- Once Rochester's second-largest employer, the company had a catastrophic downfall around 1999-2000, resulting in the loss of jobs, stock values, and a near-bankruptcy status. Xerox was able to stabilize in the following decade, thanks to CEO Anne Mulcahy. On May 21, 2009, it was announced that Ursula Burns would succeed Anne Mulcahy as CEO of Xerox and in September 2009 Xerox announced it would acquire Affiliated Computer Services which would more than double its world size. In January 2016, Xerox announced the company would be splitting, later that year it was announced that Ursula Burns would no longer be the CEO following the split of the company, the new Xerox CEO would be Jeff Jacobson, and that the two companies would be Xerox and Conduent. Throughout this period they have continued to layoff Rochester area employees in the last two decades, further diminishing their presence in the region.	+ Once Rochester's second-largest employer, the company had a catastrophic downfall around 1999-2000, resulting in the loss of jobs, stock values, and a near-bankruptcy status.

- Xerox is a large local employer, designing and manufacturing copiers, printers, and "Multi-Function Devices." Once Rochester's second-largest employer, the company had a catastrophic downfall around 1999-2000, resulting in the loss of jobs, stock values, and a near-bankruptcy status (and in the library, the staff dropped from about 60 to 7 staff members). Xerox is in the process of making their comeback, thanks largely to new CEO Anne Mulcahy and their focus on developing color printing. And their new machine is a beast: an entire on-demand "digital production press." It costs about $500,000, and they have sold 500 so far. There's a team on hand who monitors each machine 24 hours a day, and will fly out to inspect any machine that exhibits even the slightest tendency to malfunction.	+ Xerox is a large local employer, designing and manufacturing copiers, printers, and "Multi-Function Devices." In 1906, the ["Haloid"] Company was formed in Rochester, manufacturing and selling photographic paper. In 1938, ["Chester Carlson"] made the first xerographic image in his lab, I believe it says "10-22-38 ASTORIA." In 1942, Carlson received a U.S. Patent for his process, and in 1947, Haloid acquired the rights to it, via Joseph C. Wilson, a ["University of Rochester"] alumnus. Haloid then became "Xerox" in honor of its newly acquired process and in 1959 released the Xerox 914, the first actually-useful office copier. Subsequent years brought acquisitions, mergers, patent and marketing rights to Central and South America, and the Palo Alto Research Center.

Xerox was also noted for its 100 percent score on the Human Rights Campaign Foundation's 2005 Corporate Equality Index. The index rates major U.S. corporations treatment of LGBT employees. Xerox has received a 100 percent ranking each year since the indexs inception in 2002."'' - -	+ There are currently 139,000 Xerox employees worldwide.
