Pros

1. Good R&R 2. Sales commissions and accelerators.

Cons

1. 5 Days RTO 2. Never ending layoffs. 3. Too much reliance on AI where all Dell is doing is selling GPU servers. 4. Bad Local Management and Global Leadership. 5. They have implemented windfall so it's possible that sales rep may not get paid on the deal if it gets classified as windfall. 6. Managers say things like they have done stack ranking of team members and have finalized the list of team members who will be laid off in next round of layoffs in team meetings. 7. There is also a possibility that if a Sales Rep overachieves, leadership may cap the payout with a reasoning that the quota was wrongly set and then Sales Rep may just keep fighting with management to get his commissions paid. 8. Bad decisions on product and services and they tend to shoot their foot. 9. They have mastered the art of taking U turns on everything. 10. None of the employees I know plan on staying with Dell if they find another job, therefore everyone is looking out and already mentally signed out of Dell.

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.
