Pros

Dell has created an equitable and efficient environment where we work as a single global team delivering the right solutions. Dell leveraged the challenges of the pandemic to create a top of the line virtual working model that enhanced productivity while fostering creative work-life balance for its employees.

Cons

Dell has disappointingly to follow instead of lead with its return-to-hybrid initiative to force workers back into the office. Instead of leveraging its efficient virtual work model to create an attractive place to work for current and new talent, it has instead opted to fall in line with a practice that makes little sense in the new world. A company where work relationships transcend physical location does not benefit from trying to force a face-to-face culture.

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.
