Pros

The compensation package was very satisfying. The cafe had good food. There are very cool and talented people working there. The ones not trying to stab you in the back, that is.

Cons

Invisible management, office politics like I've never seen before, and the only way I knew I was fired was that my badge didn't work anymore. The jockeying for position to be seen by management when they do show their faces is ridiculous. I felt like I was in high school again. I've never EVER seen so many people try and throw co-workers under the bus in my life. it was almost a sport to them.

Pros

Huge company with opportunities to grow and work with other teams

Cons

The multiple time zones and countries meant a lot of night or early morning calls. Also layoffs were and are pretty regular.

Pros

Looks good on a resume. Benefits.

Cons

Within two years of working for Dell Small Business, they've cut our commission rate at least five times, cut our base salary by over $10,000, had all sellers RTO, and blocked any moves within the company outside of SMB, all while increasing KPIs. Meaning more work and less incentive. The managers have almost no pull and are used as messengers to deliver bad news every couple of months. I would never, in good faith, recommend that any of my friends or family work in this department.
