Thread regarding Xerox Corp. layoffs

To 1a5pTfhE's point: I had been an employee, quit for personal reasons, then came back contract as an engineer. Most people treated me the same as before, but there was at least one person who was very condescending, and straight out told me I could make no decisions because I was a contract. Very demoralizing, and from a business point of view, not good for Xerox bottom line. I did eventually get rehired. I am sorry to hear things have not changed with regard to contracts.

Contractors are generally viewed as one small step above dog $h-t. I am on my fifth contract here. My observation is that Xerox direct employees view me as "not in the club" and, thus, they treat me differently. Xerox employees I don't work for try to give me orders, even if they are technicians and I am an engineer.

I believe a black woman put us in this position, not the patriarchy.

What do you expect when XRX brings in patriarchy to the company and focus only on the patriarchy and profits? They don't care about women.

Yeah why are you singling out female temp workers and Canada. That’s the MO across all xerox factions and any country. Have to make the c suite look good so shareholders keep investing and so they keep getting their bonuses. You could put a monkey in those roles at c suite and they manage strategy better.

Remove the word 'female' and it reads the same.
