Topics regarding layoffs at Xerox Corp.

Every month is a layoff month

No job is safe, but does every month have to be a layoff month at Xerox? I constantly have to worry about what will happen next month. How do they expect people to be motivated and do their best if they know that they can be shown the door at any... — read more 

Why those of us who left still visit this forum

Why do those that have left continue to come here? I can tell you why I do - I loved my my job, coworkers, all my mangers through my tenure 20+ years (yes, I was quite lucky), and my customers. It was fun working on very complicated problems and... — read more

Xerox shafting the Service Reps again

5 years ago Xerox Corporate told an entire midwest state service team that their jobs were being outsourced to a 3rd party service company, and we're given a piece of paper signing on with the new company. If they didn't they were told to flip the... — read more

Glad to be gone

What a relief to be free of this poorly managed company finally. Just sorry I stuck it out this long. I feel sorry for my old customers as I know they won’t get the service that they paid for. I am so done. Good luck with SNow and outsourcing of... — read more 

I'm surprised we are doing as well as we are

Considering everything, this ship should have sunk long ago. I'm not really sure how it's still holding on, but I'll be enjoying it and picking up my pay for the minimum amount of work for as long as I can. It's not as if Xerox deserves more from any... — read more 

This question is for sales reps

I gotta ask, what the he-l is keeping you here? Customers dropping like mad, they are tired of AR issues, HCL a disaster, customers are catching on that they are not dealing with people in the U.S., nobody is paying their invoices, constant buyout... — read more 

Victim of rapid technological change or...?

Perhaps this dying company is just a victim of rapid technological change but I often wonder if Xerox would have succeeded if it had had more competent leaders? Maybe everything would be different if the leadership knew how to carry out a successful... — read more

Are you satisfied with the skills you developed here?

I really liked someone’s motivational post that the skills someone has developed here are more valued than people think. Yes, X has mostly ruined people’s self-esteem. However, we should also be realistic. I don’t think I’ve managed to develop some... — read more 

ServiceNow - 3rd Party Software Platform?

So, Xerox is working with a 3rd party company to replace existing Service systems? Knowing how incredibly difficult it was to move internal integrated systems onto off-the-shelf platforms, I can't imagine a wholesale transition to another platform... — read more 

We have to face facts

We are the company of the past. There is no place for us in the future. The world is changing and we are quickly becoming an outdated relic. There are still some years ahead of us before time completely catches up with us, but it's inevitable. I... — read more 

XBS /GIS cores are doomed

I'm a tech at a GIS, now XBS core. From what I understand, X bought GIS years ago because we were efficient and profitable. They left us alone for several years, but the last few months have been a disaster with the rollout of their Service Now... — read more

Are Lay-offs planned in October?

Has any one else heard of lay-offs in October? I've only heard a random and elusive comment from a person I wouldn't expect to be "in the know".

Desperation at the Core

People are leaving for better jobs/more money and this is not a surprise. A newly appointed VP of Sales drafts a Sales Reps. Resignation Letter like complaining about HCL will undo what was done. Does anyone think Xerox cares? I don’t see them... — read more 

Intimidation of temp staff not to work OT at Xerox Canada?

Earlier this year, I heard that the agency staff were being scolded into working OT, and that they are given more work for the same minimum wage. Is this still occurring at the Xerox Canada branches in Toronto and Scarborough?

Rebadges happening in Canada

Can anyone confirm that a mass HCL rebadge happened recently in the Canadian offices? Also, if you are rebadged you will soon be fired and replaced by a Guatemalan.

Long suffering employees

I think there are a lot of them. Some have decided to leave Xerox after the first red flags and they have done so, while others have been seeing red flags for a while and intend to leave, but they are still there. Honestly, how long have you been... — read more 

Xerox won’t pursue non-competes

Just so everyone knows, Xerox won’t pursue breach of non-competes and non-solicitation agreements. I singlehandedly took customers totaling over 1 million in recurring revenue from them and they didn’t do anything but send a couple letters. So let... — read more

For whom does this company exist anyways?

Does X exist only for shareholders? It kind of seems that way to me. It does not exist for customers, nor is it there for its employees, but only for top dogs and shareholders. Isn't something like that unsustainable? Xerox used to be a much... — read more 

Xerox is F******, discuss.

How long until this pile of **** collapses? I worked there for nearly 30 years but the last 5 were ex------t.

Too much of a good thing
