Pros

Some of the co-workers are great and very passionate about helping customers. Pay plan is above average but benefit costs keep rising.

Cons

How much is enough? Michael Dell's ego is out of control. Maybe he's trying to prove something since Apple crushed him in the desktop/laptop market and mobile device market. No question that he's smart and charismatic, but he's missed badly on some things. His leadership team tries to brush those under the rug and only acknowledge the positive acquisitions or product launches.Not really the emperor has no clothes, more like the emperor is badly dressed and no one dares tell him. Lots of senior level people left and they hired inexperienced people at much lower pay rates. It went poorly and they started hiring some of those senior people back. Morale is terrible among most inside sales and sales support teams. Favoritism is rampant.

Pros

The people are the best part of this job. I have met so many amazing people in this role. Even some I would consider life long friends. I think the experience gained from this job has also been useful for any sales role you may need for any future endeavors in sales or the tech industry.

Cons

Upper management has made many changes to the compensation and the metrics which has for sure effected employee satisfaction. Turnover rate is insane as there’s a new hire class literally every month. Dell itself is running out of room and they are not making any new teams for the new hire classes which has left more tenured reps in a vulnerable position.
