So much for the internal comms around starting to grow the business
I've had one of these emails.
1. My area has too few people currently for the amount of work we have (even getting leave authorised is a pain).
2. I'm an integration specialist, and cover everything from old (FTP/AS2 etc.) to new (Rest APIs etc.), typically helping clients migrate to new ways of working, and haven't had a quiet moment at work for years now!
3. Due to my experience/knowledge, I'm regularly involved in all this so called 'digital transformation' stuff, so I'm actually delivering the things that DXC are specifically stating they want to expand on, but still want to let me go!
4. We were recently told we were moving into 'Growth', and so should expect to see an expansion in our area, due to high demand (the demand is still there, but we are being shrunk now instead!).
The only real reason I'm still with DXC is the office is an easy commute, and other potential IT employers in the region, are quite a distance away, so would mean and extra ~2 hours min of traveling each day!
