DXC Wins and Success - why?

I keep receiving these emails about great results, another wins, another successes, so much money from so many contracts, but SO WHAT? There is nothing in it for me, and if the company is in such a great condition, why it cannot match the salaries to modern rates? I do not know what is the purpose of these emails. Honestly, every time I see these, I feel like someone just spat in my face, laughed and walked away.


Nazarro's Promised Reward Realized

Fourteen months ago, Frank Nazarro said if you were still here in a year, there would be some sort of grand reward.

What is this grand reward comprised of?

  • Lived through a work nightmare for well over a year

  • Congratulations for making Fannie's 10K mention Freddie as a "risk factor"

  • The promise that gen AI will continue to replace non-Indians

  • Indians only hiring other Indians. Those of european descent get to figure out how to apply for unemployment. Our children we struggled to put through college left to flip burgers, because Indians only hire other Indians

  • A salary that is so far behind the REAL inflation (not the government adjusted bogus inflation), that some of us have begun juggling bills so we can still afford to put something in the basket at the grocery store

  • THESE* are your grand rewards for getting Freddie Mac through the past year.

THANKS TRAITOR PULTE

Difficult to refinance one's home when one has been laid off. Freddie doesn't care, all the contractor backfills are 100% Indian. So Freddie saves money by laying off Americans. The contractors can be converted to full time in the future.

So many teams are 100% Indian. No remaining teams are 100% any race, but they still include a continually growing number of Indians.

Now, stand up, and give yourself a round of applause! Freddie Mac has put one over on the USA, and in the process, is helping to replace the working population of our Nation.


am i getting enough. not sure about the raise

been only here for around 1.5 years. no one discusses the raise or im not sure what im getting is the right percentage. Is less than 5% a normal rate? or are we supposed to get more? I know i should discuss this with my manager but they all say im getting the max out of all.


Salary disparity

It feels like SAP layoffs are just a negotiation tactic to keep salaries low at SAP.

The gross median income in Germany is around €52000 per year. And this includes bonuses.

Christian Klein's salary is €800,000 per year and he gets a bonus of €18 million or more.

So Christian Klein makes in a day what an average German makes in a year.

If we didn't have a CEO, we could have had 365 colleagues who could have added a lot more value to the company.

I understand that Christian Klein is a CEO of a large public company and he has responsibilities. I believe his salary is quite inflated and he should not get so much. And it is mind blowing that he gets so much bonus.

If there is less budget for salary and benefits, surely SAP can save money by paying the executives less. So why are they not doing that?

Also, the share buyback calculation seems off. To be able to buy back so many shares, SAP will have to lay off between 10000 and 15000 employees worldwide. For a company where employees are already overworked and underpaid, it doesn't make sense to buy back so much stock.


It’s called an Eisp and it’s not probably happening

For all non union people it’s called an Eisp and I doubt they are gonna offer anything more then they usually do yearly to a few .Our numbers are small our salaries even when claimed to be the so high are minor when compared to the management.Even if it were slow where we only did few jobs a week we paid our salary we have a value .The real question is will they go after the high earning c suite management or is it just all smoke and mirrors


H-1B Salaries

This is a serious question and ONLY directed at H-1b FTEs. I’m a white female from Europe who used to be on H-1b when initially hired by Nike. I’ve been a permanent resident for a while now but still curious about something. I know the scenarios where H-1b hires get paid less or taken advantage of but I have never had that happen to me by Nike or any of my other (much bigger) employers. When Nike hired me, all of my coworkers on the team were American and my salary was comparable to or higher than theirs. Has any H-1b FTE observed they are in fact getting underpaid? Contractors are a different story and can be more easily exploited hence I’m excluding them from the question.


Metropolitan Opera Announces Layoffs

The Metropolitan Opera announced layoffs and salary reductions for executives. A new production for the 2026-27 season will also be postponed. The company is considering selling naming rights to its theater. It may also sell two Chagall murals, which would remain in the building.

How can Americans save themselves from getting laid off.

The world has changed and Americans now have to compete with global workforce. Now, the global workforce (workforce in India, etc. and H1-Bs in USA) work for much less than what Americans want.

Now, the companies of USA want to increase their profits so they will use cheap labour. They actually don't care about Americans, they only care about their profits and revenues. It is quite evident that the companies want profits even if they have to layoff Americans.

By the way, these all are the side-effects of capitalism.

So, now the only way for Americans to not get laid off is to ask the management to reduce their salary but let them keep their jobs.


WA state layoffs

Salary workers…. Did you get your post increase in January 1st?
WA state minimum wage went up meaning the minimum a salary worker can make in WA state as of Jan 1 2026 raised to $80,168.40 annually. It’s weird the focus was on layoffs and we didn’t get our increase
I will be contacting a lawyer and LNI


Salary bumps for people stepping into new roles?

So, for people that have now stepped into new roles because of the layoffs and people that left, are we getting salary adjustments? does anyone have any insight on this? or are we just "lucky to have a job" and are supposed to shut up and take it?
