Pros

I find it really hard to find any pros of working for DXC, but I will try. - Chaos breeds opportunities. If you are smart and proactive, you can get a role and experience far above your grade. This is not an intention by design though. DXC simply lacks enough capable people. Anyone willing to take a challenge, to step up and fix a mess will get noticed. - A few good teams, and people.

Cons

- Rock bottom morale. Because of the neverending redundancies, people have lost the will to live. Most see the job as just a paycheck. - The company is ruled by a profiteering regime. All power is effectively concentrated in Mike Lawrie's hands. Any dissenting voices get shut down. You only have to look at the attrition rate among veeps and executives. - 0 pay raises. - No vision or strategy. The maximisation of shareholder value is not a valid mission, especially in this day and age. Shareholder value is a byproduct of a successful business, not vice versa. Jack Welch famously called it "the dumbest idea". - Probably one of the highest attrition rates in the industry.

Pros

Company just born out of a merger of CSC and the old EDS spun off by HPE Seems to be a good match of size and capabilities A lot more business opportunities, a much larger sales and delivery capability Great people in the trenches, smart, talented, experienced Stock price through the roof for three years straight...but options no longer given out to employees Brilliant CTO

Cons

Same CEO as CSC, which means no raises or bonuses, constant cutting (value retention) Drive for more off-shoring, landed resources (Indians brought to America on bogus visa justifications, for six month intervals). Replacing people with software as fast as possible Replacing experienced people with inexperienced people as fast as possible Ridiculous sales goals set by people who have never sold anything in their lives
