Pros

Only compensation is the good part.

Cons

Management (managers/leads) rule the way you work and make life hell for you. They want you to work on weekends and stretch to 12/13 hours a day.

They call it SCRUM, but they don't follow one.

All the developers will be in the line of fire every day in SCRUM.

There is no one to listen to your concerns or questions. You play slaves to the wits and wishes of the managers.

You don't get any flexibility under the Dell culture. No work from home/no laptops, etc. You are forced to stretch from home using TeamViewer Personal Edition, which is against ethics.

They call it a product, but follow a complete services culture. If you are on sick leave or half-day leave, the manager will ask 50 questions...

All the team developers are under immense pressure, and there are no learning tasks.

Advice to Management

Try to care for the developers instead of higher management.
