Thread regarding Xerox Corp. layoffs

Startup Model for a "Fortune 500"

Welcome to Xerox, where we tout our Fortune 500 status (likely will fall pretty soon) while changing and adding new systems for our sales teams without sufficient training, no change in expectations, increasing the pressure, disincentivizing big sales, and not fixing the things that still don't work beforehand.

Should we fix the poor Hubspot integration before adding a totally new frontend? Nah! You'll be fine! Should we fix our client facing websites and services before changing demanding higher volume of sales? Nah! You just need to execute "faster". And the list goes ON and ON. Oh, and let's dissolve the sales training leaders while we're at it so new hires are at the mercy of the sales team they are joining, thus becoming a burden.

I now have 10X more responsibility I had before without 10X the pay. Once I get my next job, I am OUT of here. I wish everyone the best.

We're more Mad Magazine than Fortune 500.
What, me worry?
I think there's a page in there of a wide format photo of the company completely falling apart, fold the edges in and it shows SB floating on a pink ducky tube in a pool.

Xrx is not a fortune 500 company. Not even close.

Xerox is $0.174B, the 500th ranked is $5.5B
In other words, the 500th ranked is equal to 31 x Xerox

@a3 correct - we are far far from being on Forbes radar :)

Isn’t seems you don’t know what Fortune 500 means. We haven’t been Fortune 500 in 20 years. Today we are not even Fortune 10,000.
