Fantastic opportunity - Dell Field Sales Manager 2020 Employee Review

The culture here is honestly really good. My bosses actually listen and when I bring up an idea or a problem I feel like my opinion is valued. The company talks about being people-first and it feels like they mean it. They don't always get it right the first time but they're open to feedback and will adapt which is pretty rare. They also do a good job of recognizing your successes so you feel like your work is seen.

The biggest downside can be pay. In some areas we just aren't competitive and it's starting to cause problems. We lose really good people to other companies. It's a real morale killer for the team and it's tough to watch great colleagues leave simply because the company couldn't make it worth their while to stay. This puts more pressure on everyone else.

I've loved the people I've worked with. They have great management, great team leads, great colleagues. Everyone is very personable. Leadership focuses on personal development. There's a drive to succeed, with care and consideration not to overwork you. Also, there's been a fantastic transition to working from home. The management trusts us, and continues to allow us that freedom, even as things start opening up. The health insurance, despite being expensive ($450 a month for family), is the best I've seen EVER ($250/$500 deductible with 100% coverage in-network after).

In the USA, there is no paternity leave (outside USA, it is standard) Human Resources are Canadian, with no reps specifically for the USA. It can make support/benefits challenging at times. Due to several mergers and acquisitions, a lot of jobs are being moved overseas. When people leave Grand Rapids, they aren't replaced local. There's also been a tightening of budgets, that's been felt all around; partly due to the pandemic, partly due to mergers, acquisitions, and changing owners.
