DXC is closing more Data Centers in the US, going to Tulsa OK and HPES Data Center. DXC is becoming HPE and CSC is going out the door.
I hear from friends that Chicago DC is closing as well
Overall, Chicago, Illinois is 31.5% more expensive than Tulsa, Oklahoma
Median Home Cost is the biggest factor in the cost of living difference.
Median Home Cost is 91% more expensive in Chicago.
" data center when you can put everything on AWS " , AWS is hosted somewhere and DXC would make more money if we host it and charge for it, that's why. We might as well give up if everything is going to be hosted on AWS. I wouldn't come to DXC for professional (had to laugh when I typed that) services for AWS, I go directly to AWS for help.
Yes, Chicago DC is going ASAP and moving to Tulsa.
Meriden is also for the chop and no more things are being deployed to Hyd or Noi DC's.
More to come
Why have a data center when you can put everything on AWS etc ..it's not a secret strategy
Yes there will be strategic decisions that favor some Legacy ES teams/infra but make no mistake DXC leadership and culture is very much Legacy CSC and it was awful in my Org, that’s why I got out after a year of DXC. I understand circumstances differ for people and folks are still at DXC for various reasons but I truly do wish folks still there the very best in moving away from this company, really you can do a lot better. Good luck!
Correct, also, their Security Operations Center in Plano was sold and they told the analysts to work from home, and in the last few days announced all L1/L2 analysts will be let go and replaced with offshore work.16
