Pros

The pay is mid-range. Healthcare and other benefits are top-notch and stable.

Work is easy compared to other big tech. No stock or any traditional big tech benefits unless you're VP+.

Cons

Hypocritical leadership, blind to how their decisions impact employees.

Full reversal on remote work and extremely toxic personnel practices.

Dell promotes and retains based on tenure, not performance.

Internal moves are often denied, and promotions may be blocked by indirect leadership.

Raises are rare and often track behind inflation.

New policy actively punishes remote workers.

If your pay and benefits get too inflated, you get laid off.

Advice to Management

Without modernizing your business practices, you will not be able to attract or retain top talent. Eventually, you will fall mercy to the competition. No company is too big to fail.

Either become agile, remote-friendly, and develop the ability to create and ship software, or be happy getting passed by everyone else.
