Thread regarding DXC Technology layoffs

@j8 You say your happy working from home , but you are not working and can / should be fired for cause and this receive nothing. No I am not management I worked at DXC for 13 years with 2 pay increases and always worked hard as I was professional

@pp I am not left 3 years ago, Jan 28, 2023. Four (4) pay increases , more vacation time than I know what to do with, and good health insurance

why are you still there

20 hours of work and getting paid for 40 hours is a pretty sweet deal to me. It's the perfect setup for a side hustle. DXC has decided to run the way it does. I'll take full advantage of that.

@m5 But anyone who came from CSC or EDS/HP are on much better terms than that, but it boils down to a years salary, £30k tax free, and usually 3 months PILON too.
So it is worth it for me to get paid to sit around at home, doing what little work I get assigned, in the hope that I'll get a years salary? yes it is.

I used to be engaged and hard working but DXC have destroyed that, so they get what they deserve, zero effort and abuse

@m6 As I said earlier no point, you can't currently comment on any DXC post, comments are disabled. Maybe the many comments by the great and glorious Ed has caused them too much grief?

@h2 Use a fake account, its not rocket science!

@j8 redundancy. how much would you personally get as an example . Axs I see it is not more than $40,485.00 USD. So you would waste your time for 40 Grand ?

Here you go,— the official, correct, England/UK redundancy calculation method, based entirely on UK government rules.

Everything below is grounded in the GOV.UK sources you triggered in the search results.

# 🇬🇧 How Statutory Redundancy Pay Is Calculated (England / UK)

Statutory redundancy pay is based on three factors:

## 1️⃣ Your age during each full year of service
For each full year you worked:

Sources: GOV.UK redundancy rights.

## 2️⃣ Your full years of service

• Only full years count
• Maximum counted = 20 years
  Source: GOV.UK calculator description.

## 3️⃣ Your weekly pay (capped)

• Weekly pay = your average weekly earnings over the 12 weeks before notice
• Capped at £719 per week (2025–26 rate)
  Source: GOV.UK calculator and rate tables.

# 🧮 The Formula

[
\text{Redundancy Pay} = (\text{Years at each age band}) \times (\text{Weeks per year}) \times (\text{Weekly pay cap})
]

Example structure:

• Years under 22 × 0.5
• Years 22–40 × 1
• Years 41+ × 1.5
• Add them up
• Multiply by weekly pay (max £719)

# 📝 Eligibility
You qualify if:

• You’re an employee
• You’ve worked 2+ years continuously
  Source: GOV.UK redundancy rights.

# 🧾 Tax

• Statutory redundancy pay is tax‑free up to £30,000.

If you want, Ed, I can calculate your exact amount again or run a comparison showing:

• What you get with the cap
• What you would get without the cap (useful for negotiation)

Just tell me your age, years of service, and weekly pay — or I can reuse the numbers you gave earlier.

@j8 Well said. Couldn’t put it better myself. Been CSC/DXC 30+ years. Seen and heard it all. Same old recycled twaddle. Basically you can’t polish a t-rd and it won’t get better for employees anytime soon. Quiet quitting doing the bare minimum waiting for the right time for VR - on my terms. That’s the out-shine, out-perform, out-whatever for me!!

@cv We're not stupid. We know the score. The company can pay us to be on the books all it likes. I accept the 0% pay rise. In return we'll be ignoring all the noise. We're not contributing, we don't care. We're happy working from home. Ie. doing anything but DXC tasks. Yeah we could go get a job elsewhere on more money, where you have to go to an office 3 days a week and actually achieve something every day. Is the extra money worth it? Maybe not - and that's why we're all still here. Just waiting on a redundancy. Which they seem quite happy to dish out to people as the accounts naturally come up for renewal - and aren't renewed. The company made it's choices - so did we.

That's odd, on LinkedIn comments have been disabled on all DXC posts.

Wonder what triggered that, they were on last time I looked

Stupid advice... Post on LinkedIn so they can blackball you. I knew HR was not smart but this play and advice is something else. Lol. Keep the pay checks, look for a job and stop working . They can't fire too may ppl they need the numbers to look good. Workers are the most powerful now than they have ever been

People are already flooding Linkedin with sarcastic comments about the company. Only the desperate employees are hitting that like button. Most just couldn't care less about the noise DXC makes.

All the guy's still stuck here have no choice - eternal work from home and so lazy and out of touch that there will be no jobs for them outside. It is sad - what happened to this once smart workforce
