Apply for anything but a SOC analyst. Not HIT,SA, or DM.

Pros

The individual teams at Dell SecureWorks are great to be on and great overall group of people. Working here can be very fun and your peers are the best thing about the company.

Cons

Issues with Management . You will find that many managers are lazy and don't push for your pay or support you. Dell SecureWorks pays you based on what other MSS centers pay their employees but that data is old and doesn't actually reflect the market. SOC Managers have a bad reputation inside the Secureworks division for not pushing better pay for their current employees. Working in the SOC is also uncomfortable. The SOC is a closed off part of the office and the smell is bad and you share desks/keyboards with people who have bad hygiene.

Great Job, Awful Pay

Pros

Good learning environment. Excellent opportunities.

Cons

Pay sucks and they lie to the recruiting agencies. I was promised 100K when I interviewed. I have a wife and kids and I was counting on that salary when I converted. Now they want to pay me 70000 instead. This sucks. Now I am stuck here because I can't quit before I am converted into permanent.

Work from home, increasing work pressure from Agile SCRUM

Anonymous employee

Pros

Work from home every day. Keep up to date with technology if in the right group and assigned the right tasks

Cons

- Too much pressure from Agile SCRUM - Complicated applications higly driven by configurations and homw-grown APIs - Not easy to get info on systems. - They have made bonus specific to individual performance instead of common to the business unit. - So getting less attractive to be here. - Make too much out of the position title regarding expectations.
