According to Xerox they are making decisions to "....return the company to growth." Unethical, amoral group of sc_mbags!!!! Here is a link to the news story... — read more
Layoffs are far from our only issue
We have a big number of employees who have been here very long and have completely lost their drive. We have an utterly dysfunctional relationship between management and employees. Products are outdated. If there is a path to future revenue growth, I... — read more
Nothing good can happen without it being ruined
I've been trying for years to improve things in my department and streamline some processes that are all over the place to no avail because my manager is allergic to change. Finally, with my manager out with COVID, I managed to get several things... — read more

Managing the decline
When I see all these complaints about Xerox, only one thing is not clear to me. How can people not see that they are actually managing the decline, that nothing better can be expected, and that the only question is how much is left until we finally... — read more
Nearly two weeks into 2022 and still no layoffs
Did they go soft on us in the new year?
I still can't get used to it
I've been gone from Xerox for nearly five months and I still have trouble getting used to the fact that my new boss is not a bully and doesn’t want to see me fail. The first time I received positive recognition from him, I nearly cried. That's how... — read more
Salary Grades
Does anyone know the salary grades for D0 employees? My current role is posted as a D04 on the internal careers site but i am a D03. Any advice?
What would save this company?
Some say merger might save Xerox. I don't really think so. I don’t believe there’s anything that could save this company, but I may be thinking too negatively. Anyways, I don't intend to be here much longer but I wonder what you think a merger... — read more
Xerox is...
Toxic corporate torture chamber. Dumpster fire. Flaming pile of dog sh-t. Take whatever dignity you have left and get out now.
Excessive expectations
Every day I wonder if our management's expectations from employees are a little too high? It doesn't work that way. It is not possible to make so many demands on employees and give them peanuts in return. Only those who for some reason cannot go... — read more
Dealers are pulling Xerox and pushing HP
I’m a former Xerox tech that now works for dealer for less money. As the lease expires on a Xerox box we are replacing them with HP. We converted all the Xerox machines from metered to sold. We no longer send a $30,000 check to xerox each month. I... — read more
XBS ?
What's going on at the cores? Anybody left there? It was getting as bad as mother xerox when I left...
Xerox is an unorganized company as a whole
Even if we were not part of a dying industry - and let's face it, we are - a company that is run like this would have no chance of surviving. With so many useless management levels, so many processes that should have been streamlined years ago, and... — read more
Pension lump sum
A reply to one of the posts below said as of February no one will be able to take a lump sum on their pension. Anyone have facts on that and a reliable source?
Maybe it could have been different
We need to be realistic, there has been a paradigm shift and for a company like Xerox it has not been easy to adapt to new circumstances, new needs. I’ve been in this company for a long time, I’ve been here even when it was incomparably better to... — read more
Why haven't there been any layoffs for a while?
The answer is very simple: it doesn't go in Xerox's favor to be paying for packages, and they have already created such a bad work environment that even those who were most loyal and optimistic are leaving in the masses. My advice is that no one... — read more
I would be ashamed...
Let’s face it, I’m still here because I'm counting days until retirement. If it weren't so, I would be urgently looking for a way to exit. Very often I am ashamed to say that I work in this company, while in fact the management is the one to be... — read more
Christmas get together
Amazing despite the global pandemic Saxon decided to go with an outdoor “ get together “ outdoors. I scratch my head wondering why does these people need to have a get together with the “4“people left in the office. Instead of giving their leftovers... — read more
Infuriating - COBRA Health Coverage Reveals True Abuse of Employees
I elected to keep my health care coverage by subscribing to COBRA after I was laid off. I was paying $200 per pay period (twice a month). Under COBRA I pay both the employee & employer contribution. I was expecting a massive monthly premium. It turns... — read more
Is there any legal recourse?
If somebody is laid off right before the end of the year and loses out on their significant bonus, is there any legal recourse for them? I just read posts where this happened to people and I can't believe Xerox got away with it. Shouldn't they be... — read more
Five years from now
The other day a colleague asked me where I see Xerox in five years. What would you answer? I really don't know, I'm not optimistic even about the multiyear cloud deal with Oracle. What's important to me is that I don't see myself here for more than... — read more
Come on in, the water's fine!
Just a few weeks in and life after Xerox is GREAT !! Make's me wish I would've left 10 years ago... Oh well, no time like the present :) GET OUT NOW! You won't regret it !!
Rethinking our pricing strategy
I recently talked about this with some friends. They actually like some products but will not buy them because of the price. Maybe that's a stupid question, but I'm wondering if you think X products should be cheaper and would reducing the price of... — read more
I'm confused
Since when has it become an issue to stay in the same company for a long time? I was told last week that having only Xerox on my resume for the past 20 years is not ideal. How is hopping companies every few years now the desirable option? Have things... — read more
Happy New Year
Happy New Year Xerox employees. As a way to thank you for the next year of work that you will put forth for us we will not raise your health care. In this very gracious step we have found a way to just raise your deductible from 7,000 to 9,000 so... — read more
Christmas gift
Is there a better Christmas gift than getting a new offer and finally leaving this ridiculous place? X-X Marry Christmas everyone!
Remember when we used to look forward to Christmas?
Now all I can think about are the layoffs that are guaranteed to happen as soon as the latest quarter/annual results are out.
They don't have anyone to cut anymore
This is a declining industry in general, but I think better leadership could've achieved much more despite the decline. They relied mostly on cuts. My team is now desperately missing more people because those of us who are still here are... — read more
How much was the experience gained here worth to you?
I somehow managed to get an offer in a much better company. However, I have to admit that I am a little scared of the new beginning because I know that people there have more skills and experience than me. Honestly... — read more

One week in a year we're safe
How sad is it to have a single week during the entire year where we can consider ourselves safe? As far as I know, Christmas week is the only time when there were never layoffs at Xerox. This includes the small surgical cuts of one or two persons... — read more
Job Market is Smoking Hot
I was recently laid off and just by updating my resume on LinkedIn I'm inundated with emails from companies looking to hire. Everyone I know who has looked for a job in the past year has received multiple offers in record time, less than 3 months... — read more
