Pros

None I could think of

Cons

I’ve been with Dell for 6 years, and while there are some positive aspects, several issues significantly impact the employee experience. The management lacks technical expertise, often leading to chaotic decision-making and unnecessary pressure on teams. Technical architects’ insights are frequently disregarded, which hinders project quality and innovation. Work-life balance is poor due to unrealistic expectations and inefficient processes. Additionally, the compensation is below market standards for a high-cost city like Bengaluru, making it challenging to feel valued. I hope the leadership addresses these concerns to improve the work environment.

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.
