Thread regarding Konica Minolta layoffs

Direct Business sold off to dealers...

Does anyone have a sense of which and/or how many locations are being packaged to dealers?

Ge----o tactics and bold face lies from management. No wonder they are locked up with security like they are on Madison avenue in Chicago. Long before Covid and the rise in crime.

Shaking my head at the arrogance and the Legacy garbage they preach.

I didn’t believe it then and certainly don’t now. Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of holier than thou dictators.

Nothing surprises me at this militaristic excuse for a real company.

The people are scared of management from the ivory tower. And the people in the ivory tower are out to intimidate anyone who questions their opinions.

I have personally seen people with 20-30 years experience, scared of their own shadows after dealing with these people. These self appointed gods are vindictive and arrogant, and are on a total power trip.

Anyone staying here and working with these dictators is part of the problem and not the solution here.

If you don’t believe me. Just hang around. You are certain to be hit by so called friendly fire and become a causality.

I would not work here ever again for all the tea in China buddy. No possible way.

This place is nothing but Tin plated dictators who don’t have an ounce of common sense. Everyone in upper management here thinks they are Gods gift to man. They would sell your soul in a heartbeat for a nickel.

Konica surprised our employees and customers by dumping us over to a local dealer. Gave no warning and turned all of our lives upside down. After 90 days we have lost all our sales and logistics staff. Service techs are planning on leaving as soon as GPS micro managing starts.
Really a horrible company! We were promised no layoffs and guaranteed our jobs. But the former CEO burned us good.

Does makes perfect sense and long overdue = I’m seeing this from all players and the conversations with dealers are really heating up.
Selling off or “giving away” basically amount to the same thing. No such thing as a free lunch so “giving base” will come with a lot of contractual conditions to the dealer. KM better hurry up because clock is ticking and competitor Dealer channels are running.

Branches have been a money suck of KM for some time. Covid or not, this makes sense and is long overdue. If anything, this is a positive for the company.
