Secret raises

Negative effects of a lack of training
Sometimes a young person who really has talent and a lot of energy and will to work, comes wondering in here. However, the first impression they get when they come to DXC is a disaster. It's a sink or swim situation here. I see new hires totally... — read more

The bare minimum?

Global ITO Capabilities Lean - Center of Excellence
You want to cut down on tickets, well I have a easy solution. FIX the root cause of the problem so it doesn't happen again. Were so big on closing tickets that most don't actually fix the root cause and of course it happens again and again.
It's about pay
As usual Mike's not listening. The highest voted questions were all relating to renumeration/pay yet he kept trying to say that's not the reason people are leaving. He knows it's the reason because he pays more to get external recruits. So his... — read more
Just leave already.

If its so bad why are so many metrics going up
So a quarter where BtB was sub 1. Not the end of the world. While most metrics still negative they are less negative than they were. Sure the share price is propped up by the buy back but so what - most of us dont have equity. Maybe the tide is... — read more
Every person for themselves

The world must be full of cr---y employers
If DXC made it among the top 1,000 best employers in the world (yes, it's only in No. 604 but you can't tell me it even being on the list isn't suspicious) then the world is filled with incredibly cr---y employers. How does a company that underpays... — read more
Absolute distrust!
I absolutely do not trust our leadership. I am skeptical of everything they say. Perhaps they should ask themselves why people do not trust them and how this distrust affects the company in general? But no, they persistently ignore obvious trust... — read more
Why wouldn't you?
There are much better employers out there, in fact you'd have to work very hard to find a worse employer than DXC. Having DXC on your CV will not block you from getting another role. Some employers will view it as -ve, especially if you've been... — read more

We know there'll be some if going by previous quarters, the only issue is how many will be affected.
Bad leadership

Don't celebrate just yet
