Dell Technologies reviews

BUT a year or two in, you realize this is not enough to make up for the negatives. Dell does hire a lot of good talent, but they also tend to hire a lot of dead weight. And the dead weight stays around a lot longer than the good people, so you're constantly surrounded by idiots who can't do even the basic functions of their job. Dell also attracts managers who are only interested in their own career development. A self-promoting manager is going to recognize the wrong things in the wrong talent so if you're a hard worker, you'll never get ahead. They use and abuse their best talent without rewarding or appreciating them "until all that is left is a husk" one co-worker of mine put it. It's very depressing to see yourself doing all the work while the ass-kissers and self promoters get the credit and praise. And most importantly the company is doing terribly. Their own customers hate their products and complain on social media and elsewhere constantly about shoddy products and abysmal customer service. Their year-over-year profits in PC sales have been tanking for years. They have been laying people off in droves each month for more than a year now. So there is no job security. You're going to need to save a bug hunk of money from those fat paychecks to fund your inevitable unemployment. And if you do last, you'll be miserable. Budgets are so tight that the opportunity to take on new and interesting projects is practically nil at this point. You're lucky if there's even the budget to keep on doing the bare minimum. Probably you'll end up getting paid to do almost nothing for months. Sounds nice at first, but when your brain atrophies from lack of use it becomes torture- at least for a smart ambitious person.

- Indians have essentially promoted themselves and used nepotism to turn engineering into largely an Indian enterprise - My Indian manager used abusive tones, coercion, gas lighting, to his direct reports and other staff, but the culture creates an atmosphere where these people are thriving because they're getting "results" - So many coworkers existing in silent suffering, because they need the income. - Quarterly layoffs, removing older, experienced workers and rolling their responsibilities into remaining employees - Yearly shoehorning of "interns" from colleges into your team who managements uses to keep an atmosphere of "you are replaceable" at all times, and often does replace existing staff with interns they then hire. - HR is not your friend, and works with management to create a smokescreen until they are able to lay off workers who speak out against abusive managers - Forced to get a vaccination or lose my income, through coersive language from the HR and my managers - Company repeated promises to employees, then reverses and gas lights employees who speak out about the behavior, such as when Dell promised they were going to let employees be remote, then lied and said they never meant it.
