I’m a tech for a company that was part of Global Imaging. Our techs make anywhere from $22-30 per hour. I’ve seen where companies come in and change (lower) employees’ pay to the ‘going rate’. I’m curious what the range of pay is for an actual Xerox... — read more

Saint John gets 5 more years
Saint John Xerox centers getting 5 more years. Kick off confirmed our jobs were safe because of a lease renewal (Not that that REALLY means much... but). But still no pay raise. Any other call center in Saint John pays more and does better.
How does this week look on layoffs?
Do we know anything yet?
VP's dropping and not being replaced
Anybody notice all the Sales VP's leaving at XBS? Amazing that Ralph, Vega, and Mosley are still around. Mosley seems to be that of a cat with 9 lives. This will be the year: VP's, Production consolidation, and then Sales Managers. IN THAT ORDER.
A Couple of Weeks Ago...
About 2 weeks ago a few people in Lewisville here got rebadged - more to come too. We are exhausted, anxious... Do not work for HCL, you will not like it.

What will be the next company we'll attempt to acquire?
What will our brilliant leadership think of next? Buying Intel? Amazon? Google? Nothing is out of our reach, right?

Xerox HP takeover effect on employees
