Without any exaggeration, I do the amount of work for three people. I doubt that other people's situation is any better. After more people left, I expected them to be replaced. However, this has not happened, nor is there any indication that it could... —  read more 

After reading alot of negative reviews about bad managers, bad products and horrible work ethic. I was wondering why Ricoh don't have a union

So much easier being a ricoh tech with incredible technological leaps in innovation like this!

IF ricoh is good at anything its keeping everyone but Japan senior management in the dark and being vague about any specific direction. Maybe they should get into the mushroom growing business. I'm not anticipating any big reveal April 1st but the... —  read more 

What’s the rumors and predictions for April first for Ricoh? I heard 5 new Ricoh companies to replace the one large direct organization. Will they maintain sales and service or just be a manufacturer that supports dealers? If its all changing... —  read more 

Was just wondering if anyone noticed anything just before the voluntary separation emails were received over the last couple of years. About two or three weeks before the email came, we had an office meeting. Before the meeting started, the manager... —  read more

No surprise, dismal Q3 results, losses across the board. https://www.printweek.com/news/article/ricoh-results-reflect-covid-impact Hang on for the ride or bail before the ship sinks?

Nothing is impossible but I wonder if you believe there is a high probability that by next year Ricoh will be out of business (as someone wrote on this forum). I personally hope that this will never happen, but without all those great people that... —  read more 

Ricoh of old is long gone, it's no longer even a shell of its former self. There are people who like to cling to the past but it's time to be realistic about this place. I would advise everybody to look for a way out. I doubt the situation will... —  read more 

ricoh has wanted out of anything to do with print in the worst way for years. Problem is they could n't just walk away from it and now are drastically running out of time and resources. Just too many albatrosses around its neck. If question was "Sink... —  read more 

I heard there might have been some layoffs today, is this true?

No communication from management. No career goals, no raises in quite some time......What lies ahead for April 1st?

Somebody mentioned there might be another round of layoffs in January, has there been any news on that?

Ohhh, ricoh. Spent decades reacting and modeling xerox. Ricoh chased xerox right down the drain. The only thing ricoh will produce soon are HUGE power point decks trying to convince customers and internal rubes to drink their kool-aid made from... —  read more

Wanted to inquire whether there has been a large furlough or lay off of employees in Connecticut within the past 6 or 8 monthes ? Specifically the Springfield, Glastonbury and Rocky Hill copier technical training division? Thank you

I think Ricoh should buy another manufacturer like Kyocera during this time. It would expand footprint in sales and service and secure some faith in the company as a whole. Patiently waiting for April fools day.

Next month or will they wait until next year?

Puzzling that there's such a big discrepancy. Reviews are either, "the worst place on earth" or "everything is awesome!" Last few reviews are all glowing positive... looks like north of the border is now the land of milk and honey. Well done RCI!
