Pros

If you are a self starter and don't need to be hoovered over to do what ever needs to be done it is noticed on so many levels. Pay is not bad but not as good as it used too be due to the economy and all, The Benefits are better than most companies - Health care, Vision, Dental for me and my family have been excellent. The Xerox people you work with a good majority of them help to get you up to speed. Especially if you are weak in certain areas like Networks, software and hardware installation etc...... But one thing you must have is great customer skills this is no doubt the biggest and greatest skill you can pocess. I love what I do that's being real- and I have been here 25 years to boot I was 25 when I started.

Cons

They deduct the leasing of the vehicle each month, and you also pay for personal mileage on your lease vehicle every six months let me clarify that you pay only the taxes on your personal mileage vs business miles. if you don't like tracking expenses, mileage, inventory or following processes this may not be for you. Because theirs lots of that too process each and every month. I don't know if thats a downside but it's all part of the job. Even with all this I have made things easier to do which minimizes the impact of this down side.

Pros

Flexibility of work hours. Ability to take care of personal issues without much grief from management. Challenge of working with new technologies.

Cons

Annual merit increases minimal. No effective way to reward the highest performers. Graded on the team result which allows some to slip on performance yet still get rewarded. Management always picks a new number to track and nitpick us about. No consistency of what target they want us to achieve.

Pros

Your experience will vary depending on where and for whom you work. I had an amazing manager who took to heart the concept of work/life balance. She also skillfully directed me to tasks and projects that broadened and stretched me. Salary was very competitive. Benefits were ok, but they got worse over time. National healthcare would certainly help Xerox as well as other companies with the excessive financial burden of providing healthcare benefits.

Cons

Short term senior management vision. Cutting headcount looks good on paper, and in all honesty, the first couple rounds probably did get rid of some of the dead weight. But they've gone way past cutting the fat and are now into muscle and internal organs. It's ultimately an unsustainable strategy, and short-term makes it difficult to plan and execute with so much turmoil.
