I saw a message here about layoffs. It's not true. Dell Radio Team is hiring big time and it's a very good environment to be at. Anyhow, no layoffs and big growth.
New hires - disoriented
Perhaps I would have helped the new young employee here, if only I wasn't so overwhelmed. From his example, it's become clear to me why the company is now losing its new hires very quickly. I have been working here for many years and I would say... — read more
Burnout and high turnover
Is Dell doing anything to prevent employees from getting completely burnt out and in turn preventing some of the top talent from walking away? Too many people are choosing to look for greener pastures and with good reason. It'd be nice to see that... — read more
Everyone pretends they don't care
Working at Dell has become miserable, but there’s no need to pretend that you can’t wait to get laid off. Why is everyone acting like they don't care about their job here? I will stop caring about my job here only when I find a new job. Until then... — read more

I try not to worry
There is certainly no point in worrying ahead of time. But even if there is some truth in rumors about cuts, then maybe it would be better to have cuts happen sooner than later, while the market is still in good shape? Competitors certainly offer... — read more
Michael Dell Said We Need to Cut Cost
You know what that means. Buckle up.
Ignoring competition?
It doesn't surprise me that competitors offer higher pay and benefits, but it always surprises me when I hear from those who went to competitors how much better pay and benefits they got. There is no doubt that Dell will become an increasingly... — read more
How relevant is Dell today?
It definitely looks like Dell is struggling to remain relevant in the marketplace today.
Why did Dell actually sell VMware?
The news of Broadcom buying VMWare is currently in focus and I'm wondering if Dell selling VMW was a good decision in hindsight?
Awesome ER! Great quarter!
Woohoo! We did it again! I've never been more optimistic about Dell! My bean are on fire! Hold those LTI stocks Laddies!
PIP - corporate practice for layoffs
I'm thinking about whether there could be cuts after the financial report. Someone here on the forum made a good point - why would Dell lay off employees and pay them to leave, when they have the option to PIP employees instead, most of whom will... — read more
Dell will crush all your good ideas
It is not uncommon for an employee who didn't enjoy a particularly high status at Dell to become a star employee in another company. Most of the employees here do not even try to share their good ideas because they know in advance that they will... — read more

HP, Dell most at risk if China replaces foreign-branded PCs
Not good if this happens. Working at Dell for 12 years expecting knee jerk reaction and restructuring of workers throughout the company
People that have been laid off
I would love to hear how people are doing that have actually been laid off from Dell within the last two years. I can say personally it was the best thing that ever happened to me, and I honestly loved Dell. What I didn't realize was how underpaid I... — read more
Missing experienced employees
Dell is ignoring the importance of experienced employees. Only now, after the company has done nothing to keep those with skills and experience, can you see how wrong their decision was. How can inexperienced employees possibly handle all the... — read more
Cloud? What cloud?
Coming off the back of Dell Forum we were expecting something to sell. But more of the same tin with more better tin features?

Messed up hours
I don't know if this is just a problem for my team or a Dell problem, but expectations here are objectively unrealistic. We are expected to work long hours, to work weekends, to work holidays, and all that to finish in a few weeks something that... — read more

What is the ideal employee for Dell?
My personal opinion is that goals are mostly unrealistic. Do you also have a feeling that managers are losing touch with reality, which they show every day with their expectations of employees? Sometimes I wonder what they want from us? The ideal... — read more

C'mon Dell, we need innovations!
Without innovation, I really don’t know where this company is going. I would like something to change for the better, but I doubt that Dell will ever have a noteworthy innovation again. There are many reasons for that but I think the biggest reason... — read more

It is better to have skills than connections in management
This is the 100th time that I have become convinced that this place is good only for those who have some connections in upper management. Investing effort is not so much important, talent is irrelevant too. Doesn't matter, I'll find a new job, but... — read more
