WOW, so all the people in the "know" grab the lump sum pension and run for the hills. No notice, no warning, no heads up for the rest of us. Is that even legal. Even if it is, that is morally bankrupt. Transparent my a$$!
SMW is gone
Are we running out of signs that it's over for Xerox?
So only XBS was affected by layoffs?
i only see XBS regions affected.
What about Health, Safety, and Environmental/Remediation?
What has become of us? Is this the end? Once, our HSE group stood strong, but now it's as if it's vanished into thin air. In the past, we boasted robust programs and active engagement, but now there's nothing but silence. Who will remain to face the... — read more
This has been tough
And to think is just the beginning. Stay strong, guys. Maybe it really is best for all of us to move on to better workplaces.
when to file for unemployment
It appears you may want to wait for 30 days to file for in New York. Does anyone know if that is true and is 30 days from the layoff date or 15 days after that which is last day you are paid? New York web page: If I receive dismissal or severance... — read more

Xerox Su-ks
I have never worked for a more useless and disorganized company in my life than that of Xerox. I am so happy I jumped off this sinking ship late last year.

Who cares, go sell something!

What’s the scope so far? I see it's happening across the board. Any safe havens?
After 27 years I was IRIF'd from Xerox Today
For many years now I have watched Xerox reduce the workforce and had been fortunate that I made it through those until today. The problem still remains at Xerox no matter how many individuals they IRIF. Xerox's ideology and processes are still in the... — read more
Xerox = Dirtball Inc
After 28 years I got RIFed today. My email access cut off immediately. Pretty low brow treatment. Bad news YOU are next. Sad place to have worked.

Today IS the day
I have a "catch up" meeting with my boss at 9AM. Today is my day. Also the FAQ. Good bye sorry to see it end this way.
Workforce update documents uploaded
Can’t see the contents of it but it looks like there is a new folder created just now
I am ashamed
Whenever I am in the company of other people, I feel ashamed to admit I work at Xerox. Working in a company that has been going downhill fast, and has remained associated with outdated tech and approach, somehow makes you the same in the eyes of... — read more
NDAs. Who hasn’t been told
Have you been NDA’d yet ? Seems everyone has. Secret secret are no fun - 2/29 and 3/1 will be the days. Good luck everyone. Sorry to those that have to be the “messenger “ - what was once a great company , a great career , you’re now tasked with... — read more

American Samurai commits Seppuku
Death by 100 billion printing paper cuts. Wife an I each retired after 32 years. 3 and 7 years ago. Both at 57. Grabbed our 1.9 mil RIGP (both when interest rates were near zero) between us and ran for the exits. I got the 1 week per year salary... — read more
Xerox is a shell of its former self
I'm a current employee with 30 years at the company, not a competitor. I work with many different segments of the company (sales, support, billing, service) and I'm just giving my opinion based on what I see on a daily basis. There hasn't been... — read more
Reorg effects
You think, guys, we can bounce back with all the upcoming changes? It would be good if that’s the case, at least for those who will get to keep the job.
VRIF Status
Have people who requested the VRIF been told their last day? Are some VRIF people already gone? Any idea how many people took the VRIF offer?
What's next?
This is about much more than headcount reduction. Get ready to be shocked when you see the changes to our product line up, our expanded partner for equipment manufacturing, and organization to support specific Go-to-Market opportunities by geography... — read more
Please don’t tell me layoffs will last for weeks
“The reductions will begin taking effect within the next several weeks.”
Organizational announcement guidelines posted on employee website
It’s coming yall
Calling Xerox an American Company is laughable.
Since almost every moderately skilled job has been off shored the last few years, it's becoming very clear to the Xerox's bread and butter customers. Our competitors are swooping in like buzzards. Amazing amount of mismanagement from upper... — read more
