Pros

Competitive environment where you can try to stop the Dell train wreck from happening in any department you choose. Great sign-on bonuses for executives and lucrative packages for those involuntarily separated.

Cons

Since the rating system is gone, the process of evaluation is more subjective than ever. The strategy is to cut OPEX and CAPEX in hopes of profitability. The end-goal is to pay off Michael's debts, cut loose from Silver Lake, and then take the company public again. Turning over to a new CEO at that time, Michael hopes to retire and do book tours, consult on Fox News, etc.

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.
