I've been hearing rumours of layoffs in Canada but haven't heard anything official. I'm 22 years in and don't want to walk away without a severance. I've been preparing for a couple years in getting Azure certifications to make myself marketable... — read more
Merger
Is this going to get acquired, seems to be one of those where valuation don't match performance... What do you guys know/think?
Once you don't care anymore
I don't care anymore if I get fired. The pay level became so low compared to the outside, that finding another job is no threat anymore. Manager asked me to jump into another account for technical firefighting. Told him to go look in those... — read more
What happens to DXC Corgis?
The whole world is worried about "the queen's corgis". Washington post writes a full page on it. Seems like no analyst or "wail" street is interested in the condition of DXC Corgis under this leadership. Isn't it strange times?
Now we know why EY purchased the MS Dynamics team from DXC....

The cons outweigh the pros
Only one thing still keeps me here, and that is that I can't get a better offer. I think that is the number one reason why most of us are still at DXC. Is there perhaps another reason to stay? I doubt it. On the other hand, there are too many... — read more
US - Another round of WFRs today

Glassdoor 1* campaign
For people reading this start leaving 1* reviews on Glassdoor in protest at the cancelling merit rises this year. I don’t think a single other U.K. company is doing this (wage freeze)
We would have been miles better with ATOS
Atos are in a bad way but at least they treat their employees as assets, and not as mugs. "Atos earns ‘Europe’s Best Workplaces’ certification from Great Place to Work® Paris, France – September 9, 2022 – Atos today announces that it has been... — read more

Working longer hours only deepens the agony
No one gets paid overtime and given the chronic under resourcing, which is only going to get worse as every one either leaves or gets WFRed , we all work longer hours than we should but we only have ourselves to blame. Just work your contracted... — read more
No word from Human Resources
The head of HR makes just shy of 5 million dollars a year and they can't compose a simple email to tell us that there are no pay increases for the people who actually serve the clients. It's a disgrace ! #DXCsucks
The infamous no pay rise mail
"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
"Project Managers don't get overtime"
Anyone else hear this line? It seems to me (at least in the UK) that PMs get routinely shafted with being expected to do out of hours work and other stuff beyond their contracted hours but don't actually get compensated for it because "lol PMs dont... — read more
Huge pay increase
I often read posts here about how people got huge increases when they quit. Some mention 40% or 50% increases, and some even 60% higher pay in their new companies. It's hard for me to believe that. These must be very rare cases or am I wrong? I got... — read more
No Pay Reviews This Year - Confirmed
The senior leaders got their reviews didn't they?
DXC Stock Price
For the last 10 years, every single move from top management has been driven by one and only one consideration:- Share Price. This has come mostly at the cost of human resources, and everything else that goes with it such as image erosion... — read more
Let's see how many of you see this as a long-term option
If nothing changes regarding working conditions, what are the chances you’ll still be working at DXC in a year? Or even in six months? I know a lot of new employees are quick to leave as soon as they get a true taste of DXC, but I'm more interested... — read more

DXC not turning up
Contrary to what Mike says what we should be doing, "turn up when we say we will", something strange going on. DxC cancelled from attending a Deutsche Bank conference in Las Vegas on Thursday. A DXC spokesman declined to comment.
I've learned DXC is not a good place to grow your skills
My main goal when joining was to grow my skills and learn. It took me about two months to realize that was not going to happen. Most of the time I'm forced to learn things on the go and on my own, with very little help from others. It's not a big... — read more

Not even a raise would keep me here any longer
The manager is more than difficult to deal with, opportunities for advancement are very rare... Some say that at least they have a good work-life balance here, but I had a great colleague who literally worked 7 days a week and in the end he was... — read more
