DXC on resume
However it is now getting to the point that having DXC on your CV/Resume (unless you are a grad getting first job experience) is starting to hurt future career progression - why were you at DXC and/or why did you stay so long when clearly it was... — read more

Still afloat
From year to year, the situation in this company is getting worse. I used to think that DXC had a future but now I’m aware that the company is just barely keeping afloat. It makes no sense for talented people to stay in such a company. The... — read more
They are forgetting about offshoring disadvantages
How can I respect leadership whose only solution for almost everything is offshoring? I can hardly respect such leadership. In addition, they seem unaware that offshoring also has its disadvantages or are they totally ignoring them?
Job has been ‘offshored’
After many years of service I get a call from someone I do not know telling me that my role will be ‘offshored’ thus making my role redundant. Well good luck in ‘offshoring’ what I do. As for the situation. Well is poor form. — read more
Exhausted and burned out
Working at DXC has drained all my energy. As far as I can tell, that is the goal of this management, to completely exhaust us, long term employees, in order to bring younger employees in our place, regardless of their competencies?

DXC ANZ and attrition

Yet another investor comment
"Let's take a moment and congratulate DXC and it's management team on marking a new 52 week low today, despite the rhetoric and throwing one billion dollar at it. Unless they had a stellar quarter this is poised to continue to grind down to below... — read more
This is a downward spiral
As long as DXC cares about how to reward the execs, and not at all how to recognize and reward the efforts of all of us who do all the work, this will be a downward spiral. Unfortunately, I don't think they will change their philosophy. In fact... — read more
Finally an investor has woken up
"Just remember they are paying that imbecile Sal 21 million a year .... all he has done is fire people, remove the dividend, and change the color of the logo. What a dumpster fire" An investor comment in Yahoo Finance.

Tech honours dead???
Do we still have a tech honours program? Have seen nothing since the invite for new submissions last year. The public site still lists people who are no longer here... Are we a technology company with a technology career path?

EDS middle management...
...is slowing choking DXC. Like weed in a lake sucking up all the oxygen and not allowing other life forms to live. All of these leeches are more than 10+ years at EDS/HPES and have formed a strangle-hold with their network. Nor do they work, but... — read more
Town halls

If you want a raise, gotta go elsewhere

Founding principles abandoned
Quality used to be a thing before DXC. CSC Delivery, time, cost, quality. DXC took over and changed the balance scorecard to global financial, regional financial and reduced the customer qualitative bits and bonused the execs on, what one can only... — read more

The more I worked, the more work I got
The biggest mistake was when I thought it wasn't true what others were saying and that working hard couldn't go unnoticed or unrewarded. Not only was all that extra effort not rewarded, but I was gradually getting more and more work. And finally... — read more
News on layoffs?
Do we know if anything is coming?
Treat customers like cr-p, lose customers
DXC's overall attitude is completely objectionable. We are known for mistreating our customers just to be able to save a buck. That's not even a poorly kept secret anymore, everybody knows this. Then everybody acts shocked that we're losing... — read more
Leave for more money
I took a position with a starting pay that is higher than what I earn now and I couldn't catch up to if I stayed at DXC for another 10-15 years due to lousy raises. There's really no point in staying here if you're looking to improve your position in... — read more

Even on this forum I have seen tips like “do only bare minimum” or “let the others do the donkey work”. It's disgusting! These selfish people don't even take into consideration that someone has to get the work done and that their colleagues will... — read more
Where is the Mike Screamer playbook?
