Looks like it’s hostile takeover time again.... https://www.crn.com/slide-shows/managed-services/what-you-need-to-know-about-carl-icahn-s-attempted-board-takeover-of-conduent Sound familiar folks?

I see so many people hating on Xerox, wanting to leave, as if they don't understand the situation is no better anywhere else. All companies are like this. You might get some variations - maybe slightly better pay, slightly better benefits, but when... — read more 

Icahn and his band of mercenaries failed to understand why GIS was successful. It wasn't the Sales Teams, the back office support, the core presidents, the local presence alone. It was the combination of all of these working together to understand... — read more 

This will be a waste of time, numbers will be available on the Web. Anything else he has to say will be what he wants us to believe, which at best is untrustworthy. If he does say anything credible, can always download the webcast later. The JohnV... — read more 

Looks to me that they deliberately transformed into a holding so they could sell the company, bit by bit. Is there an interested potential buyer in the world that could by the whole company. Is a scenario like this even a posibility?

Will there be layoffs when the financing business is sold? Is so, which jobs won’t transfer to the new owner?

I have a new job pretty much lined up, but I don't want to quit if there is a chance I can be laid off in the next few weeks and end up with severance. But my time to accept the offer is ticking away as well, so I'd probably have to start right after... — read more 

A mass exodus will cripple the company and Icahn/Deason will lose millions. But the masses at Xerox are spineless cowards and won’t quit. Listen, this is the best job market in recent history. There are great jobs for those who want to work. QUIT you... — read more

What if a certain employee refuses to re-badge to HCL. Is his fate at Xerox sealed? Does refusing present grounds for an immediate layoff? Is it even legal to lay someone off for refusing to work for a third-party company?

From 2016 through early 2018, Xerox brought in some serious talent to help ‘centralize’ and ‘harmonize’ it’s back-office functions, including HR. While there were some global ‘mandates’, such as the new HRIS system as the current systems were a... — read more 

John V sends out an email about Xerox giving back to our communities. Here’s a suggestion buddy, don’t send our freaking jobs to India. Leave them here! Keep these hard working men and women employed in our COMMUNITIES!!!!! What a hypocrite!

So Steve Hoover retired as CTO of Xerox. Who is the CTO now? I thought there would have been an announcement by now

Anyone notice products missing, and for those that aren't missing, no download link works. (Drivers, User Guides, firmware). It's been like this for at least 12 hours.

What is the one component impacting a Xerox sale to another company? The large amount of labor or workforce still on the books. Moving a lot of people to HCL makes it easier for Xerox to divest itself of components to other companies. No bad news for... — read more 

Our hopes were high good news was to come on Friday. The news is we have 6 months from April 1st. They will give a 60 day notice of being let go. Severance of one week for every year up to 8 weeks. No more rebadging until 2020. Good news for thise... — read more

XBS/GIS, Direct and Production (essentially all sales) commission plans changing on July 1. No details out yet. New compensation plan “leadership” in Norwalk Corporate, not in Webster or Tampa

Lets see what happens tomorrow. I’m of the opinion that over half of the negative posts on here are from ex-employees or competitors. First positive post I’ve really ever seen was this evening. Better not be fake news!

Sounds like XBS is getting some much needed positive news tonight or tomorrow. Includes good news for those employees who were rebadged. Don’t know all the details, but tenured and trusted leadership just confirmed good news is coming shortly. Light... — read more

Can other cores / xerox explain the changes (if any) that is going on with your Service call center? Have you merged with other cores? Please go easy on the rumors and just reply with facts.

Think we are working in a business that is dying and will, in some time, no longer exist in the for that we know it in. Has the time come to try to seek our fortune in other businesses before it’s too late?
