Too much to account for and all at the expense of brainless leaders.

Xerox by layoffs and furloughs has proven to be a good training ground for future competitors employee base.

I left and I’m doing amazing mainly because of Xerox. Took my skills and talent that they helped me develop during the good times and squandered by making the environment so terrible that I had to leave.

I took all my experience and talent developed over the years to a company that values me and is happy that I'm there. I didn't think there was anything after X but life is much better. Get out now....really.

In my last few years at Xerox, all my "skills" and "talents" were considered subpar. I was completely disheartened and discouraged. I was with Xerox for 25 years, and gave my heart and soul to it. After a heartbreaking bad review, I found a new job and quit. Now, suddenly, I am considered quite an asset to my new company. So you ask, how much talent was squandered? Almost every person I worked with in the trenches was a great asset to Mother Xerox. And almost all of them were treated like dogs in one way or another. So I say, billions of dollars of talent and skill have walked out the door of Xerox. And the worst thing is, Xerox doesn't even recognize this to this day. The big wig in HR does not recognize talent. The big jerk in the head office does not recognize talent.

During my long career at XRX, I only met a handful of people who were truly talented and confident but their hands were usually tied by political appointees.

Same thing at Ricoh. The new people have no idea what their doing. Document services companies are just going down faster than I ever thought possible.
