Pros

None I could think of.

Cons

I’ve been with Dell for 6 years, and while there are some positive aspects, several issues significantly impact the employee experience.

The management lacks technical expertise, often leading to chaotic decision-making and unnecessary pressure on teams. Technical architects’ insights are frequently disregarded, which hinders project quality and innovation.

Work-life balance is poor due to unrealistic expectations and inefficient processes. Additionally, the compensation is below market standards for a high-cost city like Bengaluru, making it challenging to feel valued.

I hope the leadership addresses these concerns to improve the work environment.

Advice to Management

Embrace technical expertise, respect architects, prioritize work-life balance, and improve compensation.
