Thread regarding DXC Technology layoffs

Building Closures

Just wondering, with the announcement of the declining losses etc.

Surley the company must have saved $$$$$s on the rental/energy/water/maintenance costs on all of the buildings we shut down after they converted a huge wad of us to become virtual workers!

Doesn't that put a small dent in this huge round of cost saving they need to find!?

Or are you telling me we have already reaped those rewards and were still in the do-do!

Or... I wouldn't be surprised if they converted most, yet many refuse to and so we still have a large estate! Or maybe they just have buildings laying empty.

Time to disembark!? Or hang on for a big fat redundancy pay off from the layoff!

: @1mjd+1i9RF8f0 - - Bang on. How did you know this. Were you a fly in the wall in the EVP meeting? When people see the layoff no one will ask for a rise. Traditional corp strategy. By the way what is your employee number 😂

If you work in Europe and have worked a while, with a thick skin of DXC resilience and an ability to breath toxic air, then wait for the big fat redundancy. You shouldn't have long to wait, as DXC have already promised to cut costs by $500M by end of year. They have a tradition of starting in Q3. Although I guess they might start early this year, so the bad news communication can smother the expected pay rise communication. That way one communication does the job of two.

I seem to remember some finance dweeb telling us about how much money they'd racked up by virtual first...

Although it does seem to have petered out like everything else right now. Nothing ever seems to get 100% finished here.

The number of employees wfh is nothing like the 90% they wanted to achieve, of that I am certain. I'd be surprised if its 50%.

Those are already eaten up and declared as savings quarters ago. Need fresh blood
