Dell

The pay is decent enough, and what's left of the nerd culture is conducive to gaining friends.

Layoffs are a thing with this company, especially when they over-hire against the fiat economy. They will fire highly paid, competent people and replace them with two or three low-paid, semi-incompetent college grads. The benefits appear good on the surface but are expensive, overly complicated, and pandering. The corporate ERP, CRM, and other tools are, for the most part, extremely bad, devouring worker productivity. The corporate culture is highly political, beholden to stakeholders and failed ESG notions. The workload is nearly always an overload due to hiring/firing practices. The NPS mechanism is broken or corrupt, with the surveys asking leading questions that make it very difficult to give constructive feedback or point out inadequacies. Middle management acts as a buffer to protect leadership from worker concerns and tribulations and makes excuses for corporate failings.

Scrap the entire executive leadership and start over.
