or those of us wondering how long we could continue keeping full staffs under low sales without layoffs, it ended TODAY. Multiple departments at my core did layoffs this morning.

This post broke early factual news "layoffs/furlough", and the first hater, I mean poster was licking his chops to debunk it. Not every post on this site is fake news, maybe give it a day or 2 as be aware of what's going on, stop living with ignorance.
Keep in mind on the service side its a furlough, not a layoff. Layoff or IRIF would mean your turning in all your company assests, and your benefits would cease. They have to bring you in after the furlough if you are going to be IRIF'ed...
Furloughed in Texas
Curious if any layoffs in XDX (XIM)? Or is there not even an XDX division anymore? (Former XIM employee, 2018)
Thank you. I'll be ok. It appears I will be making more on unemployment than had I stayed! They did me a favor, lol.
@1ksx+14UaXjTS So sorry to hear you were let go! Hopefully you get severance, unemployment and some sweet Covid-19 unemployment money. Best of luck on your path forward. Thanks for sharing your story!
I was let go. Over 50. I worked at ComDoc in the warehouse. I was told this was an IRIF due to losses at Xerox during Covid-19. Business had been slow, we were working split shifts. They just called us all back saying forecast for the next two months were big. Lies, lies. They just needed to cut costs with older employees making more. Either that, because there were so few (not exactly sure total), it was personal, not sure. Will never know. Glad I'm out!
I’m in ops and I haven’t heard anything.. what cores has this affected?
Are these permanent layoffs or furloughs ?
Poster may have used the wrong terminology, but layoffs are sad. Sales and operations unfortunately were hit today across the globe due to failure to reach 1st quarter numbers and a not promising 2nd quarter forecast carried a heavy factor. Layoffs are inevitable, hopefully with the u.s. starting to reopen its businesses, sales spikes and this doesn't happen again this year. Best of luck to those that were affected.
Does this only pertain to sales people?
I have been through 3 black Mondays at xerox. What you are describing is nothing compared to the hundreds that were let go in 1999 2002 and 2007. Those were BAD DAYS. I don’t like to hear of anyone laid off but 1-2 here and there is not a blood bath.
Sounds relatively small? If driven by sales, I would expect no less than 5%. S—s for those let go, but hardly black Monday.
Three laid-off at my core so far today; don't know if it will be more :(
Not BS... More people to be told today so probably just didn't say where out of respect to the others who might be affected.
Saxon was affected too, very sad.
I just got of a call with my team. and 1 of the 98 sales rep in our core was let go... no further plans to at this time
Poster doesn't say where this is happening, who it's happening to or provide any detail. It's likely BS IMO. And who does a layoff on a Monday?
