Intimidation of temp staff not to work OT at Xerox Canada?

Earlier this year, I heard that the agency staff were being scolded into working OT, and that they are given more work for the same minimum wage. Is this still occurring at the Xerox Canada branches in Toronto and Scarborough?

Rebadges happening in Canada

Can anyone confirm that a mass HCL rebadge happened recently in the Canadian offices? Also, if you are rebadged you will soon be fired and replaced by a Guatemalan.

Long suffering employees

I think there are a lot of them. Some have decided to leave Xerox after the first red flags and they have done so, while others have been seeing red flags for a while and intend to leave, but they are still there. Honestly, how long have you been... — read more 

Xerox won’t pursue non-competes

For whom does this company exist anyways?

Does X exist only for shareholders? It kind of seems that way to me. It does not exist for customers, nor is it there for its employees, but only for top dogs and shareholders. Isn't something like that unsustainable? Xerox used to be a much... — read more 

Xerox is F******, discuss.

How long until this pile of **** collapses? I worked there for nearly 30 years but the last 5 were ex------t.

Too much of a good thing

I just realized that by this time on weekends I'm already starting to stress and dread the coming Monday and having to deal with work again. I can't tell you what a relief it is to know that I have an extra day. This actually feels so good that it... — read more 

Then vs. now

Things have changed so much. I’ve been here for over 10 years and the difference back then compared to the present is huge. I used to enjoy my job and the people that I worked with. I am thankful to still be employed but I hate what I do every day... — read more

And when a downturn hits...

The biggest opportunity associated with working for Xerox is to use the brand recognition to get out, and to get paid while searching for a new job. I would never recommend taking a position at Xerox - look elsewhere. Especially given that the... — read more 

Cheap labor wont fix anything

I don't intend to be here much longer. It will be interesting to see from a distance what results their strategy to use cheap labor will bring. Do they think that cheap labor will fix all the problems in this company? Unfortunately, I don't think it... — read more 

Why is there no decisive strategic direction?

That's where it all starts. This company became vulnerable a long time ago and began to "wander" and sink, precisely because the management was never ready to make any brave strategic decision for the future. It seems so to me anyways. What is the... — read more 

To say Xerox is a joke would be an understatement

All the smartest people are long gone. Most of those left are the few smart folks waiting to retire, underachievers who have no other options but to stick around, and new people who are looking to leave within a week of working here. This place has... — read more

Hiring Referral Bonus

Can you believe the nerve of the [expletive here] management in Xerox? They are offering a $1,500 bonus if you hoodwink some poor slob to bust rocks on the chain gang of despair. How about I call the hundreds of people you sent to the unemployment... — read more 

Are your skills worth more in other companies?

To be honest, I lingered here because I thought my skillset wasn’t enough to find any better job. Especially considering my age, I thought I had no chance in the job market, so I didn’t even try much to find anything better. It turned out that my... — read more 

What were your priorities after Xerox?

Wow, it looks like everyone got a lot better jobs after Xerox. I’m glad if that’s true, but unfortunately, I think the truth is always somewhere in the middle. I eventually accepted a much paid job, but I had to move. As for other benefits, they are... — read more

Promotions need to go to deserving people

It's really disheartening to see that the company continues to promote bad people despite ample evidence that such nepotism-based promotions are ruining Xerox. People who have no idea how to do their jobs and what we do in the first place are... — read more
