Business Outlook

Pros

Hard working env't. VERY intelligent people. Opportunity for large turnaround. Although challenged over the last few years, Dell has a very strong balance sheet and the potential to transition to be a key Enterprise IT provider that can leverage its brand and expand its presence Globally. Many fault Dell for being too US-centric (ie vs IBM or HP). However, this limited channel provides great opportunities abroad. _

Cons

Tough "sink / swim" culture. Somewhat reactive (ie transactional) selling process (although changing) - which can impact culture and expectations. Difficult to gain Executive experience as slowing economy / growth limits upward mobility.

Business Outlook

Pros

Dell obviously has great name recognition as a Fortune 500 company. However, the brand is on the decline. It will be interesting to see if management can right the ship. Dell is not a great place for engineering, especially going forward. Most of the engineering work is being outsourced. Also, the company is not great at recognizing engineering talent. This is not surprising because it is really not an engineering company; it is an operations company.

Cons

Dell is not great at recognizing talent. Maybe this is true of all big companies. Benefits are being slashed as the company suffers financially.
