Pros

Having remote work, benefits before covid-19, overall friendly workplace.

Cons

Covid-19 has really shown the true colors of this company, Dell has canceled all benefits due to the pandemic to "preserve cash." This has to be one of the dumbest statements I have ever heard after a company goes through 2 quarters of the year with absolutely insane profits, better than ever before. Is the company going to look into changing things like at least 401K matching back, no, nothing is being looked into, just a heartfelt email thanking its employees for making them a ton of money. It might look like the executives are good giving up their salary, but that doesn't even begin to breathe on the money they are actually making in stock options ect. So they are hoarding this money in fear of the recession. News flash, you hoard money, your 150+ thousand employees are no longer spending as much, and the places they went to don't have as much money so they stop spending, and everyone stops spending, places closes and the economy crashes. So thank you Dell for contributing to the economic recession amid making billions in profit so far this year.

Pros

At this point? None honestly.

Cons

They did a complete 180 since I got hired. Came in as remote during COVID and now that they forced most people back to the office, they made us 3rd class citizens in the company. Can't get a raise, a promotion, any spiffs or even the same contests that the people in the office do. This company does not keep promises and has been constantly doing workforce reductions ever year like clockwork for 4 years now. The COO Jeff Clarke is an absolute clown as well, you have to go into the office dressed as business casual, but this guy goes to One Dell World in undersized lame t-shirts every year. Hypocrisy at all levels of this company. Just looking for a good opportunity and I am out, after talking to my co workers I feel like 70-80% feel the same. The tools also suck and are down half the time as well.
