Pros

In comparison with other companies in Bratislava/Slovakia definitely best compensation and benefits.

Cons

1. One of the largest (if not largest) decentralized organizational structure with probably the highest percentage of managers and directors on regular employees. 2. Large obsession with details (no wonder with so many managers), while loosing the top overview of "what's going on" 3. Obsession with "grades" - the moment you enter Dell in Bratislava there is a solid guarantee you will hear the topic "grades" every simple day! - at your working place, in corridor, canteen or even in the lift. 4. Immatured Slovak managerial staff - except of few (actually very few) who joined Dell in Bratislava as "already made" managers 5. "Academic" environment - there are some technically very good and knowledgeable employees, but not everyone with ACCA certificate can really apply that hardly acquired knowledge when solving the real problems (sad) 6. Last cons - especially in B'lava - is for career opportunities, not because there are none, on the contrary, but because transparent and fair hiring is sometimes sacrificed to "friendly networking". At this moment I would NOT recommend Dell as the employer due to upcoming privatization and especially what this will bring. Lots of cleaning processes is expected - though there is a kind of embargo on the details (logically). I will give it a time - 1-2 years.

Pros

At this point? None honestly.

Cons

They did a complete 180 since I got hired. Came in as remote during COVID and now that they forced most people back to the office, they made us 3rd class citizens in the company. Can't get a raise, a promotion, any spiffs or even the same contests that the people in the office do. This company does not keep promises and has been constantly doing workforce reductions ever year like clockwork for 4 years now. The COO Jeff Clarke is an absolute clown as well, you have to go into the office dressed as business casual, but this guy goes to One Dell World in undersized lame t-shirts every year. Hypocrisy at all levels of this company. Just looking for a good opportunity and I am out, after talking to my co workers I feel like 70-80% feel the same. The tools also suck and are down half the time as well.
