If you look at Sal's incentives, it's clear what was planned:
Sell DXC.
You could see that also in the interim design, the interim processes, and how lausy management treated customers and employees. It wa sn-t their top priority.
Mike I failled with selling the company, Mike II also missed the goal.
"DXC in a regulatory filing said that Salvino is entitled to receive severance pay in accordance with his employment agreement and termination without case. For termination without cause, according to a regulatory filing this past June, Salvino was eligible for $13.2 million in payments, which includes a $9.7 million cash severance benefit.
Had an acquisition of DXC occurred, Salvino would have been eligible for $63.9 million in cash- and equity-based payments in the event of change in control of the firm, according to that same U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filing."
