WFR's USA

Has anything changed in DXC ANZ?
Been a couple of years since I put my hand up to take a WFR and left DXC (ANZ Region). Occasionally check into this site and see the same issues and concerns (no pay rise, loss of revenue and constant waves of WFR). I was wondering if there has... — read more

DXC Issues
DXC destroyed trust internally shortly after Shouty took over. He promised change. He promised to make DXC a people-focused company, with words like "We're going to look after our people, and our people will look after our customers". Fine words... — read more
It's a special talent
I believe that it takes a special talent to convince employees that everything is under control in the company, while more or less we all see that this ship is sinking fast. What do they hope to achieve by lying to people? Do they really think that... — read more
I don't think there is any better advice
This sounds like the best thing you can do. Get your CV as close to perfect as you can. Practice your interview skills and techniques. Research the companies you'd like to work for and ensure that, unlike DXC, they are ethical and treat their staff... — read more

Do DXC Realise what they have done ?
It’s the first topic of almost every single meeting at the moment. The leadership have seemingly broken trust with the entire staff base in the U.K. I still haven’t yet found someone in gainful employment who’s company hasn’t given them a cost of... — read more
We work to get paid!

Rather than a survey to chosen few, why not have an open VR?
That would give our clueless leaders a clear indication of what staff think about things. It would also get rid of all those expensive resources with poor tone, that DXC clearly what to get rid of. After all if staff are expected to put up with some... — read more

It's not all about money
Just a few more days and DXC will be a thing of the past for me. I gave notice, but not only because the new employer offered a higher pay, but primarily because I can't stand the way managers treat employees here anymore. Is it ok for a manager to... — read more

Loyalty or Slavery
Don't let loyalty become slavery. If they don't appreciate what you bring, then let them eat alone. Now, let's see the DXC post wh--e's replies.
Union involvement (UK)
Do DXC recognise any specific union in the UK? Personally I am a member of Unite but they seem to have done absolutely nothing in recent times. Where are the union(s) in all of this? No payrises.. Etc.. Aren't they meant to have our backs?

What happens to DXC Corgis?
The whole world is worried about "the queen's corgis". Washington post writes a full page on it. Seems like no analyst or "wail" street is interested in the condition of DXC Corgis under this leadership. Isn't it strange times?

The cons outweigh the pros
Only one thing still keeps me here, and that is that I can't get a better offer. I think that is the number one reason why most of us are still at DXC. Is there perhaps another reason to stay? I doubt it. On the other hand, there are too many... — read more
