Sapphire Orlando was somewhat embarrassing

A considerable number of DXC colleagues travelled to Sapphire Orlando from around the world yet the DXC stand saw remarkably little activity throughout the event. In contrast neighbouring supplier stands were consistently busy and well engaged with customers. It was disappointing to see such limited interest at our stand and it speaks volumes about where DXC currently stands in the market.

T avoiding top WMAs in Orlando?

A little birdie told me that T was in Orlando with all the top performers in Wealth last week, but refused to interact with anyone. Any truth to this? Did she look like she wanted to be somewhere else? What was the vibe like? You'd think that a department that brings in billions of external $$ would get the best energy from the CEO. Just curious at this point.

Orlando, Florida


Layoffs are inevitable

Ok someone somewhere knows exactly what is coming in the next 4-6 weeks, if I am getting a layoff then some time to apply to other better companies would be very welcome! Someone has walked by a conference room and seen the closure lists or the new Org charts so come on spill the beans? Orlando got a big bunch of the frontline gone and by my calculations we need about 2500 more to go to hit the number we all keep hearing about!
