Interesting to know if she resigned or has been "invited" to leave. Today is her last day @ Xerox!
Forever on backorder
My manager talks like our backlog is going to save us. It reminds me of the scene in D-mb n D-mber with the briefcase full of IOU's. I wonder if I'll ever see my deals turnover. Why work?
And that's a wrap
We're setting off fireworks tonight team! Another quarter in the books; Fortunes were made, hearts were broken, souls sold for pennies on the dollar, techs stretched like taffy, multi tasking was mandatory, noses were browned, ones were owed, and... — read more
Parc Layoffs tomorrow
Looks like there will be some layoffs at PARC tomorrow
Went to the local office supply place to make copies
Is Webster responsible for the walk-up machines?! Outsourced to India much? Either case your resume goes straight to the can.
But we still have brown-nosers
The writing is painted in big bold neon colors on the wall and yet we still have a couple people in our core who still refuse to abandon their bootlicker ways. There are still people here who will trade whatever dignity they still have for a "you... — read more
Layoffs coming…again
Back office and non-XBS sales teams layoffs planned for Thursday Oct 20th. I heard the code name was “Sydney”. How big is the xerox contingent in Australia?
Q4 and 2023 Projections
PARC sold to HP Care AR sold to Verizon Fittle sold to Cisco Capital Xerox brand sold to Ricoh Buildings sold to whatever is left of WeWork
September Actions Incoming…
Just remember, you will be ok. This is the definition of a blessing in disguise.
That time again
Team, Home from vacation, touched down around 21:30 and waiting on my bags but . Still some spare change/ days left of action in the month and I'm ready to roll. Best of luck, now let's get some docs signed! *I had this tune in my head throughout... — read more
I think I'll be laid off soon
Or fired. Up until a month ago, I was constantly busy. Now it feels like there’s less and less to do daily. Even when I'm actively looking for things to do, I'm met with a wall. There's nothing else I can think of as a reason for this change other... — read more
Do you plan to be at Xerox in the next two years?
This is not a question for those who are already looking for something new. I'm wondering how many people who are not planning to leave just yet see themselves still being here two years from now. I'm just hoping to see how many people see Xerox as... — read more
Winter is coming!
This is bad news for Xerox and whomever stays. Every single person I’ve spoken to in our organization is looking for a new job. It’s not 3, or 5 or even 10. It’s every single person in operations, service and sales. My best prediction is our region... — read more
All specialists are losing their cars
With Xerox's zeal to cut costs and save money, all specialists were notified today that that they will all need to use personal vehicles and turn in their company cars by November 1st. We have been doing so much cost cutting for the last 10 years... — read more
Contract hiring Frozen?
Has anyone heard whether contract hiring is frozen? We haven't been able to get a req approved for months. They didn't reject it either - it's just sitting there in the system. Also it appears that new POs are on hold. Seems like they're... — read more

Q3 Layoffs
Does anybody know or think this place will do layoffs with just 2 weeks left? Some say it will get good again and I want to believe them because my dog and I need the income but I don't know. Not looking good. Tia
Falling like rain
I saw a lot of people's emails coming back undeliverable this week. That's how I find out someone has been cut. When I brought this up on a call with my manager he downplays it like usual and then arranges meetings to plan how to spread the... — read more
This site has been eerily accurate lately
Wow, saw delivery drivers and their "manager" training to videos. This gonna be lit.
Not sorry for the good news!
Haters are gonna hate, but my team's got what it takes! We'll do the jobs of 10 people, we don't have anything to lose and somebody has to get this money. Channel lines for equipment are looking like rivers of milk and honey and the month is... — read more
Like a phoenix (it can happen again)
I was taking my morning bath and remembered how a lot of techs were IRF when the pandemic was in full swing and how a lot them were eventually called back. I think once the backlog starts unclogging a lot of the techs who were IRF this round will get... — read more
From one boat to a smaller boat and a few sea unworthy canoes
When you have one boat/one team, but you need to cut your boat into pieces, because no one wants to buy your bloated boat, you end up w holes in the hull, and a bunch of rafts/canoes built from scraps that will start to sink very quickly (3D etc.)... — read more
Rally the troops
Team, We are one week away from the first official work day of September; the last month of the quarter. My team and I are going to be on vacation until further notice so please command all emails to this post. Best
Any Rumors of More Layoffs?
Has anyone heard any rumors about more upcoming layoffs? Which departments, etc.
Have you seen our staff lately?
I seriously have to laugh at the people suggesting salespeople and drivers should be installing maintaining equipment. Sorry to generalize, have you recently seen our remaining operations and sales staff?
Done with layoffs for 2022?
Just trying to plan the balance of the year - think we are safe and layoffs are over until next year? I need this job. Pay is okay and it is not a bad place to work. But, I always feel like we are about six months from disaster. Also why don't we... — read more
Just laid off with no notice
My TSM called me in, he seemed like he just got the news himself the previous day. We've lost a 4 TSR's in the past 4 months, and we have a massive call volume. Parts have been delayed the entire time.
Sept 1 Saxon Miami Town Hall meeting with CEO Steve
Xerox newly appointed CEO Steve will be visiting Saxon Thursday September 1st to host a townhall meeting. One would think he could use his time better, this seems like another "hoorah" everyone is safe and then more layoffs. Would someone please... — read more
more layoffs on the 30th
more irif's, don't know how many but in service, looks to be decent size
I got a 5% raise this year....... What did you get?
In fact everybody in my company got a 5% raise. It was to compensate for the inflation. 2 years ago I got laid off from Xerox. A couple of months later I got a new job doing virtually the same back office job as I did in Xerox. The first year I made... — read more
Almost like my team is against me
If you're in xbs sales do you ever feel like your manager, hcl, administrative, and even the warehouse help is working against you? This business is tough enough without me having to fill out my own paperwork, make sure everything is spec, and even... — read more
If you are eligible for RIGP Lump Sum, you better grab it now!
Segment rates are going up, life expectancy has went down, and future funding is questionable. It's time to cut your losses, take the money and RUN! If you don't believe it, consult a proven financial planner.

how many today? 3 here from my group in Webster.
Bankruptcy may be just around the corner. That would explain why a new director has been appointed.
Bankruptcy happens not because you are making losses; it happens because you run out of cash. No cash means you cannot pay providers, banks and, eventually, you cannot pay shareholders nor employees. Long story short: if things keep going the way... — read more
You expect a lot from this company
It's interesting how many people still blame Xerox for everything while at the same time doing nothing to take control of their lives and their careers. Honestly, what do you expect from this company? To change something for the better? No, that... — read more
Too many problems to fix
Xerox has way too many problems to be able to fix them any time soon. There's no transparency, we have a complete lack of vision and clear direction for the future, and we're top-heavy to the point that you could cut two-thirds of them and we... — read more
