"Next rounds may be in February (6 months trend - Feb 2023, Aug 2023, Feb 2024) just based on what has happened. This week's layoffs have impacted groups other than sales, hence I don't think it will happen in September (again my thinking... — read more

Sadly only TSR’s got the big hit. ISR’s are safe.

I'm hearing everywhere internally that PS will be gutted in coming months. Managers, ICs, etc. Moving to a partner-first model similar to the direction sales was given to push channel-first. This is the new model. You are surrounded by partner... — read more 

Long term high performer here. I'm really worried about my future at Dell. What if they keep me here? I can't bear to think what life will be like if I'm deemed not surplus to requirements.

A couple of weeks ago they sent out the email asking employees to contribute to Dell PAC to help lobby for issues that are important to Dell. How many people contributed to that only to get notified this week that they won't be working for Dell? ... — read more

Do we know the exact number of folks who were laid off in this round?

Will there be more cuts in September ? WT* , for how long this insanity, fear, anxiety will go? Dell has become circus lately.

There’s a lot of HR bashing here so I’m not expecting this post escape that, but TA took a huge cut today. Not that surprising since there’s not much hiring going on, but lots of folks lost their livelihoods today. Hoping everyone comes out better on... — read more
