Has anyone had the JLL people to their remaining open offices? We had them in last week and it was so weird watching them go around and record everything. Upper management didn’t say much about why they were there or what happens next. Wondering if... — read more 

If this transition into a holding didn't open the eyes of the employees I don’t know what will. They are practically getting the company ready for sale. I wonder if anyone buys the story about being a tach powerhouse anymore?

I see so many people saying they are staying just for the severance - as if it was a guaranteed thing if they just wait it out. But severance is not an obligation - it is literally the company's good will on whether they will provide it or not during... — read more 

Transition to a holding company has little to no impact TODAY on us. Think of it as a yard sale. By creating a holding company Xerox is organizing its various divisions under a new umbrella, getting everything ready for sale. Just like a yard sale... — read more 

I’m sure nobody can answer this question precisely, but does anyone have any idea how this transformations are handled in terms of severance? I’m sure that there will be cuts shortly so this of big interest to me.

Sorry to hear about the difficulties at Xerox. Neither of our companies appear to have stellar leaders. Since we split it was all about cutting and now they want to grow. But lots of folks who could have generated growth were RIF’ed or quit. We... — read more 

Some changes are bound to happen. I can’t imagine thing staying the way they are in terms of the headcount of workers. You may disagree, but for me the only questions are when, in what for, and how many people.

Most have bailed. Either...Early happy hour or off to family. It takes a bit to brush the dust off after getting out of the coal mine.

Can Xerox get external consulting for internal company infrastructure? It’s pretty messy so far! What could an “extra” hr investment like this, cause after all the financial losses because of their stupidity of firing high quality employees, ascend... — read more 

Could someone please explain. What does that whole story mean. What will be better at Xerox when it becomes a holding company? Also, does this transition imply an organization on a personal level? Will there be cuts when the reorg happens?

Thoughts on what it means? No communication from senior management?

Do we have any idea when it's coming? I can't wait to be out of this place...

How about getting ahead of the wave? The way Xerox has been laying off, there will be so many people looking for a job in similar fields that competition for open positions will be fierce. Why wait for a small severance and risk not having a job for... — read more

Does anyone know how many people worked in the Florida office? How many people were let go? I'll admit, I didn't know much about Global, nor how they operated. Did they just have the one location? Anyone have any insight?

It’s unfortunate we got caught up in John Visentin ’s, Carl Icahn’s, and Darwin Deason’s agenda to line their pockets with more money. They have destroyed the morale of the employees who dedicated their lives to their core company. We all know what... — read more 

Don’t get me wrong, I liked a lot of things here, and as a long-time employee it’s far from easy, but there is no use staying at a company that is downfaling every day and where there is not a hint of some innovation that can bring it out of the mud... — read more
