No intention of listening to any of this B S. But curious to see little Paul on his barstool with 4 other AI robots droning on and on about an absolute load of old corporate management twaddle. What did you think? I lasted about 15 mins then nodded off. Did my timesheet though.

Anyone know when Jenny will be hosting another Call? Going to draw in big crowds.
@ac It’s all bent…
@1mz here's why: tall stools and skirts, where hers was probably an appropriate length otherwise, just don't mix. Proper communication between whoever chose the set for the call and those attending it didn't happen. J probably showed up and did her best to deal with it.
So seriously...move on and bi--h about actual issues, ok?
Wonder why they inserted the AI table in the video recording after the live town Hall.
Must have been embarrassing, Ragones dress code was in appropriate for "DXC values"
@1cx what is wrong with you? Seriously.
She is getting well paid and l.
But what about Ram's vest?? If it's that cold inside, maybe raise the AC to an appropriate temperature. Imagine the $$$$ savings on our electricity costs! We can then say we're "planet forward" or some other marketing slop. Environmentally Friendly..."at pace"?? "End to end" Climate Consciousness?
@12y It was the only reason I stayed tuned in for. Definitely a plus point for a DEI hire. BTW no one gets promoted in DXC, they just change your job title.
@13v that table wasn't there during the call. It looks like it was added in later.
She's taken over the new Mary role. Making it so obvious 4 against 1 even on the town hall.
She's working very hard, hope she is going to take some time out for recovery.
To be fair she did put a table in the way so you couldn't see all the way up----t.
But yep it was a microskirt which went up as far as her hands. Would have thought it would be more of a younger persons mistake that at Rags age.
Being a woman i found it demeaning. It sends the message you have to show off your body in DXC to get promoted.
Really disapointed seeing it from the HR leader. Even the men on the call were trying not to stare at her, she needs to wear something appropriate.
@zd you need to watch it, the main HR lady on full display. Definitely not broadcastable in the daytime.
What did I miss ???
Watch it quick before it gets pulled of the site. Last time something similar happened was when Salvi flipped on a TH when asked about raises. The recording got removed quickly from the intranet.
How Rag1 is allowed on stage like that is startling, you wouldn't want young kids to see it.
Just seen it, never seen anything like it before in DXC. Worth watching for a load of Jenny. 4 against 1.
@q2 yes
@jz was that in 2026?
You useless b-ms in high cost western locations - you will get nothing. The global south guys got something reasonable - cause 79 percent of workforce is here.
The idea is to reduce the high cost countries.
It was the Jenny on show show. Nothing left to the imagination.
@br job level 11 through 13 got massive raises in the US. Most were 10 percent and here's the best part. Ranking didn't matter. With pool for those guys I could have given the entire team 4.5 percent and made a ton of people happy. Promotion aren't so easy. If a job level 8 leaves you are allowed to move a jl10 or below up one level but not promote a 9 i to that 8 spot.
The execs are clearly geniuses and we plebs just don't understand. They have managed to convince the clients to keep DXC, and at the same time convinced them not to send any real work our way. My job since April has pretty much just been to dial into 3 status calls a day. The client thinks their project is very important and everyone is very busy. Yet from what I see - despite this status call having an attendance of up to 30 people. Only about 5 ever contribute anything. Meanwhile we all know I'm not doing anything so that continues to justify the perpetual 0% pay increases. DXC has let my skillset rot and burn, but despite asking for VR, they say I'm needed - clearly just so we can bill clients for this fluff just a bit longer. DXC has lost all it's skilled engineers, and none of the manager seem to know anything either! Please let it end soon!!!
@ds that's because
a) they make their own "rules" about their bonuses
B) those bonus rules don't include difficult to achieve objectives (like revenue growth)
C) giving pay rises for the plebs actually impacts the metrics that their raises are based on
Corrupt AF.
I bet the execs got pay raises and bonuses even though they failed to generate revenue. Bunch of clowns on stage thinking they are important.
@br the answer to that excellent question is almost certainly "in the cheap places".
The mix of global labour explains that.
I'd be surprised if this forum has a single viewer from the 80%+ of the cheap countries.
But yes I agree I've seen no movement from USA or European people and salaries... Other than the usual cleptocrats at the top.
Did I hear correctly the HR woman say over 70,000 staff have received promotions and over 40,000 got a pay increase ?
Where are these people ? No one I know has.
It was mind numbing to listen too, corporate twaddle and AI bingo, we need to stop employing entrepreneurs, they are only interested in serving themselves and manipulating things so it triggers a bonus payment.
So let me get this right. Raul made $48 million dollars in 2026 from DXC, but they can't afford to give me a 1% pay raise? What the heck are we doing here folks?!?!?! Between the lack of pay raise and the saddest severance policy I've ever seen in my career, this should be a very short term stop for most people. The minute the job market turns I am so out of here.
