Same mistakes being repeated

Dell pure and simple is a commodities company and the sales force and much of the field engineering staff reflect that. Any technology that takes more than a quarter to sell they run from as much as possible. Currently the big thing is storage again.... after hiring and firing four sets of storage experts Dell is doing it again, problem is they truly believe their AE/SC's know storage and will sell it which is bunk. They need to take storage and networking and let them run their own business devoid of client selling AE's and Server centric SE's. As for management most are channel legacy types who couldn't sell their way out of a paper bag. All show no go as they say guard rail to guard rail in their decisions.

To whom it may concern you really need to grow up stud. You don't know anything about me and are making rather crude obnoxious comments. You don't agree with what I say fine but the personal attacks speak volumes about your lack of professionalism . Go see a notebook.. that takes real talent.

Think about the lack of logic in what you just said. So Michael Dell just spent $62billion for no apparent reason at all buying a complex and high value federation of orgs . . . but he only cares about client and servers . . not storage, not vmware, not security . . nothing else he just spent all that money on.

It sounds like you are more worried about being accountable to more than 3 deals a year and actually have a regular sales funnel.

Don’t have to run a company to recognize incompetence. Dell is proud of doing the same things over and over expecting different results. It IS a commodity driven company and it’s sales Force reflects that. Why sell more complicated products when you can make your number pushing client and servers? No real talent needed to do that just drop your pants on price and hope for the best and as said as long as Michael gets richer all is good.

That makes no sense at all and explains why you dont run a company.

It is not a mistake if Mr.Dell is making money.
