Pros

Dell pays a competitive salary and generally supports work/ life balance. If one of a chosen few, you would be given high visibility roles which would help you career grow. Dell generally supports flexible working hours if the business needs permit. Salary is great when compared austin cost of living.

Cons

Lack of career growth opportunities as Engineering development work is sent off-shore. Doing presentations to senior management is valued more than doing innovative work in the lab. Dell is a marketing company and not an Engineering company. It is more interested in selling commodities cheaply, than into putting money into R&D and innovation.

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.
