DXC might be underpaying you
I was laid off several months ago and every job offer I received since had a higher pay attached to it. And that's just the starting pay. This makes me think that DXC might be significantly underpaying its engineers. In any case, being laid off... — read more

What do you think the Q4 / Year End results are going to be and how do you think ML will spin it?

fed up waiting for WFR call
C'mon mikey boy - We're waiting for the big chop and sale. get a move on - no-one is going to leave when extra WFR cash can be sniffed.
I think it is unfair to suggest that DXC does not have a set direction. It certainly does have a direction; but you may need a shovel!

Just heard from my HR friend that with this year they start new performance management and compensation program. One of the key concepts to be introduced is that underperformers will be given choice to either leave or accept 5-10% salary decrease.
More acquisition related layoffs?
Since we know that layoffs follow every DXC acquisition - and not just consolidation related but also those that are needed to pay for the premium price - how bad do you think we'll be affected by the latest Luxoft purchase? I'm thinking another... — read more

DXC will pay $59.00 in cash for each Luxoft shares outstanding, representing an 86% premium to Friday's closing price of $31.70. WTF 80% premium, that is crazy! They can afford to buy companies at 86% premium to what they are worth, but they can't... — read more

DXC Self-Driving Car
Is anyone else worried that DXC is helping to develop a self-driving car? It seems like it would have the tendency to break apart and then drive over a cliff right before ejecting all its passengers.
