I've been here for nearly 25 years. That's how long ago I filled out my last job application and I had my last job interview. With Xerox in a state that it's in, I know it's better for me to start looking but I have no idea where to start. I'm... — read more
A little support
I left XBS a few months ago and now I earn a lot more, I have a lot more benefits and I am in a company that provides employees with much better working conditions. It may not be comforting, but there is a life after XBS. In the short term, dismissal... — read more
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
Another round Tuesday...
Not sure how deep this one will be... might just be a few, might be a lot. 😮. Sad to see our brethren get hit. From a good source...
Why wasn’t it done a long time ago?
Sales salaries are too high, underperforming reps are satisfied with this and have been coasting along. Too many sales managers with not enough employees. They need to reduce sales managers and have more report to them. There needs to be an overhaul... — read more
ServiceNow?
Does anyone know when XBS will be migrating to ServiceNow? Also, what impact will this have on the techs, parts, and supplies?
XBS Presidents

We are approaching the three year anniversary of the John V-Icahn takeover. When JV took the role of CEO, there were 38,950 Xerox employees. Three years later that number has been reduced to 27,500. This means 29.4% of our colleagues and friends... — 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
When it comes to doubts about lump sum this is perhaps the best advice: consult a financial advisor because your situation will depend on it. If your ready to retire, have low debt, paid or almost paid off a mortgage etc, than the lump sum... — read more
Iconic board members have disastrous performance
It's interesting that both the Xrx board members controlled by Carl, as well as those Carl owns sitting on other company boards have a a record of not improving shareholder value, but instead of tanking it. Carl is buying his way into the director... — read more
Keeping that laptop?
So xerox want me to return my macbook pro (4 years) with zero book value (agreed by manager). I'm told they'll invoice me more than its worth new if I keep it. My last manager before I left was actually a very decent guy. I liked him immediately. I... — read more
For all you Saint Johnners in the audience: how long do you think we have left?
For those in the know, Saint John is pretty much New Brunswick's call centre hub. And we've had a lot of call centres come and go. Iron Mountain, Atelka, S&P Data, you name it. All of them are no longer here. Even Sitel, which was pretty much THE... — read more
Pension VS Lump Sum

Techs are hardest worked employees now
For months now the technician workforce has been reduced again and again. Now we are the hardest working people left in the company forced to do the workload of 3 people. Repair budgets get smaller and smaller so bandaid fixes is all we are allowed... — read more
You’re gona get fired
Whoever is making these fluff posts you know Xerox can track who makes these posts and eventually they will find you. No telling how many people have been let go for posting on this site in a way that demeans mother Xerox.
Isn't This Site Called Xerox Layoffs to Discuss This Topic?
I'm sorry to those who feel the need to put up "fluff" posts in an attempt to hide the comments regarding Xerox layoffs. You obviously are still employed by Xerox and it is part of your job to try to improve employee morale and create blinders to... — read more
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?
More Fluff Pieces Please!
Looks like we need to push some ripe stinky posts down. Any topic will do... Feel free to regurgitate some old favorites!
Who can rescue Xerox?
Is there a partner who could rescue Xerox? A manufacturer perhaps? Even a merger/buyout? Is there any possible path???
Canon is the industry leader and it’s not close

How does Xerox end 2021?
Any guesses on big moves Xerox makes this year? Seems like it’s been relatively quiet lately.
Any more talk of a merger with HP?
This was a hot topic last summer. Haven’t heard anything about it recently?
So sad to see this company go to pot
Been here 34 years. Seen a lot come and go. Never seen such horrible management like I have the last 3 years.
Cease and Desist from Xerox

Why do people not check companies before they join them?
I really can't understand some of the newer hires. I'm yet to meet one who hadn't regretted their decision within a few months. When I hear their reasons it becomes clear they never bothered to really read up on the company before joining. I mean... — read more
Investor Day - Feb 5, 2019. Two year review
