Contacting current employer

I'm applying for a job where it asks on the job application if they can contact my current employer. I definitely don't want my manager to know I'm applying for other jobs, so that's a big no from me, but I'm worried that will hurt my chances at... — read more

Let’s face it , it’s over.

Companies come and go . It’s a fact . DXC’s time is upon itself and it’s just taking its last few breaths before the plug is pulled. It’s just business. I know it’s hard for others to accept that the gravy train is pulling into its last stop, but... — read more

DXC removing older people even if skilled

Be careful when taking roles with DXC. They are very aggressive cost cutters and do not care for their employees. Ignore capabilities, do not value good performance, ruthlessly cost cut and remove valuable resources and replace with cheap resources... — read more

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!

DXC does exist yes. It's logo and its $28B of assets. If you're on the inside, it probably won't feel that you are working for a wealthy company and even if the many investigations from court cases brought from investors and previous employees were... — 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.
