Pros

Flexible hours, average pay, decent benefits.

Cons

There is nothing sexy or cool about working at Dell. Its technology is not innovative or changing the data infrastructure landscape in any way. Do you really want to work for a company whose flagship product launch every five years is just a product that's faster than the old one?

Dell saw the writing on the wall with cloud and had to release project APEX, which is still on-prem hardware at the end of the day.

The internal Dell tools are absolutely abysmal to use and make the job such a headache for us and the customers. People have been complaining about this for years, and it seems the tools only get worse.

You'll join a customer call and have one customer and 10 Dell people on from all the different teams. It's ridiculous.

Advice to Management

Honestly, Dell could use more layoffs. The company had two big layoffs during COVID, and there are still tons of redundant teams that provide no value.
