It seems that many Xerox people who quit are getting big pensions. I've been told that pensions range from $2,000-$6000 monthly or taking a lump sum is also possible. Who has more details?

Anyone know why John V lost so much weight? Just dieting or is he sick?

If someone can't find a new job now, they either don't try very hard at all or they don't have any skills at all. I don’t know anyone who was serious about looking for a job that didn't get an offer. Now is the best time to find a new job. There is... — read more 

If you got a chance to talk to JV about the way he runs the company, what would you tell him? What things and processes would you change or remove and what would you add? Big or small? I know many here think Xerox is beyond saving but I still believe... — read more 

Is the union going to strike?

I started a couple of years after C. Peter McColough, who was after Joe Wilson who created a world class culture. I met David Kearns once at a company picnic, nice man, but he really led through the first decline. Allaire and his henchmen were... — read more 

Given all the bad moves of our leadership, it really surprises me that X is not in even worse shape than it is. Sheer luck. What would you say how close is X is to the ultimate failure and rock bottom?

We had someone who was here for 4 years. First raise. For one day on this check.. I believe they are going to purchase some Kraft mac and cheese. Nevermind, not enough. Good luck to all of you.

We obviously were shipping items, supporting Russian Xerox accounts with Russian employees. We have stopped shipping things to them and essentially doing business there. How much will that cost, between no revenue coming in from an entire country... — read more

In fact, I don't worry about Xerox anymore, nor what will happen to the company in the future because I'm leaving soon, but I can't help but notice that the leadership is actually just managing the decline. They seems to have no intention to get... — read more 

Hearing rumors in my Core about something happening with both. Maybe merging?

Sippy cups for everyone!

HP is buying Poly for 3 billion. Xerox’s market cap is around 3 billion. Hmmm. Looks like HP so very much not interested in xerox. Cash better spent elsewhere. https://www.computerworld.com/article/3654838/hp-to-acquire-poly-for-3-3b.amp.html — read more 

What do you think? Is the final outsourcing push upon us?

Management has managed to turn employees who love their job into employees who work on autopilot. Many who have really done their job with a lot of passion have either left or been laid off. Yesterday I had a conversation with my boss who wanted... — read more

I'm getting so frustrated and tired of being rewarded for hard work - and by that I mean doing several jobs at once - with empty words. I don't care that I'm "the best you got" and I don't give a damn you wish you had more employees like me. Of... — read more 

The rhetoric about the constant need to cut costs and reduce the workforce sickens me at this point. The leadership creates lousy business results with their faulty decisions and the end result is the need to cut costs and reduce the number of... — read more

Xerox promised merit raises, they were to be communicated in March, on first pay in April. Nobody seems to know anything about it. Shocking really and growing old. So tired of empty promises.

I thought I’d be laid off sooner than find a new job, but it turned out that getting a better offer was easier than ever. I was surprised at how quickly I got the interview call. Now I just have to endure a few more days here. Is there anyone who's... — read more
