Topics regarding layoffs at Xerox Corp.

XBS Down to 4 Regions, who is out? All of them?

My "Leader" thinks we are all pals and spilled some news to a bunch of us. CBS is getting merged into Conway (about time!), ESI going to Kathy DiMaggio (was not even a good Sales VP). Does that mean Tony is out? (doubt it! Maybe the new XBS... — read more 

JCS Promoted

Good. Now lets consolidate sales channels reducing competition and trimming tons of unneeded fat. While we are at it, cut senior executive salaries, add more field technicians, bring back manufacturing and customer service to the US, and while I'm... — read more 

Remember Wim Appelo?

In my recollection he was one of the better Supply Chain VP's Xerox had.... https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/PHILIPS-NV-6289/news/Royal-Philips-Willem-Appelo-to-succeed-Sophie-Bechu-as-Philips-Chief-Operations-Officer-40671480/

June and Third Quarter

June is only a few days away which means third quarter is only a little over a month away. With MF retiring, the numbers being down because you can’t cash in on backlog orders, layoffs are coming. Buckle down and May the odds ever be in your favour. — read more 

Huge layoffs imminent

Don’t worry if you are a part of the layoffs. Novatech, UBEO, and Flex are hiring. Pay increases probable, quality of life improvement is guaranteed. At a bbq earlier this afternoon, someone heard I work at Xerox and asked me about the Xerox... — read more 

Why are you people working at that dump?

I stumbled onto this web page and noticed it was about Xerox employees posting about pending or current layoffs to warn each other or console each other? What is this ?? If this website exists that means you are working for a loser company, and you... — read more 

Mandatory overtime

I'm sick of it. My free time is priceless. This time I am willing to risk my job by refusing mandatory overtime. So far I have tried to politely raise the issue with my boss, but to no avail. Has anyone managed to refuse mandatory overtime while... — read more 

Maximizing shareholder value

It is quite clear that X does not make decisions for the benefit of its employees, but seeks to maximize the shareholder value. It may be a stupid question, but I don't see how it will achieve that in the future if employees continue to be treated... — read more 

Bye bye lump sum

Lump sum option is in the way out. The economy tanking is only going to accelerate the xerox free fall. When they don't think twice about nixing retiree benefits and slashing headcount, pension funding is not going to be a priority.

People here are exaggerating a bit

It’s true that Xerox is far from a good company, but it’s also not a bad place to start a career. I know a few young people who have made good use of their time here and to whom Xerox has served as an excellent stepping stone. Why exaggerate all... — read more 

None of us will survive if a recession hits

We are hanging by a thread as it is, a recession would be the final nail in our coffin. I've said it before and I'll repeat it: Xerox is a company that thrived in the past but is woefully outdated in today's world. If a recession hits, there'll be no... — read more 

Oh it IS coming!!!

Execs and sr. managers scurrying and planning to cover staff cuts. All cut staff to be gone by end of June - so look for mid June timing to give them 2 weeks to get people off the books.

The blind leading the blind

This place is so monumentally mismanaged. Working here is not just extremely stressful, it comes with unreasonable caseloads, lack of training, and constant poor management decisions. Sometimes it feels that the upper management embodies the "the... — read more

MF Out

Wow MF jumping ship! I wonder if this is the beginning of a mass exodus of the exec team.

Prepare - A tidal wave is coming !!!

Put on your seat belts xerox and xbs…. A tidal wave is coming. In the coming weeks/months look for some large announcements and formal restructuring. Jon V to step down , maybe take board seat. Steve B to CEO … Mary MCNuts to president ??? Go... — read more 

Complaining will not help

I understand people who need venting, but in my opinion, some are just wasting energy on complaining instead of looking for a new job. Those who complain the most send the least applications, that's my impression. I believe there are many who... — read more 

Full disclosure, partial disclosure or silence?

Harvard Business Review: “Not only is the topic sensitive from a personal and privacy perspective, but there is no specific rule or duty that requires disclosure of a CEO’s adverse health information—unless the executive is incapacitated. Not... — read more 

I got my revenge

I worked for a global core in the southeast and was a happy and hardworking employee before Xerox came in. Once Xerox destroyed our homegrown business, I left and immediately began poaching customers. Like a warrior in the face of enemy fire, I... — read more 

The main reason for leaving Xerox?

God knows that there is a lot wrong with this company, and we see people complaining about a variety of things on this board, but also in everyday office talk. So I’m just curious. If you had to point out only one main reason why you consider... — read more
