expect staff to buy their own DXC logo’d workwear if your manager doesn’t have a budget to buy. Add into the cost of shipping from the USA as they are ‘The Supplier’ and the cost is ridiculous circa £40 for a polo... — read more
Losing top talent at DXC
Why is DXC letting top people walk out the door without a fight? I’m not just talking about layoffs but folks leaving for competitors and getting zero pushback. No raises, no incentives, nothing. What's the plan for the future if this is how things... — read more
How are we doing with the value streams?
Quite a bit of useless guys in that internal IT team with their review boards etc. What a waste of time. Did they fix it?
Does the way DXC leadership managed effect your mental health?
So the expected answer would be "no" 😂 But after a few years here I wanted to create a list, which is no doubt just the start for which many of you can relate or add to. Im trying to explore DXCs current employees views and how you all feel, does... — read more
34 quarter's of failure
