I don't hate Xerox as much as a lot of people do here, nor do I hate my job. However, even I am willing to admit that I don't see a way to fix this mess. We have to face facts. And facts are that Xerox is a doomed company. It can save itself with... — read more 

After each round of IRIF actions take place and you realize that you were not affected, do not breath a sigh of relief and just go back to doing your job. There WILL be more after this week. The goal of the current executive team is to sell the... — read more 

Please tell me that rumor has been proven wrong? I can't take much more of this...

A blood drive in building 335 on Wednesday. The same building will be used to process people being terminated the following day. What's next, a pound of flesh?

There was a post that mentioned a large amount of moving boxes that were ordered. An admin told me that some buildings will be vacated so they will be consolidating and moving employees. I heard many are moving to buildings 111, 207 & 208 in Webster... — read more 

Xerox used to offer a VRIF before most IRIFs. I haven't heard of this offered in the last year, is this no longer a thing? Along with that they would offer a bridge to retirement for those eligible. Have they offered this recently?

Has it been determined if layoffs are happening today or on Thursday? It'd be good to know what I'm walking into at work today. I'd like to prepare myself mentally ahead of time. (Although, in all honesty, lately I've been preparing myself for... — read more 

There has a lot of speculation that the final round of layoffs for 2018 will be on December 13th (or a recent thread indicated December 10th). There was supposed to be a layoff on November 29th, but no such layoff occurred. Rumor had it this layoff... — read more 

Anyone get the actually Democrat and Chronicle paper? Rumor is there was an ad in the D&C about Xerox moving jobs overseas in todays day paper (not online).

Anyone who received severance had to sign a document stating we would not be involved in any legal action. Unless the courts decide we were ‘coerced’, that would remove the majority of us from a class action suit. Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to see... — read more 

Everyone needs to pay attention to this. Even though they have already let many people go, they are STILL working to make it EASIER to IRIF many more. Still feel obligated to defend them? Still feel like you should "just keep your head down" and hope... — read more 

Can't help but think changes/time line to PEP is to safe guard company for further layoffs. We are "reducing documentation" and no performance ratings. So no documentation when a top performer gets laid off...

Can somebody explain to me what exactly is meant by the term "technology powerhouse?"

Not sure, heard she has been let go.

I heard from a very reliable source that the IRIF planned for today was delayed two weeks—to Thursday Dec. 13. That is pretty much the last day it could be in order to get it into 2018 (since you get two weeks paid where you don’t have to come into... — read more

Just got the meeting notice for a 1:1 with manager.

If Xerox can write off a restructuring charge for 2018 to save $$$, they will do it regardless of the impact to business lines, employees, morale, or whatnot. Board of Directors is beholden to the stockholders as well as their own fat pockets they... — read more 

It seems age discrimination and last minute policy change may be two possible actions to bring against XRX. Anything happening? How to organize?

There'll be more layoffs, we all know it. But after the rounds we just had, I think even the upper management needs some time to see how things will function with so few remaining employees in some areas before deciding on what to do next. I'm... — read more

I thought we were on a RIF high so what's the point if the company just turns around and re-hires people for those positions?

Multiple reports here and at work about layoffs this Wednesday. Has anybody heard any details, or have a sense on the reliability of these rumors?

The last few months it's been quiet. I'm sure there have been some reductions, they must have been pretty small to keep mostly under the radar. In years past, November has been the month when the hammer falls. There isn't much time left in the month... — read more

30 years, 23 different managers. What a great outfit that is now a total train wreck. They don’t have a clue. If you aren’t old enough to retire, get yourself on the market; sure, you don’t want to get laid off, but there’s nothing to stay for. Get... — read more 

Guaranteed to have layoffs. I survived 8 of them over the last 17 years. Most "re-structuring" layoffs occur between late October and mid-December. To appease shareholders or potential buyers. Other minor layoffs occur throughout the year as they are... — read more 

Xerox is telling it's development "partner" (outsourcer) which people it doesn't want after X months in site Y. Doesn't count as a headcount reduction as they aren't directly employed by Xerox.

Question #1 - how long does it take for me to receive the severance check after signing all paperwork? Question #2 - are we prohibited from collecting unemployment until the severance is burned up? Thanks
