Business outlook
Pros
Location and ability to stay in Austin. The majority of the employees are based in Austin and there are a number of Directory and even VP jobs that you can attain without leaving the city. Dell also provides higher compensation than average and rewards strong performers.
Cons
The technology industry is volatile and growth is slowing. Dell is not currently the strongest in the indusrty and focuses on cost cutting to be competitive (vs product innovation, etc). I expect the numbers of managers and executives to stay flat or decrease and more jobs migrated offshore.
