Pros

I'm part of DELL EMC, DPD.

  • Work-life balance
  • Brand name
  • WFH benefits
  • Less work pressure
Cons
  • Pathetic management.

  • Very poor office facilities; the cafeteria does not have many options to eat. The pantry is also not managed well.

  • Some employees don't want to come out of their comfort zone and push new hires to take up challenges.

  • Leadership is not good. They need to focus on each individual instead of relying on legacy employees.

  • Less opportunities to learn, working in old projects and enhancements.

  • No hike or very less hike.

  • Promotion is a myth in this organization. Only those who butter directors will get promoted.

To get promotion, you have to resign. Management will come forward to offer you a promotion to hold you back.

  • Your work is not recognized.

  • Lots of internal politics and ego between teams.

  • Hardly any individual works here for company growth; it seems everyone just wants to make their job safe.

I have personally experienced my colleague telling me that you should not explain others about the internal design of your code; it makes them learn it. This means there is a replacement for you; they can come and fill your shoes.

So, basically, people here have settled like this for many years, like a frog inside a well.

Advice to Management

Take feedback from each and every individual. Do not over-depend on one employee for all of your projects.

Empower employees.

Managers need to be trained well to hear their reportees' voices.

Recognize the contribution of every individual.
