Pros

There are a wide range of jobs available at Dell and most managers provide employees with the flexibility to try new things. Moving up can be difficult but Dell is a pretty good place to gain broad experience. Most employees stay at Dell (in spite of the downsides) because Austin is a great city.

Cons

Incompetent and unethical senior management and board of directors. Michael's last name is on the building and he runs the company like a dictatorship. He tells his "leaders" what to do, they tell their managers what to do, and so on. There is zero tolerance for anyone to question or challenge anything Michael wants to do. See the long list of departed executives who have tried to suggest improving the company. This culture impacts the entire company -- if you are not a "yes man" you will be miserable working at Dell. I've never met an employee who wants to stay at Dell for the long run.

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.
