Dell is not American any more

Business Outlook

Pros

Dell provides flexible work hours Dell provides good benefits

Cons

Dell relies heavily on outsourcing jobs in USA to other countries like India. Both tech and management jobs in USA are outsourced to India. They lay-off US employees and hire H1 visa employees. If you are an employee working in US you will have to get adjusted to a remote Indian manager dictating your career at Dell There is always lots of 'us' and 'them' in any team at Dell and does not use any collaboration mechanisms to function as Global team Agile practices are namesake and not updated with the latest technology stack. Still uses huge monolithic Applications and mainframe. Most of the Managers in India are not qualified for the job and loyalty plays the key role than performance to get promoted. This is a red flag for many aspiring US tech job seekers at Dell. Dell has scaled up its assets to the likes of Amazon, Microsoft, Google with the merger of EMC but not focused like their competitors in terms of driving company to position in future technology marketplace. Dell has mediocre pay
