Pros

Xerox was open to broadening skills by moving between areas within the technical departments. Also open to educating their employees both internally and externally (local colleges). Compensation was OK, benefits were continued to be cut back during my tenure. Xerox allowed employees to get time off when needed for personal reasons.

Cons

Too much emphasis on EEO. Got to the point where EEO promotions superceded promotions for performance. That's based upon several personal experiences where ratings were superior but less accomplished performers were rewarded better. Politics were very pervasive across many areas. Frequently outsourced work when it could have/should have been done internally. People were better qualified and it frequently cost much more, especially when long term service contracts were inmplemented to support outsourced work. And I'm not talking about the EDS contract
