Pros

Great people, competitive products. Great training. Good work environment. Opportunity to be promoted. Decent pay.

Cons

Xerox provides a commodity service and often prices themselves right out of the business. Contractually hard to do business with. The stock prices haven't moved much above $10.00 due to the lack of shareholder confidence and poor analysts forecasts. Xerox needs to use their resources to diversify their offerings and enter into new non-conventional markets or consider a merger with one of the other copier giants and rule the market. Unfortunately when Xerox is not going to meet their Wall Street projections, they often cut their overhead and operating costs by laying off tenured and very loyal employees. That action sets a bad tone for those who remain employed and sets an ongoing fear factor that they might be next. Layoffs now occur during each quarter of the year. The company is always in a re-active mode.

Pros

Big company with solid benefits

Cons

Pay is not on par with competition and raises are very hard to get. If you don't get what you are looking for when hired you will likely never get it.
