Removal variable pay from FY22 onwards

Received an email from HR informing me that I am not longer eligible for variable pay, effective immediately for FY22 and the future. These x-x really understand how to motivate staff to go the extra mile. Line management “leadership” is hiding in... — read more 

History repeats itself

DXC Shareholders denied DXC named executives their annual compensation in shares, according to the latest SEC filing. Primarily due to the free-fall of the company's annual revenue numbers (From $25b to about $17b in 4 years). Did you know that... — read more 

Who here is NOT looking to leave?

I realized it's going to be easier to count the people who are not planning to leave DXC than those who are looking left and right for a way out. Judging by the people I talk to, a good 90 percent of the workforce is not happy with at least some... — read more

It's not about money

Mike said its not about money, or pay rises, its about delivering, that's the people we want. Is he on another planet, people want to be paid fairly. If its not about pay why is he and his team getting paid $21million and $5million each. If he... — read more

Does DXC force their management to promote?

So I’ve had a LinkedIn connection with an ex-coworker since way when we both were still working at HPE (we both traveled from P&G -> HP -> HPE. I left HPE and he’s moved on to DXC in the transition. All of a sudden he’s promoting DXC on LinkedIn like... — read more 

Town Hall way forward or kept in the dark?

What will mikey say in the upcoming town hall? Do we think he will discuss growth details of plans, future eg how much, when, what, and how? Will he share any ideas beyond high level logos, stack, new dxc etc. Anything on chopping, streamlining... — read more 

Are they actually afraid to do the right things?

I wonder if they are actually afraid to focus on changes that would support the growth of this company? I believe that DXC needs profound changes if it wants to achieve organic growth and changes imply risk and uncertainty. And while they’re afraid... — read more 

They only know how to plan layoffs

Where has the development of true vision, defining targets, focusing on systematic growth and long-term plans gone? It seems to me that planning a direction in which they want to take this company is reduced to just planning cuts. And then they... — read more

Let me break it down for you

Hard work and dedication won’t make your job secure. You may get a bonus, a small raise or even a great performance evaluation. However, everyone that is in the rank and file is expendable. There is no “maybe” about it. In the end, if your salary... — read more

This is where I started to hate my job

And I'm sure I'm not the only one? I thought I loved my job very much until I came here. That’s the biggest mistake I’ve ever made. Doing the same job here and in another company is a completely different thing. It's getting harder here. It is like... — read more 

Enough of how sh*t DXC is when will it fold and how?

My pick is 2024 when Mikey2's numbers don't come through and the stock free falls. The stock will stabilize between $5-7 (and DB will still be saying "hold") and the cycle will start again with Mikey3 and Steakcutter3 and what remains of the legacy... — read more

Stinking appraisal process

Yes, another stinking appraisal process kicks off with pointless goals that don’t relate to the job you do. I’ve basically already resigned myself to a 3-4. I used to be consistently 1-2 but they’ve beaten that out of me as it’s meaningless. I think... — read more

Nobody here cares about you

DXC couldn't care less about its employees. We work our behinds off and they reward us with nothing. Actually, their idea of a reward is to give us even more to do and then give us a pat on the back as they spout out some nonsense like "we need more... — read more 

I wish somebody had warned me, so I'm warning you

Don't get too good at what you do. In most other companies, that would mean a certain promotion. Here, you can get stuck in your role easily. Your manager will not want to let you go because you make him/her look good. All your hard work will be for... — read more

All that will remain

There are many people trying to leave. Once that happens what will be left are the ones who feel they can’t leave the industry, are afraid to strike out on their own or the ones who think they won’t get paid enough anywhere else. I hate to see what... — read more 

People staying here shorter and shorter

Some stayed much longer than me but DXC was looking for every way to get rid of such people. I managed to stay here for 7 years and could hardly wait to get a better opportunity to leave. A colleague who came here a year ago left just recently... — read more 

How do you do it?

How do you balance your work and your life? I keep working at least 60-hour weeks and I often can't even get my weekends just for myself. It wasn't like this before, but since we lost half of our team in the latest layoffs, it's been he-l. I'm not... — read more

A question for those who got a raise

Why illusory promises?

To allow employees to get their hopes up that they might get a raise and then lie to them is really awful. I thought of staying here for a while longer, but after this I changed my mind. If anything can undermine employee morale and sink a company... — read more
