Employees are treated as liabilities

Applications developer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Much of the culture of CSC depends on the specific contract you are employed under. I really enjoy the people I work with and the practices of the subset of the company I am with. My position is an excellent fit for my skills and the people I work with appreciate what I do.

Cons

The CSC corporate office has been handing down new decisions every few months since Lawrie's arrival that are designed solely to please shareholders, boost the stock price, and ensure Lawrie's stock option bonuses are granted. The most recent vacation policy change that mandates taking a week of vacation on CSC-designated days and expires vacation not taken in the year it was earned is simply an accounting trick to remove the 'vacation liability' before CSC's fiscal year-end reporting.
