Alright, Xerox family, buckle up! Remember that bold Reinvention roadmap promising to save us all? Well, it’s still coming to the rescue… just not today. Or tomorrow. Turns out, our cost-saving hero is taking the scenic route, ETA: sometime in... — read more
Project Reinvention is not working……
SteveB says “ Q3 results demonstrate no single quarter or performance metric in isolation defines our Reinvention” - surely Q3 results show your leadership is not working and Project Reinvention is fatally flawed. You even want to train an... — read more
Q3 2024 Town Hall meeting
My Q3 2024 Team Xerox Town Hall meeting invite went to my Junk Email in Outlook. I find that ironic. If Outlook recognizes a Corporate email as junk, maybe the correct action to take is to report the email as junk back to Corporate? Positive... — read more
Reinvention training
Did anyone understand the training? It was supposed to " enlighten " us to what upper management's plan is going forward. It was more confusing and I still don't know what they want to accomplish. All of the production analysts and their managers... — read more
Welcome to Xerox! Has Any Xerox Acquisition Ever Been Successful?
I'm sure it works out for the one who gets the check but employees of the acquired company? 'Good News, you now work for xerox!'Vader Systems? GIS? ____? Any buyout worked out well for employees of a buy out? No '100 years nonsense... please be... — read more

Vacation Policy Announced 7/1/24
Does anyone know if the revised vacation policy on accrual went into effect 1/1/24 or 7/1/24? New policy was announced late June / early July 20204.
Earnings Call Approaches
I'm sure they will be as egotistical as ever as they get to play T Ball with the analysts what a joke.....
Looks Like We Are Shopping For A Buyer Again
I'm uncertain how much longer we can keep spending without shutting down operations. My boss mentioned we're looking for a buyer or someone interested in purchasing some of our remaining patents. Does anyone know of potential buyers? What are you... — read more
Customer last. Employee last. Management first.
The Xerox name is long dead. As are the companies morals, support for the customer and it's employees. below is a key to understanding Xerox. Reinvention = Mass Redundancy Ethical = Ignoring employees needs with the help of HR. Transformation =... — read more
Whatever happened to Xerox Capital Services?
Whatever happened to Xerox Capital Services? I worked there a long time ago when they were partnered with GE and bringing in Six Sigma. But it looks like they have dropped off off of the map.
Being a toxic person seems to be a requirement to get hired at Xerox
I've never met so many toxic people in one place as I have here.
Health care open enrollment
Something strange is going on. Normally by this time every year we are inundated with information about health coverage open enrollment for the coming year. So far nada, not even a whisper.
Xerox is in a maintenance mode
For as long as bonuses and shamefully high salaries for the top are secured, nothing else matters. They have no incentive whatsoever to make the company better and prosperous in the long-term. Once the cash-cow is dead, they’ll just move on to... — read more
Synergy IT
What do we know about synergy IT solutions doing field service technician work under the Xerox name with our core customers at the same time as Xerox badged technicians? Not talking Alaska or Montana either, other states.
Longshoreman strike
We are mostly, clearly, not union. How can we do the same thing? Bring this to a halt to show them it isn't working.
Caretaker Management
Xerox Continues to Fall Short of Wall Street Expectations Xerox is suffering from “caretaker management,” which occurs when an older (and often successful) company is run by a management team that is content with the status quo and is risk averse... — read more

We Deserve Better
For the last two years, I’ve been dealing with relentless stress due to this company's frequent layoffs and outsourcing. The most frustrating part? HR isn’t even part of the company anymore—it’s handled by a third party that seems just as... — read more
Those who can’t do, teach
This accurately describes XBS Southeast right now. Help us before it is too late.
Hiring?
Anyone think its unethical to hire someone from the outside, representing great opportunities, while knowing what is coming, and during continuous layoffs? I see 2 openings I am familiar with being shared on LI, by managers, not just the XRX HR post... — read more

ALL ABOARD THE HCL EXPRESSWAY!!
HCL or BUST! no word on training bonus like they did with operations before covid. COS was great. but it's been a shell of itself for years now. didn't expect they'd pull this though.
Rebadged
More people getting rebadged supposedly is to grow. They are sugar coating it. We all know what rebadging means! Good luck people

Why are you staying in Xerox?
This is an honest question. I’ve been here for over ten years, and I became both complacent and stuck. Now I’m afraid that I’m not marketable at all. I have two kids, elderly parents who I partially support, and debt I have to service. I’m scared to... — read more

How are you faring with job search?
I’ve been trying for six months, no luck. I’m beginning to be afraid I’ll never be able to leave this place, or that I’ll be jobless if they let me go. I’m running out of ideas.
Only the bottom will survive
Per usual, good news for a few, but this time it isn’t what you might expect. As X pivots itself into being more dealer oriented, only the operation's personnel will remain to the physical work. Former cores will called “plugs.”
KEEP APPLYING ELSEWHERE!
do your work, but keep applying. don't give up. don't let a good day, or a "shout out" e-mail or "Rockstar" comment let you get lazy with putting effort into finding your next job. Xerox is a great place to work...while looking for work. You can't... — read more
