I was recently laid off and just by updating my resume on LinkedIn I'm inundated with emails from companies looking to hire. Everyone I know who has looked for a job in the past year has received multiple offers in record time, less than 3 months.
Johnny's game of smoke & mirrors has failed. No company wants to buy or merge with Xerox, they know his strategy has no legs. The end game is near, private equity will pick apart this company like hyenas on a water buffalo carcass in the Serengeti.
There is great hope for all of you! Be bold & brave in your New Year's resolutions, look for a new job. The Xerox brand still has a golden glitter, even if the thieves in the C suite are robbing employees of benefits, salary & the simple decency of respect from management.
