What else can go wrong?
With these bozos in charge, what disaster is going to happen next? I would not be surprised if they accidentally post customer list and pricing information! For that matter, employees who are fed up could also start sharing this info with the... — read more
Does anybody realy wan’t to buy Xerox anymore?
Heard a lot of talk about Xerox being sold of as a whole company or in pieces. Everybody is mentioning that in a sence that it is something bad that should be avoided. On the other hand I keep wondering why would anyone want to buy such a failing... — read more
Customers must now fix their own devices
Xerox kicked off new direction today to not help a customer that calls in for service if they will not troubleshoot the device with the id--t foreign help desk person first. So if a customer calls in and needs a tech but is too busy doing their job... — read more

HCL found about the cat getting out!
You no longer have access to the Group Xerox-OTC, haha too late HCL! I hope every Core was able to print and/or save the PPT and share it with everyone 🤣
Where did we get it wrong?
And I ask this question aside from the fact that the business is declining and what Xerox has to offer is no longer needed…. Many other companies in the business have the same challenges and yet they manage to survive and not make a mess of things... — read more
Service Support Groups?
What are XBS cores hearing about the service support groups not rebadged to HCL? Help desk, customer service/dispatch, remote install teams .. become Xerox Service or outsourced later?
JohnnyV PERSONAL USE CORPORATE AIRCRAFT $275,000 !!!
So JohnnyV has time to use the Xerox Corporate Jet for $275K of personal usage!. His predecessor, Jacobson, only racked up $5K usage. Perhaps we can see more JohnnV dances at communication meetings. Got a new "Change of Control" contract too. Life is... — read more
An unpopular opinion
Not a popular opinion, but maybe, just maybe, this is the best thing that has happened to Xerox. Clearly the old and trusted management didn't have a clear idea how to move the company forward, let alone taking it into the digital age, except for... — read more

I wasn’t offered to re-badge. What does that mean?
My whole group is in the part of the company that is set for outsourcing. Eve though I thought I was going to ge a re-badge offer I was moved to another department within Xerox. What exactly does that mean? Do they find my skills valuable and that’s... — read more

Earnings coming this week, more cost cutting?
I have not heard anything about Q1 earnings. Are they likely bad? What's the next round of cost cuttings? I wonder if they will finish this whole GIS/XBS thing before finding the next lowest hanging piece of fruit to trim out.
Outsourcing was supposed to be about quality
When outsourcing fist hit the scene, it was based on scale of economies. In other words, companies move their ‘non-core’ functions that they may not have the experience and depth to be the best to a company who focus is on that function and can put... — read more
Military Customers
Does anyone know how these layoffs, down sizing, rebadging is effecting the military customers? I remember the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines were great customers replacing equipment every two years or so. Big money for Xerox.
What is Core, GIS, etc?
Can someone please explain Xerox's U.S. structure? I'm in Canada. Here it's mainly a mix of Agent and Xerox Direct, as well as resellers and Channel Alliance partners. I'm not familiar with many of the terms like Core and GIS to name a couple. What... — read more
Happy Easter!
Wishing all on this board a happy Easter! Enjoy this time with your family. Hope the coming weeks are good for you and that you find new (and better) employment.
How much is Xerox saving with the HCL deal?
In any way I think about this, I come up with the same answer. It wasn’t worth it! People losing jobs, other rebadged to train their replacements, and nobody can guarantee that the quality of work will be maintained, much less that it will be better... — read more

If you are Xerox USCBO and were not re-badged, is your tenure being lengthened or shortened?
The vast majority of my Xerox USCBO colleagues were recently re-badged and I was not. In this environment I have no idea if this will lengthen my tenure or shorten it. Any ideas? I’m a non-exempt administrator based in the United States.
Someone let the cat out of the bag!
Wake up people! Who’s being negative now? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Lw689N7z5aUFOBzl7DDVCtjTCIxP_vvd/view

Icahn should have never split Xerox and Conduent

Epic Miscalculation

Any chances that Xerox gets acquired?
Looks to me that they deliberately transformed into a holding so they could sell the company, bit by bit. Is there an interested potential buyer in the world that could by the whole company. Is a scenario like this even a posibility?

How soon can I start working somewhere else?

The people have the power, not the corporation. But too many are cowards to take action.
A mass exodus will cripple the company and Icahn/Deason will lose millions. But the masses at Xerox are spineless cowards and won’t quit. Listen, this is the best job market in recent history. There are great jobs for those who want to work. QUIT you... — read more
