I was laid off, landed a new job, and found out I was being underpaid by Xerox - and not by a little! For me, getting laid off really did turn out to be a blessing in disguise - as cliche as that might found. If this doesn't make you want to get out... — read more
Memo about former employees?
Just saw a tweet mentioning Xerox that read: “why did you push a memo stating no one who formerly worked at xerox is rehireable?” Anyone know what this is about?

Do you need proof that cost cutting and outsourcing to India does not work?
Just check Conduent stock price. It was $23 at the time of the separation and is now $5.60, down 35% today only. Johnny Vas---ne and Steve B's playbook is the same one that Conduent has implemented in the past 2 years. They better find an imbecile... — read more

Bldg 205 in Webster - No More HCL?
I happened to drive past the Webster campus today and noticed the HCL sign had been removed from Bldg 205. Does that mean they've moved to a different location? No longer renting from Xerox?

Xerox is dead. Make your future that of your own, not that of a dying company
No reason to explain further than this topic’s title. If you need to work, find a better “home”. If you can retire or walk away, do what’s best for you and your family. This is a sad end to a company that once held significant brand loyalty with a... — read more
Stock Price LOL
Stock price isn’t exactly tearing it up lately. I wonder if little Johnny and Carl are getting worried about their grand scheme of falsely increasing the bottom line through outsourcing, delayed vendor payments, and other smoke and mirrors is... — read more
For those of left who want Xerox to succeed
While I understand how those who were laid off or those were rebadged may feel please do not hate us who remain devoteful to Xerox as we want to help Xerox succeed so we may provide for our families. A lot of us would be classified as low income... — read more
Xerox Managed IT
This will be done through HCL as well. How will your customers enjoy calling HCL for network support and spending 45 minutes on the phone for a simple driver install that would take 5 to 10 minutes with your competitor, located in the U.S that speaks... — read more
Changing......
"Xerox is changing" my boss said, "It's not the same Xerox" he said.... Well, look at the stock price. He was right, it's worse. The Executives are skimming more off the top, they have destroyed brand recognition, customers are leaving only... — read more
There is no place for Xerox in the future
Everything that's being done right now is only postponing the inevitable. If you think you'll still have a job here in five years you really need to think again. Not because you might get laid off or fired, but because this company most likely will... — read more
HCL visits (non GIS employees)
Has anyone who was rebadged other than GIS, seeing any visits from HCL? Everyone did their initial true up or department overview with the HCL reps but we havent seen or heard from anyone since. Were told they would be coming to do more in depth... — read more

From a sales perspective
Yes, we know the HCL changes are going to ruin customer relationships and the company. Yes, Xerox is throwing money at us to keep focused during this transition. I’ll make more this year than I have the last 15 with GIS/XBS/Xerox. Yes, I feel bad my... — read more
HCL
Has anyone been given their 60 day notice from HCL about being laid off?
Oh by the way...
the stock price is back below where it was after the FX merger was announced ($34). All that pain for so many employees, all these millions wasted on Johnny V. and is gang of thieves and for what? Nothing to show to grand-pa Icky.
You need to translate your knowledge to outside Xerox terms
I was 50 when I was laid off after 25 years. I am in the DFW area and I landed in 4 months with more money (but less vacation time). The biggest thing I see are resume issues. You need to translate your knowledge to outside Xerox terms. There are a... — read more

Rebadged employees being treated poorly. Demands from those not rebadged are out of control. Bonus’, raises, promotions for those not rebadged. If you have an opportunity for employment elsewhere take it. Management may promise some to move back... — read more
Can I refuse to Train HCL after I Quit?

Congrats Executive Team!
You guys must be so proud of your achievements! Stock price down only 3% is a fantastic outcome given the material acceleration in the rate of revenue decline/debacle. Well done - you all deserve a few more million each!
Well, I guess we can look forward to more layoffs
Revenue forecast is cut, shares went down... And we already know this leadership only knows to respond to such events in one way - more layoffs. I'm betting you we'll have a new announcement very soon... — read more
If you aren't happy, leave!
So much whining here. The economy is good, there are lots of jobs out there that may pay more. If you are truly unhappy with your job, with Xerox, and with the direction it is headed, why dwell on it? Why continue to stress yourself out, worry... — read more
Global Imaging Systems now XBS can’t save Xerox anymore

Business 101
The goose is cooked. Xerox is a dying company and the Exec board is simply trying to show profits to sell the company for as much as possible before the true ramifications of the cost cutting hit the books. It’s done folks. Wish it wasn’t true, but... — read more

What's the status of the Gil Hatch Center? Bldg. 209?
Are customer events still being held there? Are there still multiple events daily, 4-5 days/week? Is there talk about shutting it down/moving it to Raleigh or somewhere else that they consider more exciting than Webster? Thanks!
Being rebadged, a reward or a punishment?
In one sense we got to keep our jobs and our paycheck, in another we all know this is going to be a short ride. The ones that get to stay are not in a better situation, given that the fear of layoffs is still present to the same degree. Who do you... — read more

Anyone pressured to avoid honesty on the employee survey?
