Pros

The paycheck was adequate for the work performed and the hours expected were pretty much set in stone. Overtime was not a requirement. In fact, it was strictly forbidden.

Cons

It seemed to me that the major problem was bad management resulting in large problems, and then the yelling, panic, and hyper-focus on cutting costs would make everyone forget that the problem was the bad management and not the employees execution. I can't tell you how many times our job was threatened if we didn't help management cut costs that never should have been there in the first place. Constant fear of unemployment ruled.

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.
