Thread regarding Xerox Corp. layoffs

Can we use this forum for more?

Situation: Layoffs have been occurring almost continually globally for the past period, at least 8 years, possibly much longer. Yet we only here anecdotal information regarding details.
Idea: Instead of just posting here, alert any remaining local media sources in your region about what has happened. Maybe that has already been done. If so, post a link to the article here where others can share on social media. If not, tell the story and if the media is still well-funded enough, may be able to do some investigative reporting. The idea is to get a larger audience aware of the ongoing removal of employees.
Benefits:

  • Increased possibilities of potential new employees thinking twice before joining
  • raised awareness of retail investors who are chasing a dividend or turnaround,
  • expanded visibility for current employees to what is actually happening in the environment (particularly remote employees who don't see their co-workers being walked out)
  • Feel good effect by letting a broader audience know what the company is attempting to keep hidden

@as responding to only emergencies yet everything is an emergency at X. That is why it is always so chaotic and no one knows what to do or when to do it.

Wouldn't hiring your own kid be a conflict of interest for anyone else? I mean so is a manager causing someone to......but they get away with all kinds of things

You do realize how local media works, right? It's all paid for. Paid to keep things out of the news. Why do you think it isn't in the news?

How about you all just look for a job. Our "management team" has always lived in the moment, responding only to emergencies. There are never plans that last longer than a week. I have a better idea. Start ba----g on XRX sycophants on LinkedIn to point out their stupidity and dishonesty. Start with the nitwit that hired his own kid.

8 years?? Gimme a break!! Here is one from Dec 8, 1993. Text below taken from paywalled https://buffalonews.com/news/article_2c9766d7-b0ee-5780-9a42-b7ff155e847e.html

Xerox Corp. said today it will eliminate more than 10,000 jobs, or about 10 percent of its worldwide work force, to cut costs and improve productivity.

The copier maker said it also will close and consolidate an unspecified number of its manufacturing plants.

Most of the 10,000 jobs will be eliminated through layoffs, Xerox spokesman Judd Everhart said. Xerox expects about 500 jobs a year to be eliminated through attrition, and the company does not plan to offer enhanced severance packages to employees, he said.

Xerox declined to specify which plants will be affected by the layoffs and shutdowns. Analysts said they believe Xerox's Rochester manufacturing operations, which constitute the largest concentration of facilities, are a likely target. Xerox employs about 14,800 workers in the area, 10,000 of them in Webster, a suburb of Rochester.

@OP Good idea, but paywalls might interfere with many links, a sign of the times. Anyway here are a couple:
