XBS SouthEast

So how’s it going with the 3 companies at XBS Southeast? I was a tech at the largest of the 3, and from what I’ve heard it’s not gotten any better since I left. I’d be curious if sales was anywhere close to what they were at prior to 2018. — read more

Far from it that layoff was the worst experience?

I wouldn't like to exaggerate, there were also some very good things, but now that I think about it, most of the time I despised working here. It’s interesting how much people can suffer before deciding that it’s completely unnecessary and that it’s... — read more 

Consulting financial advisor

Who buys Xerox?

We all know where this is heading..... at some point, Xerox will be broken up and sold. XBS will be sold at a premium while Xerox is sold for pennies on the dollar. Question is, who buys what?
