CEO Club?
No updates, no leaderboard…nothing. Maybe they will let us know how to qualify by Thanksgiving.
I guess it’s my turn
I’m getting less and less work each week. This has never happened to me before. In fact, the opposite was true, so I assume I’m on the next list to be cut. I thought I would be scared or worried, but I’m neither. I’m excited about getting paid to... — read more
Xerox gives raises to improve employee retention
FYI to all Xeroids. A week ago Xerox gave out surprise raises to some TSR’s and Specialist to help with retention. Of course those individual were asked not to say anything…and they wonder why there’s a trust factor. The raises were between 4 and 10... — read more

Retiree Insurance Settlement
My father worked for Xerox and retired ~20 years ago. I also worked for Xerox for 33 years and got caught up in the HCL thingy a few years back. His 'Lifetime' Health insurance was cancelled a few years ago by Xerox, but now I see that Xerox lost a... — read more
Any more Agents left?
Any agencies still out there? Senior leadership posts about Dealers and Partners, but never Agents. When is that channel being merged into XBS? Happened to GC so NAOO is bound to be next.
Market adjustment raises
A big thank you to those who have voluntarily left the company. X has invested millions of dollars in raises to bring salaries up and many people are getting significant salary increases.
To the 4th graders in xerox management….just a little thank you….
Oh Thank You xerox management. You are so special to me. Thank you for the bad decisions and the gross mismanagement here. Thank you for the bonehead ideas and policies you implement. Thank you for the layoffs and staff reductions. Thank you for... — read more
Quarter end madness, then?
Typical quarter end madness here. We’re expecting the layoffs will be next week, if not this afternoon. This place is nuts!!!
Xerox is run by incompetent leaders
It's as simple as that. All the failures and all the lack of innovation and focus on what has been instead of what could be is the fault of failed leadership. It's sad to see people turn on each other in the comments here when all the anger should be... — read more
Xerox Service
Can anyone advise what the current state of xerox service is relative to competitors? I’m hearing that, “all industry players are having problems due to supply chain constraints not just xerox so stop complaining.” Any objective insight regarding... — read more

Tigers???
There’s talk of a layoff of “tigers” Why does it take a special team of sales “tigers” to sell iGens and the ridiculously named “Baltoro” inkjet press. WTF!!! Are they THAT complicated? Why can’t the sales reps sell this stuff after all these many... — read more
Who are we? Another Xerox Donation
Since the European research center was sold in 2017 and PARC was recently donated, and now the Research Centre of Canada is joining Myant, it appears that Xerox's options for innovation are dwindling. It's worth noting that Myant didn't even announce... — read more
Tell me again… why you are still at xerox???
I would have more self respect if i produced “Smokey and the Bandit Part 3”, than if i worked at xerox. (Might want to check out how popular that 3rd part of the movie was…” Why in the world would you stay working there? The world needs ditch... — read more
Any other ex-xeriods relieved when they no longer need to list the TardPowerHouse on their resume?
After 10 years you no longer have to admit you worked for trash.
Docushare was going to save us LOL
Remember when the current regime “discovered” Docushare? It wasn’t that long ago that the top guys told us and the investors about how Docushare was going to make us a “digital powerhouse” They didn’t have a clue about how dependent Xerox is/was... — read more
SMW JCS
On a call with SMW last week, more layoffs coming inside of XBS and GC, tigers are first. SMW and JCS, they need to go. Do something else, retire, join some woke commitee and push your agendas elsewhere please.
Xerox BOD has relied on an @PARC AI to make all major decisions since 2017
Here is a link to the behind the curtain tech. It explains everything... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_8_Ball

No layoffs for a while?
Feels like outside of the XBS cores, there hasn't been any significant layoffs for some time. And nobody seems to know much of anything else except for the usual complaining about Xerox. I wonder if Xerox is now too lean to need to layoff... — read more

IEP Stock Price
IEP closed below $24 today (Wed) with a one month high price of over $51 (50% + decline in one month).
Talented employees are somewhere else
The hardest thing to admit to oneself is that being stuck here is the result of not having enough talent and skills to get a better job. What is the reputation of Xerox employees on the job market? - It's not a good one. Complaining is fine, but... — read more

If Lexmark is a security vulnerability and xerox is relabeling Lexmark gear…. How is this not a concern? The report also stated that Lexmark has “connections to Chinese military, nuclear, and cyberespionage... — read more
Ricoh Toshiba Merger
"... and the king will be left standing alone, like a guy on a street corner." No solid OEM partner for xerox. Beginning of the end is accelerating. https://www.industryanalysts.com/051823_ricoh_toshiba/
