Pros

You get to learn a whole lot in a short amount of time. When you get to add value, you get to expand your job scope to parley they next job. If you are underqualified, you get overpaid

Cons

If you are overqualified, you won't get promoted easily. They work you pretty hard most of the time, 150% of effort is not enough. Constantly putting out management created fires.

Pros

The benefits are good overall. PTO is generous and the culture is pretty good depending on your department. Dell has a lot of vendors it partners with that offer a lot of incentives. They put on many events which can break up the monotony after returning to office 5 days a week.

Cons

Commission payouts have significantly decreased since I started. They seem to change the commission structure every quarter which is frustrating. Quotas are inflated due to price increases across the industry. They continue to implement new KPIs which must be met in order to get promoted. So you're essentially having to constantly do more work for less pay.
