Thread regarding DXC Technology layoffs

This is not an employee friendly place

Jobs sit empty, people quit without warning, and benefits keep shrinking while profits grow. Don't even get me started on the raises. This is not an employee friendly place and it never was.

@e2 For every 50 staff who have extra holiday. You have to employ someone else. Best nobody can afford or plan holidays for the master plan!

I’m in the UK and just looked at the leave I can buy but it looks like its been reduced to 5 days instead of the usual 10 days, so now the maximum you can have is 30 days and not 35.
Why on earth have they done this as theres no cost to DXC as you have to pay for them, not DXC?
It’s also seriously unprofessional to give no warning so that you could adjust your plans for next year.
As others have said below, coupled with the requirement to take 7 days off over Christmas and New Year its going to have a major impact on many of usz

If you are in India, Philippines, Vietnam, and maybe a couple other lower cost countries, you are probably pretty happy. DXC has been paying too much for supposed expertise, and to little for new university hires with no experience. Overall salary globally has declined to help reduce overall expense. Any other higher paid country is completely starved, no, or very small, pay rises, almost no promotion opportunities. But DXC is Paying top dollar for executives. The problem has been is that the majority of experience has been in the parts that are starved. This is a reason for no broad based growth IMHO.

For those who want a raise, it is actually very simple. Leave .

How difficult is that?

If you can’t leave then expect no raises and live accordingly.

For those who can leave, run to the nearest exit asap!

What was your 1st clue ? My GOD people DXC has never ever given annual merit increases and you a-holes bi--h about it every year.

Do something about it. If you can get a better employer then do it , if not shut up and do your job

Me i had enough money, worked from home for 12 of the 14 years

Some days worked my but off, others did noNd enjoyed the freedom

It’s up to you to enjoy and if you don’t like it DO SOMETHING about it

The recently published DXC Sustainability Report raises only one financial risk "failure to maintain competitive wages..."

So it's not just a few angry staff it's in a report we are supposed to share with customers and reference in rfps etc

What do you call a department of DXC employees?
A barrel of starving rats, fighting over the myth of food.....that never arrives

@c3 Yet still the sycophants cheer on every post our glorious leaders make. So we have the bubble round the leaders where everything is great and the rest of DXC which is angry and thoroughly demotivated, and no chance of bridging that divide

  • We've standardised terms - by choosing the bottom tier:
    • Working hours up to 37.5.
    • Flex holidays capped at 30.
    • And you all have to take a full 2 weeks off every christmas. Using 7 days annual leave.
    • Pay rises - it's 0% forever.
    • All bonuses scrapped.
