Pros

Get to be on-call for no additional pay. May get to be on a customer account where at least the customer appreciates you. If you're in a 3rd world country you may be ok actually.

Cons

HPE still owns 51% and Meg Whitman hasn't recouped her losses from her loss in the CA governor race. So let's lay off several thousand people. WFR practice - notified on Thur, last day is Fri. Severance seems to be a little less with every round. I think the max is 8 weeks currently. And if you're a rehire they don't count all your time, just your rehire time. Huge lack of transparency in pay - HUGE! My pay was 15% lower than the midpoint of the pay level below mine. They won't tell you the range. I was given 3 different stories on pay policies by 3 different managers. Very, very account centric - if you happen to be the best xyz techie in the world on the wrong account - you still get WFR'ed when your job goes away. One of the leading contractors, formerly held by HPE, is a less than average service provider. Very disorganized - DXC is basically a merger of 2 companies that have been economically bleeding for a while. Result - layoffs. Next result - organization instability. No real training policy except self training - on your own time and if there's a charge that's on you too.

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
