Dell

For medium-experienced employees, it's a great place to work. You can learn new technologies, new processes, etc. The salary is almost equal to that of the same players in IT.

The main concern is that the majority of engineering managers are not capable of handling their teams and projects properly.

Major concerns and suggestions coming from the team (TellDell survey, which is hosted once every year) are kind of a fooling process; there won't be any action taken based on the survey. Top-level management is only worried about the quarterly results, but there are no additional benefits given to the people who really did a good job.

Recognition and rewards are based on engineering talent and performance. Most managers practice a round-table approach.

Benefits should be given to the right people based on the work they contributed to the success of the project, not on seniority.
