Dell Technologies reviews

Seniority and experience means nothing here anymore as it is now owned and operated by India. Your past achievements at the company mean nothing to anyone and you WILL be treated like a child. If you like working 60-90 hours a week then this is the place for you. The 10, 13, 18 years of service and the millions you’ve personally saved with your direct efforts alone means nothing to anyone and you should not expect recognition or monetary compensation as a result. Your manager is 99% likely to be in India now and there will be little to no communication with that person. Your Indian “co-workers” (oxymoron) will: a. Take credit for your work. b. Bad mouth and make false claims against you to management throughout the year to ensure their promotion/raise over you. c. Use titles they haven’t earned like “senior” and “team lead”. d. Be ignorant of basic software concepts and incapable of delegating work appropriately. e. Eventually take your job through offshoring. If you enjoy back handed comments, people stabbing you in the face and in the back at the same time, then this is the place for you. If you enjoy devoting yourself for 13+ years to a company only to have them slap you in the face with false claims so that they can legally fire you and move your job to India then this is the place for you. To top off the experience you’re guaranteed to be fired or downsized by an Indian you’ve never met working in the US under HR.

25% is bad, and sadly a lot of leadership is in that bucket. Lots of childish politics and bureaucracy. Absolutely insane how top-heavy this org is - maybe 10 total people actually make decisions in an org of over 100k. Despite doing interesting work, most things feel like they die in a dark closet no matter how compelling the business case is… a big part of that comes from the very top. Having a 40 year old tech company is an incredible achievement, but “tried and true” smothers innovation in the age of AI. Finally… have to say it, but the RTO thing is worse than the headlines. Dell has invested literally nothing in offices yet expect everyone to be there. None of the pre-pandemic amenities like decent food, fitness facilities, etc were brought back to make the offices inviting places. It’s one thing to ask people to come back to the office - it’s another to ask them to spend 2,000 hours a year in a disgusting and depressing dungeon. IMO it shows just how little Michael and Jeff care about their employees.
