Pros

The pay ks competitive but its becoming less and less relevant

Cons

As the Dell machine takes huge bites out of the EMC culture, bonuses have been cut from once a quarter to once a year and are being decreased by half. Pay raises are negligible (2%) and now we can't carry over personal or vacation days. Perks for people that travel are being erased to the point of Architects are bailing at an alarming rate. Health benefits are being cut as well this year. I assume if you're used to Mr Dells heavy handedness you're fine but anyone who are legacy EMC are being screwed.

Pros

Great people! Team members/coworkers are fantastic

Cons

It’s still kind of an old school culture mindset. They move slower and have red tape

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.
