However here is the major problem with the MB culture specifically because I won't speak about all of Dell because I wasn't in all the segments. They will constantly hype you up and the raise your quotas, or let people go, or make things harder. Think I'm wrong, ask anyone about the AHOD's and then the layoffs the next day. Or how they talk about record breaking numbers then jack your quota's up. Or how half the tools are constantly being worked on, metrics are being constantly adjusted, and if you want a promotion.. don't base it off performance. I averaged over 100% for over 3 years and never once got a raise, so clearly it was political and not performance based. Way to many pointless meetings, management wasn't on the same page with other managers through the org, and most of my managers in specific felt more like cheerleader coaches, if you did good and they made money they'd leave you be and cheer you on. If you did bad it was micro management time, but when you asked for help it was like they forgot why they were there in the first place. I got more help from people on my team than managers. Also I pray for anyone who has to submit a fusion... good luck. The escalation process at Dell is the worst i've ever seen. Sometimes it will take weeks to hear back from a team that punts it off to another team, that you'll have to reach out to just to find out it'll take a week to get an answer back. So get ready to be the more underpaid person on the team (compared to TSR, AE, etc) but doing the most amount of back end work.
