Pros

Good pay and benefits, generally flexible work schedules, mostly skilled and sharp employees.

Cons

Extremely poor executive strategy-making and execution in the PC business unit. They won't commit to a plan and see it through, allowing themselves to be overly influenced by Microsoft and ODM partners in Asia. Their degree of influence and negotiating strength with ODMs is weak, given Dell's ranking in worldwide PC sales. Generally ineffective management at all levels.
