Pros

Good emphasis on work/life balance.

Cons

Extremely restrictive hiring practices. Unfair bonus distribution - first company I've ever worked at where bonuses are not prorated for employees past their probationary period. I was at PSGS for ten months in 2009, and while co-workers who were there on Jan 1. 2009 got a full bonus for the year, I got nothing, simply because I wasn't hired until February 2009 - this, despite an "Excellent" review and many thanks and kudos from the client. Detached management - the only time I ever hear from my "Technical Area Manager" at Perot is when some mandatory training needs completion or when the manager is required to have a face-to-face with me (as with the "ooops, no bonus" discussion). Still, my manager has never responded to several requests for a F2F meeting to discuss my PSGS performance evaluation, which did not match the client's evaluation. The acquisition by Dell seems to have turned the PSGS organization into a mess of hard-to-find benefits information and benefits that are slightly more restrictive and more expensive than earlier PSGS offerings - to get my previous pricing on prescription drugs, I must now mail-order them, creating problems for me and my doctor.

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.
