I'll be thankful once I am laid off with a nice severance package
Other than that, not much to be thankful for these days. At least not for us still stuck at Xerox. Those who got out are probably over the moon right now.
What can we expect in the new year?
More layoffs? More massive outsourcing? Elimination of some positions or departments? I believe it’s going to be more of the same, just on a bigger scale and that 2020 could be the year in which the xerox employees are going to be hit the hardest... — read more
