Any validity to this?

This is all on management
So many people I know are justifying what's happening to Xerox with the fact that we're a part of a dying industry. But I'm not buying that. Look at our competitors. Most of them are adjusting to changing times much better than we are and most of... — read more
Layoffs today, Canadian head office
announcement was made, 3 departments from the head office in Toronto will be outsourced to HCL in India
COVID vaccines?
Can Xerox legally madate all their employees to get a Covid vaccine? I know some people that have moral or ethical objections to the current vaccines being used.
Do you expect to be laid off before the end of Q2?
I'm pretty sure I'll be notified before the end of Q2, I don't know about you. There are people who believe that this will not happen to them, at least not before the end of the quarter, but I believe noone is safe anymore. I have some weird feeling... — read more

Xerox refusing to listen to Purolator truck driver concerns of safety hazard on Xerox premises?
I work at the dock at Xerox in Toronto, Canada. For the past month, the Purolator truck driver complains every day that one of the pump trucks are too narrow to carry large cages. He is concerned for his safety, and he refuses to use the pump... — read more
COBRA & American Rescue Plan?
I was recently laid off and was wondering if anyone else has heard anything about Xerox participating with the American Rescue Plan Act which went into effect yesterday. As of right now switching my healthcare plan to COBRA would be over a 200%... — read more
Fujifilm renames office equipment unit after ending ties with Xerox
It is now Fujifilm Business Innovation Corp. I wonder, based on this news article, if Fuji will open up sales channels in the US and compete directly with Xerox. https://this.kiji.is/750297738008182784?c=445918389795193953 Fujifilm Holdings... — read more
Toxic workplace in Toronto Xerox
Why does my job contract stipulate that my Supervisor is a Xerox staff who doesn't talk to me, but the actual supervisor is a micro-manager bully who was intimidating the female temp staff and caused a few to leave or find another job? Is this how... — read more
How easy is it to be fired from here?
I haven’t been here very long and I wonder how easy it is to be fired from here (in general, not through company downsizing or anything like that). I used to work in a company where it was very easy to get fired for a trifle even without breaking ... — read more
Nothing to do
Anybody finding themselves with less and less to do? And most of it is training new employees to do what I used to do? I have a feeling this is intentional and I'm pretty certain my days are numbered. Has anybody been in a similar situation? Is there... — read more
401k Match Suspension for 2021 - US

Xerox Information Security
anyone know what is left of the Information Security Org? Back in 2015 or so it had over 100 people working for that organization. I assume it's all been outsourced.
Non sales bonuses
Is it true Xerox took away all non sales bonuses while they re-structure comp plans?
Abuse and harassment of female temp workers at Xerox Canada?
Is it common for female temp contractors to complain that they are being verbally abused, intimidated and felt fear for not meeting quotas at Xerox Canada? There were many female staff who complained to me that when they don't meet quotas, such as... — read more
Temp agency "Manager" coerced me to work faster than a label printer, I QUIT and got a better paying job
Long story short, the Temp Agency Manager kept on pressuring me to do the job of 3 employees, because a coworker got a better job offer, left the very day she got the offer. There was only 35% temp contract workers remaining in the project. The... — read more
"BE GLAD THAT YOU HAVE A JOB", the rest of the world is not hiring, says the Xerox Manager
This meeting occured when temp staff were complaining that they are given more work for the same pay, Xerox employees treat them as second class citizens, and they are being coerced to do more work for the same pay by the very company which... — read more
I have a question about a recent VIPP survey I was asked to fill out...
Ex-X, then Ex-HCL person here, who is still on the Xerox VIPP Support Forum (That's what I did when I was "X" :-) Just received an invitation to fill out a "How do you use VIPP" survey. My First thought was.. well.. I don't use VIPP.. ... — read more
How do you deal with their unrealistic goals?
Goals imposed on employees are becoming increasingly unrealistic. Management does not care that the printing labels take time to print, and that it’s unrealistic to assume that data entry quotas are the same number as printing bill of... — read more
HCL Bonus
Anyone else get the HCL Bonus? In recognition of HCL hitting 10B in revenue they gave all employees 10 days of salary as a bonus on their pay. They also do performance reviews and raises. Seems to be better working for HCL than Xerox at this point... — read more
I don’t want to do someone else’s job

Will Xerox Canada get better?
This is the question that many of the couriers were hypothesizing when I discussed with them that almost every staff at XRX is from a temp agency, except for maybe 5 or 6 staff who are segregated from the cage of temp employees. One truck driver... — read more
No presence of Xerox in Asia next week onwards?
Withe the end of Fujifilm - Xerox JV in Asia (under the brand Fuji Xerox), from April 1st, and no sign of Xerox in any part of Fuji Xerox marketing territory. Is it Xerox strategy to let go a big slice of FX revenue from here on?
Less staff but the same work or more work?
For the past year, there are less staff in the digital services, but they do the work of 2 to 3 people for minimum wage as a contract employee. Is this the norm for Xerox in Canada? The "Supervisors" at Xerox rarely interact with the temp staff... — read more
secrets
We lost two managers in service although no one has told anyone yet "officially." Technicians asking questions, call center don't know squat on who to go to for answers either. What a joke. Speaking of call centers, anyone know if they are on the... — read more
Moving to a privately owned dealership model?
I think what many are clearly missing, Xerox is moving away from a direct sales force to a privately owned dealership model. The same as the competitors. Reduces overhead significantly on Xerox while passing the buck to dealers. If you step back and... — read more

Effective Monday, March 22nd, all contract workers at Xerox will be furloughed for 2 weeks (for now) to save money right before the end of the quarter. Contract workers were notified by their managers today.
Attrition is sky-high
What does it say about a company if the attrition rate is sky-high during an outbreak of a deadly virus that has brought the economy to its knees? Honestly? This place has become so rotten and so demoralizing that people are willing to walk away even... — read more
How can Xerox turn around?
I know there are people who are hoping Xerox will turn around and we'll once again have job security and better work environment and pay and whatnot. My question is how? How can this happen? We are part of a dying industry. If we pivot one way or... — read more
Tuesday 16 March
This topic created for discussion of the layoffs occurring today. Thanks TTX for the heads up 6 days ago, the information was accurate as people are being notified this morning.
I hate being in this position
I've been here for nearly 25 years. That's how long ago I filled out my last job application and I had my last job interview. With Xerox in a state that it's in, I know it's better for me to start looking but I have no idea where to start. I'm... — read more
A little support
I left XBS a few months ago and now I earn a lot more, I have a lot more benefits and I am in a company that provides employees with much better working conditions. It may not be comforting, but there is a life after XBS. In the short term, dismissal... — read more
XBS SouthEast
So how’s it going with the 3 companies at XBS Southeast? I was a tech at the largest of the 3, and from what I’ve heard it’s not gotten any better since I left. I’d be curious if sales was anywhere close to what they were at prior to 2018. — read more
Another round Tuesday...
Not sure how deep this one will be... might just be a few, might be a lot. 😮. Sad to see our brethren get hit. From a good source...
Why wasn’t it done a long time ago?
Sales salaries are too high, underperforming reps are satisfied with this and have been coasting along. Too many sales managers with not enough employees. They need to reduce sales managers and have more report to them. There needs to be an overhaul... — read more
ServiceNow?
Does anyone know when XBS will be migrating to ServiceNow? Also, what impact will this have on the techs, parts, and supplies?
