is HCL a real company or a front for a Xerox sell off?

i swear that never in my life have i seen anything like what is going on. HCL has gotten NOTHING right. Nobody can get a straight answer, to anything! They supposedly have over 100,000 employees but their head of HR could not even explain on the... — read more

Xerox, Global Imaing, XBS

I've heard that Global Imaging service technicians, now XBS technicians, no longer report to their XBS/GIS core or the service managers associated with the core. Instead they report to Xerox directly. Is this correct? If so how is this any different... — read more

GIS/XBS employees 401K not being matched?

Not sure if this applies to Xerox employees but GIS/XBS employees got 401k match through the company. We all received a letter at the end of last year telling us the match was going down but were still getting something. Well a bunch of us have... — read more 

Copied from the HP lay-off comments

Any XBS cores hear from Al lately?

He's been a ghost for weeks. Doesn't respond to email or calls, but his email still shows up on stuff and doesn't auto reply back that he's out. I've heard rumors of XBS corporate folks leaving but haven't heard his name mentioned yet.

What's the next big move?

Not hearing any rumors. With all the HCL rebadging in the last couple weeks, are there any credible rumors of another wave? Sure it's going to happen, but not sure when or what organizations. With the push to become a tech powerhouse, will management... — read more
