DXC does not make offers of employment via social media networks and DXC never asks for any money or payments from applicants at any point in the recruitment process, nor ask a job seeker to purchase IT or other equipment on our behalf. More information on employment scams is available here.

  • Healthcare Strength Health coverage includes multiple national carrier options and plan types, with HSA eligibility where applicable. Feedback suggests the medical, dental, and vision lineup is broad and comparable to large-firm offerings.
  • Retirement Support A 401(k) program with employer matching and an annual true-up is available, with standard vesting provisions. This structure can help employees capture matching contributions over the year if contribution rates vary.
