Pros

The company has been turned around from an old school out-sourcer to have a more balanced portfolio of services.

Cons

The CEO Mike Lawry ("well trousered Mike" ) took home around $26m in 2016 as a total package of salary and benefits but at the cost of massive redundancy programmes in the UK and other "high cost" countries. The business model is now all off shore development with only a thin veneer of "meet and greet/ hand-shaker" staff in the UK. Note to potential customers - certainly in the UK at least, the ability to deliver anything is under such severe resource constraints it is effectively broken. The latest, in a long succession of UK CEO has just left, lasting about a year which is par for the course given the previous four all lasted about a year each too. I suspect the core reason is impossible financial targets and micro-management for the US. The UK graduate training and recruitment programmes have effectively been cancelled. I can't think of any reason why a new person would want to join DXC UK.

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
