Pros

A good place to learn about the complex systems. Flexible working hours People in the 3-6 year experience level can benifit

Cons

Pathetic managers in the software industry existing in Dell. Most of them not deserve to be in software industry. They only threatens the engineers. Only the bootlickers can survive there. You will painfully watch others are taking credit of your work repeatedly. No promotions at all. Your only attraction is the salary offered at the time of joining. After that only dream of getting a descent hike. Variable pay is another Big factor. That is introduced for not giving to employees. Every time manager say shamefully that your performance is not good as the previous cycle and because of my cosideration you are still in the team. So if you have any plan to work in IT industry, Never think of joining DELL.

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.
