Poll? What poll?
We asked readers what DXC should be known for... and of course you came up with the goods
El Reg this week asked readers to lean their e-bike against the Japanese maple that overlooks the strategy boutique to help Ed Ho, GM for the Build division at DXC Technology, determine what his employer's brand stands for. Our legions of readers, of course, knew exactly how to give DXC execs the full treatment, saving cash …

I saw a documentary about radio telescopes, apparently there was a very nasty accident at one a few years back, some idiot with walked out onto a walkway that was totally without any safety rails & without fall arrest equipment (The scarf he took with him was woefully inadequate for the purpose) & fell off as the thing was moving.

When they changed their name that's what I started calling our on-site DXC "consultants". Pissed them off to no end - but they deserved the reference.
Others I whipped out back in the day.
Don't eXpect / eXecute (the) Code / Change - they were supposedly helping us develop CICD/DevOps and whatever they wrote was either utterly wrong/useless and needed a total rewrite.
Damn eXpensive Crap

Have an upvote for Damn eXpensive Crap
DXC (or whaever they are called this week) really do need to make more staff cuts. The entire BOD and 'C' level execs for a start. Then 50% of the 'B' level execs who still can't organise a piss up in a brewery unless their secretary does it for them.
The poor grunts on the ground are being shafted by the bosses who should [see icon]

I have a complaint...
"DXC – mostly better than Capita!"
Really? Surely this is just optimistic Crapita customers thinking that DXC can't possibly be as bad without knowing the truth.
While Crapita will likely screw everything up, the reason DXC didn't screw up task X is because they fired the team. Oh? A screw up that eventually delivers something barely usable is still better than nothing?

Re: Did someone at The Register used to work at DXC, I think perhap so
"With the amount of articles about DXC and the negative slant, I think someone at El Reg used to work for DXC and did not leave on happy terms."
I'm confused. You have something positive to say about that festering shithole of a company? I would love to hear it!
