Pros

Name recognition, time off, remote work, great coworkers

Cons

Company very focused on bottom line and not paying their sales people competitively. Making it very difficult to understand a comp plan, unattainable comp plans based off of zero historicals, very shady practices, not a sales driven company, but accountant driven, constantly changing the GTM, low moral, promotions are given based on who you know, not talent and accomplishments

A good stepping stone, maybe

Pros

Plenty of online learning resources available. Name recognition of company. Salary is on par with other large enterprises. Alleged “self development time”, but I suspect people rarely have that time due to intense workload.

Cons

Dell is fundamentally not a software company. This is reflected in how it handles software projects: non-technical business representatives call the shots and Product Management has no power. This translates to nonsensical, shifting requirements and crazy workloads for the entire team. Eventually the good engineering talent leaves. On my project, there’s no real concern for data integrity, quality control, documentation, or development processes in general. It’s all a dance to make it look like work is progressing quickly while the tech debt mountain grows larger. Dell also wants to offshore 70% of their engineering staff overseas, which will only add more chaos.
