Absolutely horrid. Deck was as thin as the substance, which given the size of the miss is really indicative: evident to all that xrx is more lipstick than pig. Only interesting part was the small print disclaimers; Non GAAP Financial Measures. If xrx... — read more
Stock up
JB and SB are doing it. New look of Xerox seems to be very well received by the Street. Optimistic about the future. Low performers should be worried (obviously). High performers, giddy up. Change was needed, change is happening, finally.
Inquiring minds want to know: Did TK get the boot or jump on her own?
Would be interesting to really know if TK left on her own, or was told to hit the road? Her package is not listed on SEC Edgar site, I suspect she is still on payroll and it will be listed when she is officially gone, other than a good-bye note she... — read more

Fudged numbers???
Some posts suggesting that TKkk fudged numbers. Can you say more?
Is this just US based?
Are the layoffs primarily affecting US markets or going to be seeing cuts globally. Aren’t the UK going into a recession!?
Its mostly the direct sales that is going to get cut.
The press reporting the 15% story clearly don't get what’s happening. Several of the have reported a 15% cut of “staffers” Its not staff thats going to take the brunt of the cuts. Its SALES. All those former GIS cores, “specialists”, all the direct... — read more
Chaos till Q1?
Are we really going to be in this chaos all the way until Q1 earnings are published? And then, just more layoffs? Glorious reorg, this one is.
Could anyone recap the Fireside Chat that JB had yesterday?
I was not able to get on the call. Can anyone give a recap? They never posted a replay. I have only heard so far that he said bankruptcy and that things will break.
End of the iGen?
JC-S, JW, SH! Gone? Is this it for the iGen?
Its a chaos here
Our location is in total disarray this week. No work getting done, just people talkong about the layoffs, reorg and what-ifs. Were probably all out of here in a few weeks. Heck, the headquarters “leadership” is probably out too. It definitely has... — read more

What do you get if you volunteer to go?
What is the package to volunteer for US based employees? I am not volunteering until I know what the offer is - it might just be a bigger box to pack up your '#$!&' and get out. If that is the case I will take my chances - and hope to collect more... — read more
CEO Club - the last hoorah
Did I hear right that senior leadership is actually bringing back CEO club this year?? We just announced a “strategic realignment” that means eliminating 15% more of our workforce and someone thinks it’s a good idea to go spend millions on a trip to... — read more
Here's what I know...so far
RB is taking over JCS's responsibilities on an interim basis. AL from ESI is out (unsure if fired or resigned) and KP from C2 in VT (2021 ITS acquisition) is taking on some/all of his workload, which will be a disaster. RB is saying there will be... — read more
Another useless reorg?
I've been working here for years, and went through so many reorgs that I lost count on how many times I dodged the bullet. I don't stress about it anymore as much. Over years you kinda develop your own coping mechanism and the routine of putting... — read more

For those about the “divvy”: hold tight, no more cash dividends for now?
