Pros

The benefits were great. A full week off for Christmas, most holidays observed, and an annual stipend for exercise equipment and activities.

Cons

The leadership team cannot be trusted. They lied about working from home being "here to stay". Then they lied about the hybrid model only being 3 days a week. There are also layoffs literally every month. I used to have nightmares about being laid off during the worst IT market ever.

Pros

Good salary, good managers, good benefits and good people.

Cons

All the changes are designed to force people out. RTO, cost cutting, not acting on any Tell Dell (yearly employee survey) results, no corporate travel, no team events, no company SWAG, no promotions (even for RTO employees, there's nothing), no budget to build features for products so we are just keeping the lights on in most cases and losing to competitors because of it, constant fear of being laid off is creating a toxic environment. None of this matters though because Dell isn't hiring for the foreseeable future. You either deal with it or leave. If you leave you will make less money and take forever to find a job and Dell knows it so everyone is just dealing with it.

Pros

-Pretty good salary -Good work life balance until the 5 day RTO mandate -Some good pockets across the organization with good work life balance and culture -Some good leaders, but most teams experience frequent leadership changes without notice

Cons

-5 day RTO suddenly mandated (changed their tune after a previous emphasis on flexibility with under a week of notice, causing parents to scramble). Likely goal is to cause attrition without paying severance. -Employees generally treated with contempt -Poor office perks (no free coffee, bad and expensive cafeteria options) -Frequent reorgs so most people work in roles they never applied for or wanted, with little opportunity for internal movement -Poor job security and morale (sudden layoffs every month, no one is safe and everyone fears layoff at any time) -Generally hostile working environment where toxicity runs rampant. Old-school leaders with outdated mindsets run this company -Terrible tools, technology, and processes to enable employee work and communication. Causes churn, inefficiency, and isolation where teams work ineffectively in silos. -Intense red tape makes it hard to actually innovate or improve things, even when the fixes are simple and obvious.
