For anyone who hasn't realised it yet, any external AI used by DXC e.g. Anthropic's Claude Tag, means that everything about DXC's thin layer of "value" will be consumed by the AI.
This quite an irony - The business of DXC taking over IT departments and "leveraging" employees (i.e. shedding) is now being replicated to DXC i.e. DXC's existance is being "leveraged" by Anthropic (as well as all the other SI companies).

When you think about it, whilst this is a disaster for young DXC employees, its a great opportunity for those near retirement. Its no longer about someone leaving DXC for another SI, its about either leaving to work for an end customer or leaving the IT industry all together.

Was this another round, or the last round?

I hope I’m a part of this layoff. When you have people like me who have been around for 14 years wishing that they will be Riffed it should paint a picture of how toxic this place is. Let this 12 year old VP enjoy her toxicity and all her a.. kissing useless sr directors.

Great job Verizon, thanks for the memories! They saved the MSS fed side and sh-t everyone else out! Down with the sinking ship! Middle fingers up Dan!

Rob decided Ai was better than Humans? I heard there have been lay offs in favor of Ai.

Crypto mergers and acquisitions surged in the first half of 2026. Deal volume reached $9.37 billion, a 26x increase from last year. A Bitcoin market downturn forced many crypto companies to cut staff. Traditional financial firms are acquiring crypto licenses and infrastructure. They prefer buying these assets rather than building them internally.

I will not reveal who I am or what I do in the company. I have heard some concerning numbers for the VSP and layoffs.
Is it true they're aiming for 12,000-18,000 layoffs?

They moved people out of real estate to WFH to get the real estate off the books end of 2nd quarter. Not because there has been a change of heart for RTO. Confirmed, a large WFH group. Shift bid completed early June NOT fully released. Company seems to be releasing 2 - 3 weeks of schedule. Normally, they would release about 3 month. This not an indicator of restructuring. #WFH #AT&T #AT&TLayoffs

Commissioners will adopt a final budget in December, with changes effective January 2027.

Heard the Chicago office was shutting down and some people were fired, offered severance or told to move to Plano or DC. Any confirmation?

Major change is how Opentext operates starts July 1. This change requires fewer people to do all jobs. WFR notifications start next week.

Just wondering if Wellmed was spared in this round

I made it through the layoff the last few times and now I'm drowning in everyone else's work.

Third? Fourth?

CDW isn't what it used to be. Worse culture, worse pay, with constant cuts on top of it. So why do you stay? For me, it's health insurance. That's the only reason.

If they try to say this is about performance, it's bullsh-t. We lost two of our best, highest performing people. I don't know why and who made the decision, but it's more than obvious by what's been happening that we're being led by complete and utter id--ts.

Is there a gaming company left that's actually hiring people and not laying them off? Where are we supposed to find new jobs? I really don't want to change industries, but the way things are looking, I won't really have a choice.

Good luck everybody.

Is there somewhere to look it up?
