Thread regarding DXC Technology layoffs

It's not about money

Mike said its not about money, or pay rises, its about delivering, that's the people we want.

Is he on another planet, people want to be paid fairly.

If its not about pay why is he and his team getting paid $21million and $5million each.

If he believes in what he says they will not take more than $2million as that's plenty more than the rest of us will earn in a lifetime.

Please lead by example so we can see your genuine.

I left two months ago. My base salary now at the new company is roughly the same as my combined salary and car allowance at DXC. Firstly, it means that they pay in higher pension contributions (as it's salary). However, they also have a very impressive annual performance-related bonus scheme, so fingers crossed. Incentivisation = the exact opposite of DXC's management ethos. Even if I didn't earn a bonus, I'm working with a company where I actually like and respect the CEO, his team, and all of my colleagues (so far). Win win.

Really, executives that can lead, that's what DXC needs!

What a plonker...

Wow, just wow!

If Sal said that, he's even more delusional that Lawrie, and that's quite an achievement.

I'd hoped that Sal would transform the company, and I gave him 12 months to show that he would. I left, as if was clear after his first 12 months that he either wouldn't, or couldn't change the culture of DXC.

I only ever had excuses as to why bonus couldn't be paid (apparently a '1' at appraisal doesn't mean anything), saw my colleagues being culled at least 4 times a year, realised that promotions don't happen......

I tried twice for voluntary WFR and was rejected twice - apparently I'd been "saved". It didn't feel like being saved, it felt like being condemned. The final straw for me was when I was "saved" because the company needed me in a Programme Director role, but when I got there I discovered that 60% of the team I was supposed to be running, you guessed it, had been made redundant and the client was already seriously unhappy. I put my notice in there and then, without a new job to go to. It wasn't worth the stress of trying to placate the client on one side, and the chronically understaffed team on the other.

The market has been so good that I left DXC on Friday, and started the new job that I'd found whilst working my notice on the following Monday.

M2 is an arrogant f-ckwit! History is peppered with them - they always gr"wrong and usually come to a sticky end.

Yep same old same old - was same under disastrous leadership of Mike Lawrie and seems like Sal is following same path.

No pay rises since being at CSC and DXC - just had enough of putting my neck on the line and just do my contractual hours - not worth my bother doing any extra

I see loads of people leaving for better pay, if only he would look to incentive staff instead of screwing them lot of the delivery issues would go away.
