Feeling miserable

It’s my fault that I didn’t go from here when I had a better chance of finding a new opportunity. Now it’s a lot harder because there aren’t a lot of companies that are thrilled with Xerox’s longtime employees. That is my opinion. The general feeling... — read more

Don't expect to stay here long

New hires shouldn't get too comfortable. Lately, most new employees come with an expiration date. Xerox hires a bunch of people to inflate the numbers and then has another round of layoffs to appease the shareholders. Rinse and repeat. New employees... — read more

Remembering...

It's always easy to judge afterwards, however, the deal proposed by Jacobson to merge Fujifilm and Xerox in 2018, was certainly the most clever idea for this company and his future. We all know what happened, with Icahn's putsch, well supported by... — read more

Black sales manager claims discrimination from X

Wondering peoples thoughts on the news article regarding the black sales manager in St John, Canada claiming he was paid less by Xerox because he was black. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswick/saint-john-nb-xerox-fair-pay-1.6221118

Q3 Earnings Summary Employment: 23,600

The employment numbers are of interest. In spite of job postings, implying hiring, there is still a net loss each quarter of employees. At the end of Q121 the number was 24,600. Lots of reasons, I'm sure, including requiring people to show up at... — read more

They would find another way

This vax mandate thing is just one big trick for this company to cut people. If this hadn’t happened, I’m afraid Xerox would have found some other way to get rid of people who are paid a little more for their experience and their knowledge. I just... — read more

How much is the Xerox experience worth?

I am a little envious of all those who leave Xerox. I've been trying to find a job for months. I have a lot of experience here but it seems to me the longer you stay here the harder it is to find a new job. I wonder if the experience in this company... — read more

I don't believe X will go unscathed

There are many of us who have their reasons for not being able to receive a jab, and who at the same time cannot allow themselves to lose their jobs. No matter what you think about vaccination, I would not debate it at all, the truth is that many... — read more 

Have you seen all the open positions at xerox?

Hmmmmmmm…I wonder why? I’m sure they will find some 30 day wonders that will eventually realize that this industry will soak the life out of you and then some. I truly hope they read and understand this forum as a warning to stay away from this... — read more 

It's better elsewhere

You need to leave Xerox and you need to leave it now. After I was laid off, I managed to find a job within two months that came with a 30 percent pay increase. When I think back, I can't believe the abuse I was willing to take because I was too... — read more

Questionable strategy

I often wonder if someone wanting to deliberately accelerate the downfall of this company would actually have a better strategy than those currently running Xerox? Maybe I don’t understand, maybe most of us don’t understand those business... — read more

Stand your ground and quit

If any of you feel that the company is asking for something you're not willing to do, quit. You'll stand by your convictions and help other people by reducing the need for layoffs in a single move. I don't see a problem here, really. I know it is not... — read more

As much as I think we are understaffed

_those at the top seem to think we are overstaffed. I hope that won't be the case, but everything that's happening tells me that Xerox will be a much smaller company next year. I'd rather someone tell me I'm paranoid than that I'm right.

Former Essential Worker Hero

Last year I was an essential worker. A hero for going to work. I repaired your device inside of your school, your jail house, your hospital, your elderly care place. You unzipped the Covid red protective sheet in your hallways and had me walk through... — read more 

It's bad everywhere

I'm not defending Xerox, but our industry is falling apart. All of our competitors are in as much trouble as we are. It's a simple case of the world changing with the times and the ones who can't adapt getting discarded along the way. No management... — read more 

I would love to be the target of layoff

Of course, I’m sorry for those who still want to stay here for a while longer, but I inquire about layoffs because I’d love to be cut. Has anyone heard anything new about layoffs?

I don’t try to have great performance anymore

Some people who do almost nothing are overpaid, and those who have sacrificed work-life balance are underpaid. There is no middle ground. I don't know anyone who gets fair pay at X. Despite my performance, I gave up all hope when it comes to raise... — read more 

Referral Bonus

Refer three or more people and get the "chance" to be entered in a raffle to win $1000! What a joke. God save us.

Remember…Even the Lone Ranger needed Tonto …

Just a thought. For this company to think everything can be done effectively and long term on any box the techs work on, is at best foolish. Not only does the support absolutely suck, but talk about a really bad judgement call. I cannot fathom still... — read more

401K Match

When is Xerox going to bring back the 401K match ?

So … How is SNow working out for everyone?

Wondering how SNow is working out for the new guys that have 30 days experience. I’m curious if it has gotten better or people are just lowering their expectations. Nothing like an A4 that no one can fix. Garbage in Garbage out

It's frustrating

Have you tried talking with people who've retired from Xerox years ago? I did, and it's one of the most frustrating experiences I've had in a long while. They're so unwilling to accept that the company they knew has changed as much as it did. For... — read more

Only when you come to a new company..

only then does it become clear to you how much your skills have atrophied while at Xerox and how much you made a mistake by not leaving here much earlier. I tried as hard as I could to maintain my skills sharp while I was at X, but it still... — read more

Increase in pay after leaving

Hearing about people getting higher pay after leaving X equals to hearing about how much we are underpaid here. I wonder how much higher pay you have now in other companies after you've left here and along with that how much more (or less) do you... — read more 

I wouldn't stay at any cost

A friend's leaving Xerox for a new job with a raise but he's hoping that he's going to get a matching offer to stay. I can't understand why he would want to stay for the life of me. He says he likes his job, has a great manager, and would rather be... — read more
