Thread regarding Xerox Corp. layoffs

It's getting lonely up there...

Sometimes, the truth is stranger than fiction.

How, such a large group of inept middle and upper management can congregate in one place and conspire to hollow out the will to live of so many valuable employees across the globe, is a miracle to behold.

One bad decision follows another, and another and another. Cutting costs of everything to the point where services cannot be effectively provided to customers, while barking on about what a powerhouse they are and how it's all going to change with the reinvention. Which actually means outsourcing everything to the cheapest bidder and it now not working correctly.

Diversity and inclusion are pushed and sold to employees every day, yet all that is encountered is segregation, exclusion and discrimination unless you are in the club. Speak up for what's right and the ranks are closed and the fairy tales rehearsed with the useless, non-existing support network for employees, who are in management's back pocket.

CEO club is over, and so is your honeymoon.

SB and JV brought in by one of the best corporate raiders Carl Ichan. Carl got a bit of what he wanted, but Covid threw him a curveball and stopped the HP merger. Current leaders do not build organizations they only know breaking them apart.

What is happening now has always been the plan. People are just now slowly realizing it. Well, those that didn't see it all along.

While raises stopped, 401k stopped, cheap anniversary pins stopped, etc, things that possibly show actual appreciation, what popped up in its place is the free placating. The diversity initiatives you speak of, the 'parents club', all that fat garbage that costs nothing but makes everyone feel warm and fuzzy on the inside as if you were getting something out of the company that has let go of your coworkers so that you get to do more work for less reward.
Execs jumping ship left and right and not being replaced, your coworkers being let go for "performance", customers dropping like flies, the list goes on.
It hurts, I know. It's just the plan all along.
