I've heard something is happening this week, but sadly my sources of rumors have been less than reliable the last few months. So maybe nothing. Had the HP deal actually gone through I would expect something big after completion. Perhaps a... — read more
Xerox Layoffs 2020
Share any updates you may have about Xerox Layoffs 2020? Any news or rumors?
HP said nope
Unanimous by HP board. So what's next?
HCL leaked Offshoring slides vs real timeline notices
I wonder how well the leaked HCL slide timelines for the planned offshoring line up to the recent 60 day notices being sent out. This should not be a surprise for anyone as it was all out there for everyone to see in the leaked files, including the... — read more
60 Day notice on conference call today at Noon.
Lots of people on the call with Peta, got our verbal that we will have our 60 day notice in our HCL email by end of day Monday. They said we will be required to work the full 60 days to get our severance. Fun Fun.
Does xerox usually give a Christmas bonus?
Newer employee here, this will be my first Xmas with xerox, and I’m wondering if they usually give a Christmas bonus to employees, and what it “generally” is if they do. I’m assuming they give something, since every job I’ve had before has given some... — read more
Carl buys into HP
https://ca.reuters.com/article/businessNews/idCAKBN1XO0FA
The sad truth
The sad truth is that the people making the decisions don’t even know what is involved in the positions they are impacting. Because they see the jobs as low level (more than one level below c-suite), employees to fill the position are... — read more
2020 Holiday Schedule
Has anyone seen a posted Holiday Schedule for 2020? Or does that mean we are gone and everyday will be a holiday?
Sanderson Sardines
Have you seen the way they have packed those poor guys in on the ground floor at the new HQ in Uxbridge !! Its like a Chinese call centre. Anyway apparently the lease is under a year, so you know what's happening next. More news should be swift.
Be honest
Who else has a poster that says "Days since the last layoff:" hanging on the wall?
old news i know but...https://www.businessinsider.com/carl-icahns-sad-track-record-2009-10?op=1&r=US&IR=T#motorola-4

HCL staff in Canada - provided w/notice ?
Hearing rumours that most HCL staff in Canada were provided with their notice. Any experiences or anyone have verification?
Health insurance cost for 2020
Was open enrollment starting this week? How does the health insurance cost look compared to this year?
Pre-Thanksgiving parade tradition
Xerox has a reliable history of the pre-Thanksgiving Day Parade (layoffs). Now that Project OwnIt has only delivered 60% of the savings commitment for 2019 we can only assume this years event will be significant. Good luck to all. If you can exit... — read more
Xerox hoping HP will buy them.
This buying act by johnny and boys are high school boys who need attention. Playing the part of buying HP. Xerox doesn't even have money to maintain there machines in the field. There broke a– company wanting a handout.
Wagers on Naresh Shanker future in Q1?
Somebody has to take the fall when Q1 end rolls around. Will it be NS? SB? Or will a non-icahnian non-HP failboy take the hit? Inquiring minds want to know. Only a merger or sale can prevent the need to place blame once Wall Street wakes up to what... — read more
Did any Non XBS now HCL receive 60 day notice
Did any Xerox employees who were transitioned to HCL that were NOT part of XBS receive their 60 Notice from HCL?
HCL just let most of the RSS that transitioned from Xerox go
We just got off the conference call All those who transitioned from Xerox
How safe am I?
Hey guys. I started working for a xerox owned business about 4 months ago. We seem to do really well in our area. I just found this site and I keep reading about HCS and XBS layoffs. Seems as though it’s all doom and gloom here. I really like my job... — read more
Does early retirement go away if HP acquires Xerox?
Since some think that Icahn is trying to goad HP into acquiring Xerox, what would happen to the Xerox defined benefit plan if that happened? I know ERISA stipulates that benefits you've earned cannot be taken away. But would HP be required to honor... — read more
Wasn’t John V fired from HP?
John V was fired from HP and now he had Xerox pursuing buying them? What is it with former HP executives and potential retribution agendas. Remember Antonio Perez trying to turn Kodak into a printing company after he left HP?
After Fuji Separation is complete, Fuji should be free to market their products outside their region
How soon do we expect to see this, and how will they go about it do we think? I don't think Xerox can pull off a non-compete agreement, even if they continue to buy product from Fuji.
We are not buying HP
I'm pretty sure this is all a ploy to make it seem Xerox is doing better than it is. By the end of the day, we can't afford HP. So stop panicking and/or getting angry about something that is not happening. Lord knows there are plenty of real things... — read more
When is the movie coming out?
The downfall of Xerox, lies, manipulation, layoffs, empty promises, merger rumors and demise of customer relationships could create a solid storyline for a new movie. Call it, Icahn and Icant give a sh–.
HP buy bid is official
For all the naysayers the Xerox bid is real. https://www.cnbc.com/2019/11/06/xerox-planning-a-cash-and-stock-offer-for-pc-and-printer-maker-hp-wsj.html
Be positive...
Such negativity and anger in this forum. I’m here getting paid 6 figures to work from home. I am lucky and I know many of you are in the same boat or close since almost all the offices have closed. Enjoy the peace of not being in an office full of... — read more

If this acquisition goes through, how many layoffs will it take to pay for it?
Hundreds? Thousands?
Is this a joke???
So we have to keep laying people off because we don't have money and the situation is supposedly so bad that it's absolutely necessary to keep cutting more and more employees on a monthly - if not weekly - basis ... and now suddenly we have money to... — read more
