Thread regarding Xerox Corp. layoffs

No incentive to work....lower than low morale.

Last Friday my manager called me in to show me what I'll be taking over for my laid off friends and co-workers. I asked him if management REALLY cared if the work was done or not. He could only shrug and reply, "I don't know...". Oh brilliant!

I'm only staying on to pad my bank account for as long as I can to build up survival funds while looking for something else. But I have absolutely no incentive to work...no desire to receive accolades for a job well done. I'm finished with all the mid-year BS evaluations required by HR. Yes, they are hemorrhaging money when you add the number of people who feel the same way. I guess I'm stealing their money by being non-poroductive but that's the only thing that feels good.

Don't call the 800 number listed on this page! It's a SCAM!

In engineering we still have a ton of work. We have been mostly spared so far, but I don't expect that to be the case for the rest of the year. At some point I'm sure we will be identified as fat and we'll have to start trimming.

I can't imagine losing any people and trying to pick up the slack.

At least your manager is honest. My coworkers and I have our 'Dead Man Walking' date and mgmt is all smiles and 'how are you doing?' when we pass in the hall. I'm not looking for pity, but get real. Just say hello and walk on by. This is beyond mo--nic.
