If you are Xerox USCBO and were not re-badged, is your tenure being lengthened or shortened?
The vast majority of my Xerox USCBO colleagues were recently re-badged and I was not. In this environment I have no idea if this will lengthen my tenure or shorten it. Any ideas? I’m a non-exempt administrator based in the United States.
Someone let the cat out of the bag!
Wake up people! Who’s being negative now? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Lw689N7z5aUFOBzl7DDVCtjTCIxP_vvd/view
How long could Xerox last?
These are some tough times, maybe the toughest in the company history, and I tend to think that there is a big probability that we’re witnessing the last years of the company. How long do you think Xerox is going to last given the current situation... — read more
Icahn should have never split Xerox and Conduent
Icahn should have never split Xerox and Conduent as it would have saved him the time, cost and effort of launching 2 identical proxy wars. With 1, Johnny V could have received $30 Million (a savings of $10< compared to doing it twice) to oversee the... — read more

HCL and Xerox Expand Strategic Partnership Email
Thursday morning at about 5 a.m. HCL sent an email out (which was just an image with text). Obviously you can't cut an paste the text from an image, so I will type the main parts here: HCL and Xerox Expand Strategic Partnership to accelerate... — read more

Conduent next on the Ichan takeover plan
Looks like it’s hostile takeover time again.... https://www.crn.com/slide-shows/managed-services/what-you-need-to-know-about-carl-icahn-s-attempted-board-takeover-of-conduent Sound familiar folks?
This is as good as it gets
I see so many people hating on Xerox, wanting to leave, as if they don't understand the situation is no better anywhere else. All companies are like this. You might get some variations - maybe slightly better pay, slightly better benefits, but when... — read more
Epic Miscalculation
Icahn and his band of mercenaries failed to understand why GIS was successful. It wasn't the Sales Teams, the back office support, the core presidents, the local presence alone. It was the combination of all of these working together to understand... — read more
April 26 JohnV Webcast on Q1 results
This will be a waste of time, numbers will be available on the Web. Anything else he has to say will be what he wants us to believe, which at best is untrustworthy. If he does say anything credible, can always download the webcast later. The JohnV... — read more
Any chances that Xerox gets acquired?
Looks to me that they deliberately transformed into a holding so they could sell the company, bit by bit. Is there an interested potential buyer in the world that could by the whole company. Is a scenario like this even a posibility?
Conduent employees - you're about to have so much fun!
https://www.crn.com/news/channel-programs/ex-conduent-board-member-icahn-takeover-cl Conduent CEO (Ashouk) after the split... Interesting reversal since Icky chose Conduent CEO (Ashouk) after the split. The stock did well for a while, boosted by... — read more
When the financing business is sold...
Will there be layoffs when the financing business is sold? Is so, which jobs won’t transfer to the new owner?
How soon can I start working somewhere else?
I have a new job pretty much lined up, but I don't want to quit if there is a chance I can be laid off in the next few weeks and end up with severance. But my time to accept the offer is ticking away as well, so I'd probably have to start right after... — read more
The people have the power, not the corporation. But too many are cowards to take action.
A mass exodus will cripple the company and Icahn/Deason will lose millions. But the masses at Xerox are spineless cowards and won’t quit. Listen, this is the best job market in recent history. There are great jobs for those who want to work. QUIT you... — read more

HCL rebadged employees, check your W4

Refusing to re-badge
What if a certain employee refuses to re-badge to HCL. Is his fate at Xerox sealed? Does refusing present grounds for an immediate layoff? Is it even legal to lay someone off for refusing to work for a third-party company?
So, is it a surprise that a lot of this talent has left?
From 2016 through early 2018, Xerox brought in some serious talent to help ‘centralize’ and ‘harmonize’ it’s back-office functions, including HR. While there were some global ‘mandates’, such as the new HRIS system as the current systems were a... — read more
Xerox is giving back to our communities
John V sends out an email about Xerox giving back to our communities. Here’s a suggestion buddy, don’t send our freaking jobs to India. Leave them here! Keep these hard working men and women employed in our COMMUNITIES!!!!! What a hypocrite!

Anyone notice products missing, and for those that aren't missing, no download link works. (Drivers, User Guides, firmware). It's been like this for at least 12 hours.
Questionable sales compensation practices

The large amount of labor or workforce still on the books
What is the one component impacting a Xerox sale to another company? The large amount of labor or workforce still on the books. Moving a lot of people to HCL makes it easier for Xerox to divest itself of components to other companies. No bad news for... — read more

Are badgers signing new contracts with HCL?
Or are they just transferred by automatism. How does it even work? If new contracts are being signed could that affect your status in the sense that they offer lower benefits, less pay, worse conditions…. Or are the rebadgers guaranteed to have at... — read more
