Any time a new job is released for DXC it should have a fully billable WBS code so the time and cost of all the senior people involved is properly attributed. Idea for the day, might start and focus minds of the cost of recruitment vs pay rises. ... — read more
Stop and think about it before you leave
Several people I work with are all, "I'm done with this place, I'm leaving!" They don't have any backup plans or jobs waiting for them. They're just fed up with DXC. Now, I get it, there might be better jobs out there, but why would you put yourself... — read more
Employee terminations UK
Is it true a few UK staff were given terminations for misconduct in the last 12 months?
Preach!
Although the problem if they don't do pay rises this year is that they will be forced to go and recruit which is a double whammy, the cost of recruitment and the fact they will have to pay market rates, which are significantly higher than the few... — read more
That is not particularly satisfactory
I think that everyone should only work as much as they are paid in this company that does not value employees no matter how good they are. However, is that really satisfactory and good strategy long term? I no longer want to work at a place... — read more

Should DXC’ers Get litigious?
https://www.yahoo.com/news/worker-sick-leave-15-years-205443500.html This guy doesn’t even work and is suing for a pay raise. Maybe a class-action suit against DXC may be appropriate?

New UKI Leadership
As far as I know, there is no replacement for Lying Halbard. Drumhole is taking over a few service lines and someone else with do the rest. There is no replacement for LH! That could mean his salary might be given to us as pay rises. Wishful... — read more
Digital transformation at DXC
This Haldar guy in charge of digital transformation ...Everytime I speak to him he belches out hot stinky air...looks like he is full of it. What's your general impression of him?
Paying new hires too much
I've heard some of the new hires are making more than some of us who have been here for a while. What's going on here? I thought hiring a new, younger workforce was done to reduce costs. They're supposed to be cheaper, not more expensive than the... — read more
No raises again this year!
https://dxc.com/us/en/scuderia-ferrari Just quit. Give up on the empty promises and BS. Shine up the CV and go work for a company that gives two $h1ts about their employees. I did and got a $15k signing bonus and a 35% increase. But that was... — read more
Why are our Annual Reviews being held-up by Executive Management?
We were told by our manager that our Annual Reviews are still being held up by Executive Management. WHY? How many layers up does an employee Review go? C-Level? This is just a Review - not a Raise. We have been told numerous times before that... — read more
No high hopes for a raise
Compared to some people who do the same job as me in competing companies, I feel more than underpaid. My responsibilities grew but the pay did not. It looks like whoever wants the raise should first leave this place?

Ferrari Sponsorship Announcement
This is a bit crazy, they’ve signed a deal with Ferrari but no internal announcement? Is this because they fear the backlash?
Your employees and your customers matter
This is what Micky has written as advice in the past, looking after Customers and your people. Reality he does the opposite, maybe explains why he keeps losing business. Maybe he can listen to himself. "Inspire your people to embrace your... — read more
Appraisals and pay reviews
Before you know it it’ll be June. If the appraisals for most people were done in Feb-March, why does it take ~3 months for these number crunchers at DXC to ratify and release to employees? Given the fact that as a people manager I put my ratings in... — read more

DXC is a lost cause
DXC can’t automate anything. The big push last year was one of scripts to do simple repeatable tasks. No foresight in who is going to support these scripts ongoing. DXC is a lost cause. Leave if you can and if you can’t keep looking as something... — read more
Is SmartBuy still a thing?
When I left you could order whatever gear you needed via SmartBuy. Never went through DXC gear as the page was indefinitely blanked out for me. All you needed was a WBS & either a catalogue item or a quote from a supplier to get kit.
What changed with UK on call / overtime?

Secure account data backed up overseas

Don't bash UK networks
