Job has been ‘offshored’

After many years of service I get a call from someone I do not know telling me that my role will be ‘offshored’ thus making my role redundant. Well good luck in ‘offshoring’ what I do. As for the situation. Well is poor form. — read more 

Exhausted and burned out

Working at DXC has drained all my energy. As far as I can tell, that is the goal of this management, to completely exhaust us, long term employees, in order to bring younger employees in our place, regardless of their competencies?

When will our pay be adjusted for inflation?

The inflation is high, we probably lost about 20% of our pay over last three years of inflation. Dear managers and executives who are reading this board: When will our pay be adjusted for inflation?

DXC ANZ and attrition

I exited DXC ANZ over a year ago now when WFR was easier to get but the local job market in ANZ was not as crazy busy as it is now. Wondering how many of my ex colleagues are still waiting for a WFR and are they still possible (if you have a... — read more 

Yet another investor comment

"Let's take a moment and congratulate DXC and it's management team on marking a new 52 week low today, despite the rhetoric and throwing one billion dollar at it. Unless they had a stellar quarter this is poised to continue to grind down to below... — read more

This is a downward spiral

As long as DXC cares about how to reward the execs, and not at all how to recognize and reward the efforts of all of us who do all the work, this will be a downward spiral. Unfortunately, I don't think they will change their philosophy. In fact... — read more

Is the job market really that hot as they say?

Forgive my ignorance about the subject but what I hear and read are two diametrically opposite claims about the job market these days. On one hand people say that the job market is smoking hot. We hear stories about recruiters, basically stalking... — read more 

Tech honours dead???

Do we still have a tech honours program? Have seen nothing since the invite for new submissions last year. The public site still lists people who are no longer here... Are we a technology company with a technology career path?

I predict more layoffs

DXC Technology Co. closed $13.47 below its 52-week high ($44.18), which the company reached on August 3rd.

EDS middle management...

...is slowing choking DXC. Like weed in a lake sucking up all the oxygen and not allowing other life forms to live. All of these leeches are more than 10+ years at EDS/HPES and have formed a strangle-hold with their network. Nor do they work, but... — read more 

Town halls

Tawn halls are becoming more and more meaningless. Constantly the same empty phrases. the same empty promises. And what I’ve noticed is that everyone is reluctant to ask the right questions, the ones that might put them in an uncomfortable position... — read more 

If you want a raise, gotta go elsewhere

When i hear people say that they received as much as 20% higher pay in other companies after leaving here, I feel very naive for believing that the leadership will have enough common sense to provide adequate raises to those who deserve them the... — read more 

Founding principles abandoned

Quality used to be a thing before DXC. CSC Delivery, time, cost, quality. DXC took over and changed the balance scorecard to global financial, regional financial and reduced the customer qualitative bits and bonused the execs on, what one can only... — read more

US inflation has hit 8.5% when will hear on pay

This is ridiculous, inflation has nearly hit 9% and still to climb. When will Mike Self I'm no 1 make a announcement on pay raises. How much are we getting? He doesn't have to worry about bills, groceries, and other living costs, but still takes... — read more 

Opportunity for growth

I have given notice and will start something new soon, but now I am wondering about all the reasons why I didn't progress here as much as I wanted. Perhaps it's just me, maybe I didn't know how to stand up for myself in an environment like this... — read more 

Non Transformation journey

We're nearly 3 years in to Mike's transformation journey but turnover is still dropping, staff are paid low, growth is a pipe dream, same old legacy Hp/csc legacy middle managers think they are running the company. Dxc time came and went, still not... — read more 

The more I worked, the more work I got

The biggest mistake was when I thought it wasn't true what others were saying and that working hard couldn't go unnoticed or unrewarded. Not only was all that extra effort not rewarded, but I was gradually getting more and more work. And finally... — read more 

Treat customers like cr-p, lose customers

DXC's overall attitude is completely objectionable. We are known for mistreating our customers just to be able to save a buck. That's not even a poorly kept secret anymore, everybody knows this. Then everybody acts shocked that we're losing... — read more 

Leave for more money

I took a position with a starting pay that is higher than what I earn now and I couldn't catch up to if I stayed at DXC for another 10-15 years due to lousy raises. There's really no point in staying here if you're looking to improve your position in... — read more 

Americas Town Hall Today

Americas Town Hall Today, lets see how they spin how poorly AMS is doing and the reasons why us in the America's won't see a pay increase (a pay increase of less than 10% doesn't count as an increase). I bet most will get ZRO, ZIP , Nothing. But... — read more 

"FY23: Working Together to Win"

Screamer 1.0 sends a big thank you and let us win together in FY23 email on AN APRIL FOOLS DAY!!! He is taking employees, customers and shareholders all for a ride.

I am terribly frustrated by such advice

Even on this forum I have seen tips like “do only bare minimum” or “let the others do the donkey work”. It's disgusting! These selfish people don't even take into consideration that someone has to get the work done and that their colleagues will... — read more 

Where is the Mike Screamer playbook?

Dxc seem to me to be very different from country to country business unit to business unit client to client and every other group client project seemed better than mine. Dxc would be hiring for one group but firing in another. This didn't make sense... — read more 

DXC ....too big to fail?

Been out of DXC for a couple of years now (DXC ANZ) so decided to check out this forum to see if things have changed. Unsurprisingly not much has changed at all. Key concerns are still lack of pay rises, revenue going backwards and good people... — read more

I am still here because I am close to retirement

Don't call it a pay increase

I'm tired of hearing people saying they got a 1 or 2 percent pay increase. The inflation is four to eight times that. You didn't get a raise. Your pay went down. What you got is an insult meant to placate you and you're buying it! Unless your pay... — read more 

It was worth a try

I thought it would be much harder for me to find a new job because of my age. I sent a huge number of applications, there was no response for months. When I thought I would have to stay here for a while longer, I got an offer - almost 35% higher... — read more 

Trauma

Platform DXC / PDXC / Platform X

Does anyone know where this is being successfully used, in a meaningful way? Feels like it's been talked about for years but I don't know of any significant use of it. Is it a real thing being used well or just slideware?
