Pros

Dell has pretty good pay for Austin and when you take into account benefits its tough to beat. Worklife balance is nice, the people are friendly. The newest

Cons

Its not very inspiring place to work. I have an idea is a phrase sure to fall on deaf ears. The most important thing to learn is how to do things at Dell. Meetings, meetings, meetings consist of information exchanges- And the smallest things can take eons. Theres a vague conception that decisions should be based on data but more often than not actions and success are judged on the capricious whims of executives that you rarely see but who's names loom large. The place is middle heavy, very silo'd and the territory grabs are the greatest impetus to break the organizational inertia. Everyone is "swamped" and works hard right til 5 but nothing gets done.

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.
