'It'saveryspecialenvironment,'shesays,'PeopledescribeXeroxasafamilyandIwasamazedatthenumberofpeoplewhohaveworkedhereforsolong.
'施乐公司的工作环境多么令人愉快!
客服主管金姆·莫罗尼谈到她的雇主时赞不绝口.
"这里的工作环境别具特色,"她说,"人们把施乐公司比作一个大家庭,而我惊讶地看到施乐公司拥有如此众多的老员工".
It'stemptingtotakeMoloney'scommentswithapinchofsalt,especiallyconsideringthatwhenyou'vebeenworkingsomewhereforonlytwoyears,asshehasatXerox,everyoneseemsoldandestablished.
Butthere'struthbehindherenthusiasm.
tempting本意是"诱人的",词组"It'stemptingto"在这里表示人们的普遍倾向性,意思是"人们倾向于……".
考虑到莫罗尼在施乐公司工作仅仅两年,她的话很可能会让人将信将疑,对任何在一个地方只工作过两年的人来说,任何人看起来都是资深的老员工.
然而她对公司的热情赞扬是有事实根据的.

'以集团人力资源部经理卡罗·帕默为例来说吧.
1978年她以临时员工的身份加入施乐公司,如今担任人力资源部经理的职务已达7年之久了.
"这几年来施乐公司一直对我很好,"她说,ithassupportedmethroughqualifications"公司支持我获取了各种资格证书……去年我还参加了副总经理岗位培训课程HumanresourcesistakenseriouslyatXerox,Palmersays,andthecompanyhasapolicyofpromotingfromwithin(whichwouldexplainMoloney'samazementathercolleagues'longevity).
ThecompanytakesononlyfifteentotwentygraduateseachyearandMoloneywaspartofanintakewhojoinedhavingalreadyacquiredacoupleofyears'workexperience.
帕默说,施乐集团重视人力资源,公司的一项政策就是从内部提拔员工(这正是莫罗尼惊讶地看到那么多工作多年的同事的原因).
公司每年只招收15--20名毕业生,而莫罗尼当年是公司从外部招募的员工之一,在此之前她有过几年的工作经验.
ShestartedasaprojectmanagerforXeroxGlobalServicesbeforemovingintosales.

一开始莫罗尼是施乐全球服务部的项目经理,后来进了销售部门.
如今她的责任是"发展和维持客户关系".

`We'vejustgotanewproviderinthecanteenand…wehavebrainstormingroomsandbreakoutareas.
'莫罗尼的公司总部位于伦敦西部的欧克斯桥镇.
"就工作环境来说那真是无可挑剔.
"她说,"餐厅最近请来了一位新厨师·一我们还设有专门集思广益的会议室和攻克难题的区域".

`I'mahot-desker,whichisgoodbecauseyougettositwithdifferentpeopleinthehot-deskareas.

'莫罗尼的主要工作是拜访客户,因此她在总部没有固定的办公桌.
"我使用的是轮用办公桌,这对工作有利,因为在轮用办公桌区域,我经常碰到不同的同事.
而且你有一个可以存放物品的地方.

帕默说,公司总部拥有员工数1,200一1,500人,在英国还有四个主要分支机构.
公司包括四个部门:销售和市场营销部、环球服务部(最大的部门)、市场开发部、研发与生产部.
其经营性质意味着在公司里能获得各种不同的机会,可以当售后服务工程师,可以当销售员,还可以当顾问.

'其他福利还包括一个按最终薪水给付的养老金制度和各种折扣制度.
嘉奖制度则颇有创意而且相当不错.
"所有的经理每年都制定一个嘉奖员工的预算.
"帕默说:"奖励的形式可能是两人共享的一餐饭,也可能是一瓶葡萄酒.
奖励的价值可能会达到1o00英镑.
"首先是认可,认可后面则是金钱奖励做后盾.

'然而莫罗尼却喜欢各种非现金形式的奖赏.
"施乐公司关照所有的员工,同时对付出额外劳动的人们给予认可.
"她说:"施乐提供'终身难忘'的旅游奖励,最近我就刚刚为我的团队组织了一次航海旅行.
"Theideaofworkingabroadwiththecompanyappealstoher,andshesaysthathercareergoalistobepartoftheseniormanagementteam.

到施乐的海外公司工作是莫罗尼梦寐以求的事,她说她的职业生涯目标是成为高级管理层的一员.
看起来,这又将是一位长期为施乐公司鼎力效劳的员工了!
