DXC Security exec: Yes, I'd have thought we'd spend more on certs and laptop kit for staff, too

Re: DXC layoff strategy

Im glad i saw this post, i feel exactly the same, its nice to know im not the only one (not that i want anyone else to feel the same).

My experience: i have worked for csc and dxc for 5 years, and i have never been given one project or piece of work!!!

I have literally had to go out and find work, like on dxc facebook. I have managed to book about 50% of my time to codes, but i only hear from management about 1 time a year. How i am not redundant is astonishing. But it makes you feel worthless, im being paid well, but literally have nothing to do, and any work i have is way above what im capable of. Im just taking a positive step and spending all my free time learning and getting certs so i can get out of here. Its all well being paid to do nothing, but theres no achievements, and you slowly loose your skills.

Best way to demoralise and kill a worker is give him nothing to do, it will slowly drive them crazy.
