Return To Office Sept 1st
RTO is slated to start from next Monday, has anyone actually been mandated to be present in the office by their direct manager or has it died a quick death as usual?
September layoffs
Any truth to the rumors?
Any UK new business?
Lots of exit work on current accounts coming to an end and not being renewed. Always plenty of positive ‘pipeline work’ mentioned on town halls but we know the score. Every one I know is quiet quitting and has been since virtual worker was forced on... — read more
Five years without a raise and counting
Anybody else in a similar situation? And before you come after me, yes, I'm trying to leave. I'm just having no luck so far.
Whats so wrong with this company
Useless Brock used to say working on single accounts environments was no longer future and you would be marked down for it. Now his saying leverage is no longer future. The guy just waffles on and doesnt give an answer to any question nor does he... — read more
Are silent layoffs happening?
I’ve been hearing more and more about small numbers of people being let go here and there. Weren’t we supposed to have an official large round of layoffs in Aug or Sept?
United Airlines Outage?
Is this DXC's fault? Or more an issue of running infrastructure from the 1970's???? The Unimatic system is used by airline United Airlines to store flight information, with the system going down on Wednesday for reasons as yet unknown. The company... — read more
Anything new on rumored layoffs?
Wasn't something supposed to happen before the end of August?
How to end this company faster
They have keep coming with excuses to extend the milking using phrases eg "Technical Debt", "Zero Client", "Cloud first", "Ai". Instead of a long protracted end the best way would be to make the Useless Brock the CEO and end it in 6 months, what do... — read more
What would you do ?
So you've become DXC CEO. You can see it's in trouble and staff morale is rock bottom. The management team are struggling to turn this ship around and clients are leaving rather than renewing. New logo business is scarce. What do you do ?
Can’t wait to watch this major fail unfold
Leadership has no real understanding of what AI can and can’t do, or where it fits within the processes. They’re about to learn the hard way. If I get cut along the way, I’ll consider it a favor.
Drummers blueprint
Surprised nobody has mentioned it... Or did everyone give up after the volume level was quieter than a whisper and they didn't manage to fix it.
Managers to be replaced
Machines are being lined up to takeover for managers following DXC 's disastrous record of managing people to goals. Raul announced on Friday a switch in people management from humans to machines. An opening of Pandora's box. An implicit message... — read more
The end is near.
The next round will not offer any severance or benefits. Better secure what you can now.
Hindsight is 20/20
If I could give one piece of advice to my younger self, it would be to run far away from this place. The stress, the politics, the toxicity, I think I've been damaged by it all beyond repair. I thought I was building a solid foundation, but it set me... — read more
AI is coming
The company has rightly recognised that AI is coming—but seems to believe it’s some kind of magic bullet that will allow it to run the organisation on a skeleton crew. It’s busy tweaking policies and structures in the hope either naively or... — read more
What are we all paid?
I’m getting paid 47k USD and am titled a senior in one of the cyber teams. This is not a liveable wage for the country I live in…
Raul F gets $16.7 for a part time role
Is he worth it ? only has to work part time at DXC, whilst he runs his other business, DXC is still shrinking and he was brought in as a Growth CEO nearly 2 years ago. His main focus remains internal employees utilization rather than Company... — read more
DXC will monitor you
Its ok for the main man to run his sports businesses on the side, but his now trying to watch what you do. What a hypocrite, he should look in the mirror, and resign from his other interest whilst his working at DXC, and taking millions of... — read more
Why did sales grow in the U.K.?
People here keep posting about how DXC is bleeding work in the U.K. and how big accounts like BAE are leaving. Yet DXC posts 1% growth in the region even after adjusting for a weak USD (thanks orange man). I'm an outsider living in the U.S. so I have... — read more
So what will they monitor and how?
The snooping charter will be dropping on us soon. Does anyone actually know what they can’t and can’t monitor? DXC and Rahool couldn’t organise an or-y in a br----l so I’m not too confident they have the skills or tools themselves…. However DXC... — read more

our company is at a pivotal moment
From Raul’s email today (08/01/25) he says: “Following our recent earnings update, it’s clear that our company is at a pivotal moment.”. The big question is: how pivotal? Takeover, asset stripping, bankruptcy, mass redundancy etc. pivotal? Looking... — read more
Quarterly Report
The current numbers don't convince me. Shareprice is up 4% after close of market. So at least some one is happy with only 4% revenue decline yoy. Bookings are going up. But this was told in some of the previous quarters as well. Even with a book... — read more
Is DXC Management reading this board?
Mary gone, Howard gone, Brady Gone, Kristi gone, now Brock has been demoted, I'm sure I'm forgetting some others....
Useless Brock Demotion
Looks like they have finally listened to the staff and realised how much damage the useless Brock has done to morale and decided to sideline him, his managed to keep hold of Ersk, feel sorry for those there.

Pay Rise 2025
Heading into August shortly. Has anyone heard of the % award for this year, or for alot of folks it will be for this decade. No doubt the Execs will be taking pay cuts for bad performance and years of taking rises.
Secret network patching failures
So how long until the client find out their secret network hasnt been patched since 2022?
Working at DXC was one of the most demoralizing experiences of my career
The company is plagued by poor leadership, constant restructuring, and zero strategic vision. Morale is perpetually low, and any talent that remains is either burned out or desperately looking for a way out. Promotions and recognition are... — read more
I never hated my job as much as I do working at DXC
This is a whole new level of toxicity and incompetence wrapped up in a smiley corporate mask pretending everything is fine while the ship sinks.
Return to Office
Does anyone know what the heck is going on here? I have asked several managers and each one gives me a different story.
rumours of mandatory staff rotation every three years being announced
Anyone else heard anything like this?
DXC Champions Club
Aruba jolly…. Wasn’t sure if this was a pi-s take or not.. Honestly can’t tell. The company can’t possibly be having a sales jolly while banning all internal travel in the U.K. can it ?
Looking back, joining DXC was a huge mistake
The people in charge avoid accountability at all costs, and it only gets worse the higher up you go. They know exactly what they’re doing, and they just let the damage pile up. The culture is built on fear and silence. I've been looking for a way out... — read more
I, for one, would welcome another WFR round
Getting laid off sounds more like a rescue mission to me. This job? It’s one big mental health crisis generator - stress, chaos, zero support. I get that some people need this job badly, and I wish them all the luck in the world. But for many of us... — read more
