Pros

The benefits are good and the people (non-leadership) are hard workers and good people

Cons

Leadership will throw you under the bus publicly and regularly. They often state (and this is direct quote from multiple directors) “you should feel privileged to work 60+ hours a week for Dell”. The favoritism displayed among “lifers” creates a toxic environment, one where the favorites are allowed to berate openly and publicly anyone who disagrees with them. Finally, leaders are expected to and regularly attend every meeting with their employees and openly correct them in front of their peers. All of this creates a culture where employees fear speaking up or providing suggestions for improvement.

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.
