Dell Technologies reviews

I’ve been with Dell for 6 years, and while there are some positive aspects, several issues significantly impact the employee experience. The management lacks technical expertise, often leading to chaotic decision-making and unnecessary pressure on teams. Technical architects’ insights are frequently disregarded, which hinders project quality and innovation. Work-life balance is poor due to unrealistic expectations and inefficient processes. Additionally, the compensation is below market standards for a high-cost city like Bengaluru, making it challenging to feel valued. I hope the leadership addresses these concerns to improve the work environment.

Engineering is completely disorganized right now. There have been so many layoffs and reorgs the past 2 years that barely anyone knows who they're working for or managing. I had 3 different managers the last 1.5 years i was at dell. Its not uncommon now for managers to have 25+ direct reports, many of whom they've never met, often working on a product they've never touched. As an example the first 1 on 1 I had with the last manager was when i was informed i was being laid off.
