Is Voluntary Redundancy still available after declining
Recently I declined my offer but I’m starting to regret it. I really cannot see how we are going to deliver in the future. Does anyone know if it will be accepted if I ask again now, given that people are at risk of CR.

Push back on age discrimination at DXC
You can push back if you feel you are being discriminated on age ; I did. I invested $2,000 in a lawyer to represent me and received a 4 month severance from DXC HR in the USA. It was worth it. Document your facts and put it forth via a lawyer to... — read more
Can anything be done to ward off being laid off?
Might seem like a stupid question, but I'm desperate. This close to retirement the last thing I need is to find myself on the job market once again. Is there anything to be done?

New jobs question
How easy/hard was it to find a new job after leaving DXC? Laid off, fired, quit...it doesn't matter, I'm just curious if you have found a replacement by now.
Lazy Outsourcing
DXC saying it is moving labor to low-cost countries is just a smoke screen for investors. Companies that are truly interested in this explore all BRIC options and even options outside of that such as places like the Philippines, Malaysia, Vietnam... — read more
Surprise, Surprise! Another Hurricane; another DXC center shutdown
First Puerto Rico, and now New Orleans impacted by a weather disaster. Did they not expect such weather and impact? Sure, their cost-of-living is far most below major US metros. Well, so is their service and availability too.
DXC UK&I - lots of redundancy pools open
Focus is certainly on cost cutting and consolidating site working. Don't see much concern for client service. Presume driven by the top-level finance figures and years of strategic neglect 'too big to fail' (?)
Class Action Age Discrimination Suit coming soon!
Over 50 years old and displaced by younger, unskilled, untrained, cheap help from "Worst Shore" countries. Watch for a new class action coming from a heavy hitter law firm. Better lawyer up Mikie~! Interview calls should start soon.

Official - Chesterfield RDC to close
all delivery staff in Chesterfield are to be made redundant using a 15 day consultation which I believe is illegal! Clients not been told yet, it is impossible to do this without the service being totally broken, appears that DXC don’t care!
Lay-off ?
I’m in the US. If I accept my package which I haven’t seen yet, can I still apply for unemployment or does accepting that void it? I’ve been hearing multiple things.
If you want to build a career, move on from DXC
Even the new employees knows this. None of them are here for more than a year or two. We are a good stepping stone for something better, and that's it. Sadly, some of us can't find a better option due to our age, but I don't blame one bit all of... — read more

I am in delivery. Have heard that the large BPS contract with MetLife is in jeopardy. The DXC general manager does not even know it. What a shame; this was a 1B Contract for over 10 years that CSC signed in 2016. Guess this is just another example of... — read more

Although it doesn’t make it any less of a general question, just to be clear, I'm asking about US locations. If anyone has any info about potential locations in the US, that could be affected by layoffs in the next week, please post it here.
Mike Lawrie doesn't know how to do business.
As DXC lays off employees they are laying off positions that bring in far more revenue than the cost of the employee. DXC has also laid off positions that are listed in the contracts or even laid off to the point where the accounts are not able to... — read more

The name behind DXC an it's secret meaning.
'Hewlett Packar' & 'DXC' & 'omputer Sciences Corporation'. The 'X ' represents a crossed axe both axing HPE and CSC employee both at the same time.

Is everyone in or have any managers not made the pool?
Skilled IT Workers are paid more for a reason. Is Lawrie Completely Thick ? !!
I think Lawrie is lacking adequate mental ability. For a CEO not to realise that skilled IT worker are paid more for reason and think school leavers can there place, is certainly not thinking correctly. I think DXC needs to get a CEO who understands... — read more
