Thread regarding DXC Technology layoffs

@3mqg

Yeah. Jimmy Reckon........

DXC will make a great company..... all the comment posted in negative here shows those frustration who could not stand in CSC/HPE-ES for long time. DXC will prove to be the global best soon.

This one REALLY cracks me up:

"Our world-class talent is our driver of change, working alongside clients to help them transform for the future, without breaking what works." What they really mean: Our world-class talent - (who they don't pay for crap, nor respect) working along clients (who will soon be on to the scam as DXC whacks the world class talent)..... without breaking what works (we save that for the executive class, who among themselves have bought several well working companies and broken them irretrievably in their search for mo' money).

@MCHSD8I-azp:

The fact is that the investments in centers of expertise and in hiring young people has taken place outside of North America.

From an demographic perspective, this is a dying organization in USA as no new hires have been brought in.

Had the leaders of EDS spent money on automation and efficiency around 2005, there would have been many more US jobs and less acrimony.

But they did not; presently they have to go through automation and being efficient as all the major vendors are in India now and their cost structure is no longer determined by the expensive First World staff.

The ITO comment from @dqj s absolutely correct. An incedibly cumbersome, restrictive and inept organisation led by unimaginative drones who know nothing of customer service but live by the P&L from Account Delivery Lead level up. Not one of them has the spine to push back on demands for headcount cuts.

In one of the posts, third world Indians were said to be the culprits. Totally sick comment from a first world person, possibly thrown out of HP.

All the best from Bangalore.

Choo! Choo! All aboard the failboat.

What a load of bollocks. Taking two sh-- companies and sticking them together does not yield anything other than a larger steaming pile of sh--.

1) DXC still have to sell the HP "Best of breed" hardware that customers and techies know isn't. There goes the independence argument.

2) DXC fail to understand that ITO is broken because the management model of it is broken. Throwing more offshore workers into the mix is just going to break it even more.

3) DXC have a MASSIVE morale problem. Most people are either looking for another job or waiting for redundo. Either way, not a good set of people to impress your clients with. Then again, if you treat your employees like sh-- what do you expect?

DXC is made up of a bunch of leftover employees from a once great company. These employees are considered low quality, 3rd world Indians, and other best shore people whose only objective in life is to work for low pay. They lack the necessary resources, skew the financials, promote continued WFR cost reductions to meet profit objectives and have ONE BIG black eye in the market place. They are on there own now and watch just watch how this company shrinks into obsurity. They still have to remove 1/2 of the workforce yet to get down to the stated 59,000 employees desired. Glad i am out of this situation and hold no stock in this company and never will. This company just like our government is made up of a bunch of political and educational rejects.

DXC won't be able to truly lead until they make the market aware of their existence. Everyone knew Hewlett-Packard and EDS -- no one know who DXC is, and the fact that DXC isn't an acronym will be be a challenge in its own right.

They can claim what they want in their marketing as long as it isn't a blatant lie. What DXC REALLY want to claim is that they are the world's leading IT Services company. Problem is they aren't; the only meaningful way to measure it is by revenue and IBM hold that particular crown. So, they claim that because IBM produce hardware and software they aren't independent, hence the "world's leading independent end-to-end IT Services company".

It's essentially meaningless.

How can they call themselves "the world's leading" when they've only been in existence couple of days?
