Let's face it, a company is only as strong as its leader and there's a reason Mike Lawrie is not on the list of the top 100 CEO's in America. Anyone can do what he has done, layoff people, cook the books, not pay suppliers, except for the executive... — read more

If you have a lot of years service - which is probably the only thing keeping the 'remainers' in DXC right now - then hang on for the payout. But be sure, that 'hanging on' will continue to be painful I am afraid, as DXC will surely come up with even... — read more

They are actively downsizing everywhere. Malaysia site hitting the most!
They are rapidly downsizing the company extremely. Most of the staffs are getting 2 weeks notice only and given the boot. Don't risk your future by joining this company especially in Malaysia and Singapore. They are moving to China and India due to... — read more
Resign or wait for WFR ( to be given the package ). What's your opinion?
In the context of cost savings, it makes logical sense to only provide opportunities for hiring/career developments/promotion/increments to those interns/entry/intermediate going forward. What are the opportunities left for the more senior team... — read more

@DXC employees are 'taken out'
This is so strange, previously only terrorists were 'taken out' but now it is the employees that helped build the company with all their hard labor that are 'taken out'. More than just the work of a 'hitman' by the DXC management. Mikie is looking... — read more

Bracknell Office, Berkshire (UK) to be closed off
The Bracknell Office, Berkshire hardly has any working staff and is more of an overhead to DXC. It should be closed off sooner than later. The employees here are really a waste.
Like it or not, the strategy is working
DXC posted earnings last night and the stock is up 8% today. Yes, they missed revenue targets, but the earnings per share blew expectations. That means cost cutting is ahead of revenue growth....precisely what they want.
