Some uncommunicated details

What I have heard from a few different sources: count 532, not all Webster, many managers and departments. Severance is leftover vacation, 1 week/year of service, capped at 12. Some we're walked out, others til end of month. Is over? Maybe not til... — read more

Is Xerox really to blame?

You're safe until 2019

Congratulations, you made it through another round of layoffs! Go home, eat, drink, be merry. You have nothing to fear for the rest of 2018. 2019 is shaping up to be the year Xerox is divided & sold to multiple companies. The brand will continue but... — read more

How many?

People seem to be saying one was laid off here, five there... All small numbers. Does that mean that this was one of Xerox's smaller rounds? Or have there been more layoffs we are not hearing about here? It'd also be good to know if this will... — read more

Severance?

What is the current severance package for those being IRIF'd today? I was let go after 38 years when they shut down our research center two years ago. At that time we still got 1 week per year of service, but I have heard that is no longer the case... — read more

There is no fixing this

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

Moving boxes might not be related to layoffs

VRIF and bridging to retirement

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?

Xerox doesn’t lose many legal battles

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
