Thread regarding DXC Technology layoffs

The highest paid CEO in our state

He goes on about market rates but he takes the highest pay in our state.

The performance is down hill.

And overall he has no comment.

How he gets away with it in broad daylight is amazing.

Virginia’s most highly compensated CEO in 2021 was Michael J. Salvino of DXC Technology Co. in Ashburn, a Fortune 500 information technology services and consulting company. His pay totaled $28.716 million, a 32% jump over 2020, when he earned $21.733 million.

That compensation bump doesn’t necessarily correlate with the company’s financial performance, however. DXC posted $16.265 billion in 2022 revenue, down 8.26% from 2021, when it reported $17.729 billion. That, in turn, was 9.44% less than the $19.577 billion DXC reported in 2020. The company’s stock was trading at $26.60 in early September, down from a high of $96.75 per share in 2018.

DXC declined comment for this story. Salvino, who is also DXC’s chairman and president, has told investors that DXC has been going through a multiyear “transformation journey” to become better focused and more cost-effective. In earnings calls this year, the company said it missed some revenue goals after encountering unexpected costs and other disruptions associated with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which prompted DXC to withdraw business from Russia.

In August, the company posted first quarter 2023 earnings of $3.71 billion, down 10.5% from the same period a year ago. “Our transformation journey is creating value and we are confident that we are taking the right steps for DXC in the short term that will set us up for success in the long term,” Salvino said in a statement at the time.

What caliber of execs

One's which cant even grow the company after 3 years,

One's which can't pay staff,

one's who shrink the company by 1/2 in 3 years

One's who don't follow their own words or promises

People who take phenomenal amounts of pay and leave staff with nothing

You could hire id--ts who could do a better job a lot cheaper

This shower need replacing quickly

Many people say Mr Mc Shouty laughing all the way to the bank (along with Mikey no 1) whilst bullying and pressurizing employees (no wage increases nor training) into quitting and WFR to get their much needed $$ bonus. This is way most US NYSE companies now operate for short term quick make a $$ operation and plying itself with more debt and lack of long term growth - especially with Shouties sell and buy share back scheme to artificially inflate the share price of DXC - thus making more $$ millions.

Please, do join DXC on their transformation journey. DXC will transform from a $28Bn company to one worth almost nothing. It will transform all of its staff by laying them off just as fast as it can. It will transform the value of its shareholder investments from $97 per share to junk in as little as 10 years. While doing all of this, it will also continue to provide shockingly bad service to all of its clients

What an amazing transformation. A perfect example of how not to transform an IT company.
