Pros

Excellent compensation for entry-level. Fixed salary with no prior sales experience required and decent benefits factored in, with lots of extra Personal Wellness Time that is not PTO. Lots of little surprises throughout the week, weekly paid lunches, good office setting, supportive development structure. Potential for quick advancement. WFH friday and monday is nice.

Cons

There is a clear desire to micromanage by upper management, through emphasis on metrics that bear no indication to how well someone actually performs as a salesperson. In addition, there is clear favoritism/outright fudging of numbers and cheating that almost everyone participates in to meet their assigned metrics. Very low lead count with many being terrible and outdated leads. Other red flags include Dell being so pro-remote only to take that away this year even though sales peaked in COVID, required work outings, and more that I'm sure I'm missing. I was told I'd be promoted in 6-9 months by a recruiter; it's been 10.

Pros

The people are the best part of this job. I have met so many amazing people in this role. Even some I would consider life long friends. I think the experience gained from this job has also been useful for any sales role you may need for any future endeavors in sales or the tech industry.

Cons

Upper management has made many changes to the compensation and the metrics which has for sure effected employee satisfaction. Turnover rate is insane as there’s a new hire class literally every month. Dell itself is running out of room and they are not making any new teams for the new hire classes which has left more tenured reps in a vulnerable position.
