Xerox Employment Numbers - Q2
I read in the Q2 financial report that the quarter end employment number was 16,600. Does that include Lexmark personnel? If yes, that means prior Xerox people remaining must be around 12,000 or so world wide?
Im from Lexmark engineering R&D division. What would a xerox employee want to tell us?
Ive read the post here and they are damning. Makes me fear for my career.

Q3 bonus and layoffs
So heard today no bonus next quarter and layoffs before Christmas due to Lexmark doubling up staff and I’ve had to job match my team.
Why I want to leave
Clueless and ineffective management Office politics make daily work stressful Almost no opportunities for career growth Hard work often leads to extra tasks instead of recognition Job security favors those who play along rather than perform
Layoffs confirmed for October and next year Q1, 2 waves
RIF planning now in the works. They did not even make us sign an NDA which is unusual.

Xerox needs layoffs
We will not survive like this. I vote for getting rid of two to three layers of management. That would solve so many of our issues.

What’s with the notes circulating about the legal restructure at XBS , and why now? And why are they asking employees to re sign employment agreements? Could it be that they’re sneaking in updated non competes?

It could be worse, at least Xerox isn't Kodak
It took Kodak 20+ years to get to the point where they might finally go out of business, per news reports. Xerox isn't in nearly the same boat.
