Thread regarding Xerox Corp. layoffs

Where is the A3 A4 inkjet from Xerox? It doesn't exist.

Ricoh makes superior low-end and high-end A3 (hardware wise) . No clutch failures(they don't have them). No reloading firmware(unlike every CK device). And solid designs that change every generation for the better.

Altalink B uses a twenty year old feedhead that takes an hour to change the feed rolls. (Vs 30 seconds on every other printer ever made)

Hp makes a superior press(it's an actual press with a blanket and plate) that our maintenance queen flagship(igen) can't compete with (or any other Xerographic platform from any vendor)

All I see is reworked controllers attached to junk recycled hardware and innovator kits(new parts that fix OEM) that never get incorporated into the next generation of the printer.

If I were HP, I would buy Ricoh simply because you need a quarter of the technicians to support a given fleet size and can sell the boxes for half the cost of Xerox with better margins

With all due respect, Xerox had technology in digital space and stopped developing it, stopped supporting it and bungled every aspect of marketing and selling it. So it’s stuck with shrinking clicks, because NO Company or organization thinks of Xerox as an innovator. Nobody. When an organization seeks digital transformation, Xerox is the last company people would put on the short list. It’s not even in the top 500 companies a CIO would pick up the phone and call. So, yes it will be death by a thousand cuts.

Executives sleep very well at night knowing their bank account is full.

i agree with attrition. i actually looked at the HCL pg on theLayoff and nothing recent. I/others think huge group moves to HCL, then reorg and further fallout at Xerox, then layoffs of many that moved from Xerox. Xerox can say they didn't directly do the layoff, but hey it's semantics

-and as for the reason they don't tell employees the whole story is that everyone would have even a worse attitude than they do now. It's the way businesses do this sort of stuff. I'm not sticking up for them, but it's just the way this stuff normally goes down.
