As many functions will be transitioned to younger and less paid workers in Raleigh/Cary, be ready for the “here is some money to stay” ruse. That will indicate you are soon to be let go, after training your younger and/or less paid replacement. Best... — read more
Why stay?
For the past several months, our numbers at our core has decreased to a point where we are barely able to get by. Some people, like myself, have taken over related functions from other cores we have merged with. So one person may be doing the job of... — read more
How soon can we expect mass layoffs?
I hate to say it, I think it could get ugly in the last month or two of the year.
I understand that the industry is down, but how are the competitors surviving?
I know none of the companies in this business are in a good place right now, but none of them sank as low as xerox either. Is it about time to stop blaming the slow market for our lack of ability to innovate and adapt to the trends?
Long-term career at Xerox
Is there anybody left who still believes that's a possibility? From what I can see, most people are here short-term, both new hires and older employees. Seems to me like more and more people are starting to accept the fact that Xerox is a sinking... — read more

For some reason I feel that the last three months of 2019 are going to be the worst. Thoughts?
What cores are in most danger of layoffs happening?
Is there any logic to where layoffs might strike next? What parts of the company have to fear more, although I know none of us can say that they’re safe?
There is no place for us in the future
We are an outdated company with outdated products and outdated way of thinking that focuses on layoffs to improve the bottom line instead of innovating and trying to figure out how to evolve with the times. How anybody can think that Xerox has a... — read more
Look for a new job or wait it out until my pension?

Webster verses Raleigh
I wonder how soon the Webster, NY Xerox campus will be sold, in all or in pieces, or abandoned. It seems a lot of workers there do not even work for Xerox, but for HCL or some other company they outsourced jobs to (cleaning, maintenance... — read more

No point in trying to do a good job
