Pros

I joined Dell with great hope of leading technical products and still having a work life balance.

Cons

Everything went for a toss in no time. I could see chaos within a few weeks of joining. I realized a lot of this chaos was because of poor leadership (I worked in 4 different teams in my tenure at Dell) and this was a consistent observation. The company has many leaders or so-called people creating strategy and fewer people actually working. These so-called strategists do not provide any clarity on strategy, priorities or business goals. They do not understand any processes or have a sense of urgency. They do not. provide growth opportunities. 3 out of 4 of my managers, just attended my 1:1 asking what is happening and nothing after that. No career guidance, no promotion, no discussion around products or anything that is happening around.

Pros

The people are the best part of this job. I have met so many amazing people in this role. Even some I would consider life long friends. I think the experience gained from this job has also been useful for any sales role you may need for any future endeavors in sales or the tech industry.

Cons

Upper management has made many changes to the compensation and the metrics which has for sure effected employee satisfaction. Turnover rate is insane as there’s a new hire class literally every month. Dell itself is running out of room and they are not making any new teams for the new hire classes which has left more tenured reps in a vulnerable position.
