Topics regarding layoffs at DXC Technology

Is SmartBuy still a thing?

When I left you could order whatever gear you needed via SmartBuy. Never went through DXC gear as the page was indefinitely blanked out for me. All you needed was a WBS & either a catalogue item or a quote from a supplier to get kit.

What changed with UK on call / overtime?

Left last year but keep hearing people say there's been a change in the UK side to on call / overtime policy. What's the issue here? I heard their MIM team are now being told by leads "being short staffed isnt justification for overtime" but is this... — read more 

Never forget

During the Q1 earnings call, Mike Salvino highlighted that while our transformation journey is creating value for our customers and colleagues, we have had shortfalls in the quarter and did not deliver on our global financial targets. In Q2, we are... — read more 

Leadership changes make zero sense

Reviewing the leadership page, some very strange moves. New leader of applications was the strategy guy New function customer success was the AMS regional guy No regional leads for AMS or EMEA even listed. Do they just make this up every Monday... — read more 

Appraisal acknowledgement

When do the managers return our appraisals for employee acknowledgment? We are now almost into May, and it’s very quiet.

Secure account data backed up overseas

Yes that’s right, people are told to backup their laptops using Onedrive. If you queried it with your manager and said it breaks policy as the backup is not retained in the UK staff are told to do it anyway as they would be the one in trouble if... — read more 

Don't bash UK networks

Why are people bashing the UK networks guys? Fair their terms are probably better than others but that's not their fault its the company's treating most employees like trash. At least they came in on their AT&T T&Cs My experience on BAE is that the... — read more 

Gross misconduct sackings in UK

I heard theyve sacked a few people UK side in the last few months on allegations of gross misconduct. Dont know specifics but heard it was either due to theft or sabotage Anyone have any details?

Approaching May what's the news on Pay??

This company is a joke, we are past the end of the year, they are expecting people to work hard and deliver but there's no talk about pay raises in any meeting. Your not going to get any positivity or growth working this way, keeping folks in the... — read more 

Questions about Latitude Finacial

FYI not a DXC employee. Apparently DXC was not handeling Cyber security for Latitude Finacial so how was a DXC account able to acess information held by other GSI? Presumably this happened on Vinod Bagals watch. Any idea if this is why he was... — read more 

Feeling exploited…

I'm glad that someone mentioned this problem in one of the threads and it concerns the fact that some of us train employees who are paid more than we are. I felt terrible when I found out that the person to whom I was trying to show the ropes... — read more 

How does DXC make a loss?

I’m 100% sure 80% of the resources are L2-L3 booking to L4 & L5 roles. Which means the client funds a L4 or L5 role at 45-65k but DXC have someone on 25-30k fulfilling the role. This is rife on ALL accounts. That’s why you see kids doing senior... — read more 

No good hires

When's the last time you can remember somebody qualified and experienced joined DXC? All the new people either have no idea what they're doing despite being in the industry for years or they have zero experience and it's on the rest of us to teach... — read more 

Death & illness on the BAE account

Without naming names (ive noticed posts that explicitly name anyone who isnt a publicly listed exec tend to disappear) this account seems to have the highest illness / fatality rate I've ever seen At least 2-3 people I've been aware having passed... — read more 

BAE time booking fraud

Again I reiterate, this is the Ponzi fraud I spoke of a few days ago. If every guy and his dog books time to BAE how is the account going to make any money. No wonder you don’t get pay rises. It’s a ploy to sc--w you guys over. Pay new starters... — read more 

Fraduluent billing to BAE on UK accounts

All legacy CSC and new / non HPE staff are told to bill everything to BAE even for the other UK accounts (Urenco, MOD, Leonardo etc) - even being told to bill training time to the customer. I asked my mamagement about this and the answer was... — read more 

Mikes Alive

That’s All. First communication from our glorious leader to staff in almost two years. I’d honestly thought he’d been placedon secret gardening leave or something.

Were DXC responsible for the Latitude Financial data breach?

Let’s see how long this thread lasts. I think yes, skeleton staff, probably Grads or apprentices shoehorned into L5 senior roles probably let the soap bar drop. What do you guys think? Vote Up for DXC responsible, down for client.

What happened to the CISO Email thread?

The mystery over the reasons behind the email deepens if someone in DXC goes so far as to remove a thread about it on this site. I wonder if we will ever discover why the sudden panic?

After $8M penalty I would expect...

For sure not too many raises. If any at all. Watering mouths over whose a 3. Possibly a new CEO to change things up... Someone with new reinventing the wheel ideas on cutting. For sure eventually... Mandates to return back to the... — read more 

DXC as a stepping stone

I feel like I'm wasting my time here. I wonder if DXC was at least a good stepping stone for most people here?

Where's McShouty?

We all know it's been more than a year since our glorious leader spoke to staff. There was not even a Christmas message. Now there isn't a "Thanks for all your hard work in FY23 and work harder in FY24" message like there was last year. Which means... — read more

I need to rant about the broken aerospace account

Reposting because the original disappeared. I don't know why as most of this is public knowledge and I don't owe either company anything. Stop deleting the posts dude. Basically around 2019-2020 a short bit into the HP ES merger (bearing in mind... — read more 

UK grads / apprentices - take note

So as an ex apprentice who left last year I warn any other would-be apprentices / grads to use DXC as a stepping stone to better things and expect nothing more. I was on less than £20k a year and despite being promised a pay rise to £30k+ for the... — read more
