Kyocera Furloughs

[Ctl-Alt-Del]

Kyocera Furloughed about 1/3 of their US employees from both HQ and their direct branches, service seems to have been hit hard. Anyone hearing anything from other manufacturers?

Re: Kyocera Furloughs

Kyocera has very few branches or direct employees. Like you said, I'd be curious about Konica or Ricoh which has a ton of techs.

Yes Ricoh too in The UK.

However i've seen my business start to pick up again.

I reported this last week and they also got a salary reduction 15% for the remain employees,
sounds like they are in big trouble.

Re: any companies laying off ?

My guy that works in California, Kyocera said they just announce
30% layoff and everyone else will have a 15% pay reduction.

429 furloughs is more than very few. Between corporate and direct operations there are over 1300 employees and all are affected by this.
