    Kyocera Furloughs

    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?

    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.

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

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