Pros

Big company, so there's a lot of opportunity for lateral movement. There is also an opportunity to immerse oneself in different Technologies because Dell's technology portfolio is so wide. I was always a remote employee, so that was nice. And before the pandemic, Dell was reasonable and generous with reimbursement for work- related expenses.

Cons

There is much, TOO MUCH churn!! One is constantly in fear of losing one's job. I had to jump to three different groups to avoid being laid off, but alas, I was laid off in January. Ridiculous. Part of it is the never-ending convergence process after the acquisition of EMC. And talk about a clash of cultures! Wow! The other reason is sheer corporate greed. And all companies are responsible for that. Dell touts all its remarkable earnings and increases in revenue YoY, yet they keep engaging in mass layoffs. Greed! They are trying to keep up with other greedy companies thati are maximizing profit margins artificially by reducing labor costs. After the pandemic Dell got unreasonable amd petty about customer-related travel.

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.
