“The brand”
Xerox CEO and execs frequently talk about the value of the brand. People 45 and under dont even know what Xerox was, much less what it is. There is very little value in the brand. No brand. No products. No services. Its over. Layoffs continue. — read more

Layoff 2/29/2024

What was once Xerox ....
“Fujifilm would hold a majority stake in the venture.“ Bye Bye KM https://www.printweek.com/content/news/fujifilm-and-konica-minolta-announce-plans-for-jv
Just a stinking pile
More layoffs to come but not many more. One or two rounds before its aquired (or bankruptcy) and mostly shut down. No product path. Weak customer support. The best people have left with only a few exceptions.

I just received a huge Xerox profit sharing check today !
Ya right, April fools. The only thing that happened so far, we were told to do more with less. We already give ten hours a day for an eight hour a day paycheck. It's only Monday morning and I need a new bottle of Pepto Bismol already.
Hello Uber!
No, I don't mean to suggest techs will be looking for jobs at Uber. They won't have to, because that is the apparent vision of Xerox Corporate now, to in fact "Uberize" service. This means that a computerized system will take over much of the... — read more

Which CEO did the most damage to the sinking ship?
I have to go with Ursula Burns. Promoted up the ladder for all the wrong reasons.
We make work, work - ha ha ha ha
This has to be one of the d-mbest marketing moves ever. I've heard "if you love what you do it's not work", but this? I guess Xerox is just trying to live up to their slogan - deep cuts but none of the work goes away so anyone left gets more to do... — read more
