Topics regarding layoffs at DXC Technology

Packages in the UK?

Looks like August 31st is going to be the last day for many old hands in the UK. Already seeing garden leave posts on LinkedIn from a few.. Not sure of the target numbers in this round though.

They deal with irrelevant things

Management constantly avoids topics that are of interest to us. They have become real experts in sweeping important things under the carpet. What do the hope to achieve with that? I guess they think that if they don't talk about an issue, the issue... — read more 

DXC time

What ghastly happened to DXC time, I thought it was supposed to replace all the duplicate time entry systems. I haven't heard about it for 2 year. I'm sure it was said Drumgoole had it all in hand and the rollout was to be completed. Mike seems to... — read more 

Sieze the Market or Not?

I keep getting told by the upper management that everybody has to help in siezing the market. So when there's extra chargeable revenue generating opportunities lower managers block the work. It's clear the upper management are working on one plan... — read more 

PWC giving large payrises

PWC giving large payrises - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-61941595 "The company said half of its more than 20,000 employees in the UK would get an increase of at least 9%, while 70% would get a rise of 7% or more." Can only increase the... — read more 

Time to leave is NOW!

The inside scoop is that over 50% of (non-Indian) North American employees are to be laid off. Mike 2 will walk away with a lot of money, and leave a trail of American bodies. DXC is on its way to becoming an Indian body shop.

False promises

Those who still believe in their false promises are either too naive or fairly new to DXC. They do it all the time. I guess managers can't offer anything more than false promises? Perhaps it would be better if they didn't make any promises at all... — read more 

People first joke

Does anybody recall Mike S saying he has a "people first strategy" on last year's earnings call. So far from the truth. What a joke his making of the staff. "People last" would be the actual truth.

Sh---y Marketing

From the top down. Our CMO has disappeared again...the 3rd in 2 years

There aren't many talents left

Of course the talents left DXC because they couldn’t reach their full potential here. Unless something is done to prevent it, this will become a company with no talented employees. If I was the leader of the company I would be worried, but our... — read more 

Fu-k DXC

That is all I have to say.

Goals

Your functional/business manager (not your people manager) should define goals for the coming year. If you meet or exceed your goals you should get a pay increase. All these other goals is just bullsh*t

What is our vision?

Do we even have a long-term strategy in place, outside of getting rid of as many employees as possible? It feels like everything that is being done is to boost short-term numbers but very little is being done to improve the company's long-term... — read more 

Shares offloaded

On June 1 and June 2 two days alone alone, Shouty and his cronies have offloaded 111K shares!!! So much for "We are in a great place, fantastic results etc, etc." Shouty: 64k shares dumped, steak cutter 2.0: 15k sold, Decky: 11k, Vinny: 9k... — read more 

Merger with Kyndryl ex IBM on the cards

A merger/consolidation will be on the cards within the outsourcing industry as Kyndryl has now dropped to $2billion valuation. So Mikey and co will find it attractive, it will raise the turnover by $18billion, taking it to over $30billion... — read more 

Does overload leave you any time for learning?

The issue I see is that people are so overloaded for work there simply isn't the time for most people to spend on learning. Ultimately that is bad for both DXC and the employee as skills and knowledge aren't kept up to date. I absolutely agree... — read more 

Results fantastic, reward not so much

In todays Applications Delivery townhall it started out with how fantastic the results were, they actually used the word fantastic several times. It ended with an out of their depth HR rep saying, reward calculation only just started should be done... — read more 

Tally Ho ShoutyMcShoutface

So MK2 is a shouter. Obviously works for him as he is Chairman of the board on 21Million $ remuneration package and surrounded by a bunch of sycophants. Sounds eerily similar to another bombastic twunt born in New York and likes to party during... — read more 

I tried to learn as much as I could

I spent over three years here trying to learn as much as I could so I could get a better opportunity elsewhere. Now that I’m planning to leave and looking for a new job, I don’t think I’ve expanded my skills quite enough. While this is largely... — read more 

If there is no adequate pay raise, I'm leaving

Many got pay raise only when they left here. I stayed here doing double workload, but if I am not adequately compensated soon, I will not hesitate in the slightest whether to leave or not. I think many will do the same? It’s a shame how little we... — read more 

" if we're not getting COLA, we will go get COLA"

Mikey "theShouter" Mk 2 makes sure DXC is getting there godda-it but employees? Any the strategy for GIS - "Price Increases" (Slide 19). Nice to see that as part of good governance (eh. MikeyMk2 just appointed himself Chairman which is recognised... — read more 

Close to retirement

Pretty much everyone advises that it may be better for those close to retirement to stay here. Nobody says how close to retirement though??? I know of some people who very close to their retirement and got laid off anyway which makes me very... — read more 

Mentors at DXC

Do you have a mentor here at DXC? People keep telling me that you have to have one in order to succeed.

DXC on resume

However it is now getting to the point that having DXC on your CV/Resume (unless you are a grad getting first job experience) is starting to hurt future career progression - why were you at DXC and/or why did you stay so long when clearly it was... — read more

Still afloat

From year to year, the situation in this company is getting worse. I used to think that DXC had a future but now I’m aware that the company is just barely keeping afloat. It makes no sense for talented people to stay in such a company. The... — read more 

They are forgetting about offshoring disadvantages

How can I respect leadership whose only solution for almost everything is offshoring? I can hardly respect such leadership. In addition, they seem unaware that offshoring also has its disadvantages or are they totally ignoring them?
