Thread regarding Xerox Corp. layoffs

More cuts are possible in the next year

The third quarter report gives the numbers:

  • 900 employees cut in Q3, with corresponding severance costs (under the reduced severance schedule) of $40 million.

  • Expectation is to spend $67 million in additional restructuring over the next year.

Assuming the percentage of severance to overall restructuring costs stays the same as in Q3, as does the severance cost per employee, the expectation would be an additional ~1470 employees cut worldwide over the next year.

So far in 2018, Xerox has cut ~6% of its employees. 1470 employees is about 4.5% of the current workforce, so the pain will continue, but maybe the pace will slow slightly.

It's anybody's guess when & where these cuts will be spread over the next 4 quarters.

Just to be clear this is not confirmed info, nor has any official statement from the company been issued regarding this. This is just an opinion of the OP ( @VQaUDnz-2yjm ) based on some facts. You gotta admit, when he puts it like this it does seem plausible.

In the 8-k they state that they will use up a named amount on severance (new) in 4q2018-3q2019 and it adds up to at least 1000 souls.
