Thread regarding DXC Technology layoffs

DXC UKI - More cuts

174 posts to go from around 450 odd who are in scope.

Anyone got the email which was promised today to advise if they are in scope?

Am i right in understanding he said after this round no planned cuts in the next quarter?

Yes, aware of a number booking to client codes on various projects all getting the email to say they are at risk. These are crucial people to the projects. Do they want us to deliver? In my just under 5 years as contractor and permie I do not remember another time where a new WFR started before the last group had actually left. Very sad.

I’m trying to work out how these roles for redundancy are selected.

For those who have that email saying they are in a pool - do you mind me asking what job level you are (I know some L4s are included this time) and have you been booking to a WBS code for the past few weeks/months?

@3hqu sorry to hear this. At the risk of sounding callous, which business unit are you in?

I have received the email - (can't share whole email)
FY21 Q2 redundancy programme
Please be aware that your role has been identified within a scoring job pool from which, under our current proposals, we anticipate redundancies may be required.

Ain't over yet - myself and other colleagues in the UKI received emails last night - so whoever said they can't get their act together even organising wfr was right

9OwxRN! - another shoe shiner

May of my colleagues did attend the town hall and un/fortunately 1-2 are now in scope of redundancy.

So again DXC is cutting staff again in the UK - no real change though.

It was announced on the town hall call yesterday. Don't need to post the email to prove anything. If you work for the company you can listen to the replay.

It was the same message as always, we need to ensure our costs reflect our revenues. The inference being that revenue has reduced and so costs must come down in line with it.

For those asking 'who might be targeted' and whether it's any specific offices, no indication of that was given on the call.

This was for people in UK&I Delivery organisation only though, if you're not in Delivery this won't apply to you.

Don't worry if you don't get selected - made redundant this time around, you can guarantee in next 3-6 there will be another UK round of redundancies.

Has been the same story since CSC days back in early 2000's right up to DXC and beyond

@cgl+169OwxRN was there any indication if the layoffs were local to a set of offices or if it's over the entire UK&I?

Nothing yet. Originally they said today, then somebody extended the worry timeline by a day by including tomorrow. I would bet, true to form, they'll still be sending them out over the course of the next week.

They can't even get rid of people in an organised manner.

Yes, got my email soon after the call. Typically vague and doesn't say how big my pool is or anything particularly useful. Also not clear what I would be offered, but those on DXC contracts will only get the statutory redundancy payment (the minimum they have to pay legally). They talk about offering an additional payment of £2800 to people with less favourable CSC contacts and that those with HPE contracts should look at another link (might be on better terms).
