Pros

I used to be able to say that work here was a job, but I feel this is more akin to Last Comic Standing than a job.

Cons

DXC is abandoning employment in North America and Europe in favor of becoming an Infosys or TATA, with employment almost entirely in India and the Philippines. Of course there will be middle and upper management in Europe and the US, but anything below that is being eliminated in a manner that is akin to a 5 year old throwing darts at a wall. They are going full in on "Digital Transformation", but that is just a buzzword way of converting people's experience into a computer program that handles problems cheaper than the cost of the employees. The problem with that idea is that almost everybody they have left --except for a few pockets here and there-- doesn't have enough front line experience in managing servers/apps/whatever to be able to convert their knowledge into these digital programs. Let's put it this way: every account has its unique quirks, and those have to be accommodated into any Digital Transformation. (Or eliminated, which frequently means that DXC ends up butting heads with the company they were hired to handle IT for, and you can guess what happens when DXC imposes "industry standards" and then breaks something.) However, DXC doesn't have the personnel either to convert those quirks into that Digital Transformation or to maintain them once converted. So what about Cloud? Well, DXC claims they are all in on the Cloud, but they're eliminating either cloud personnel or entire teams left and right, so nobody seems to know what they're doing there. DXC is also eliminating personnel without telling account teams, either, and those account teams only find out when the CUSTOMER tells them that it happened. Yes, communication is that bad in DXC land. If you are looking at this company for employment, remember all of this and think hard about why you'd ever consider working here.

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
