Pros

Lots of young people (in sales.) Fun atmosphere, lots of giveaways via contests (computers, money, etc.) Great work site, with state-of-the-art gym and world-class cuisine at the cafeteria.

Cons

Initially, the pay was excellent. I was a top producer and regularly took home some very serious cash. Then, the company started using a "team" system, which rewarded those at the bottom and helped the company cut the salaries of those at the top. Also, the company has no problem with working its employees 70 hours a week sometimes. This overtime usually comes with little warning.

Pros

Dell encourages cross functional movement and the ability to try out different areas of the company. If you are looking to build broad general management skills, this is a good place. You have to own your career path, and senior leaders are very willing to mentor you through the process. Dell has a good global brand and footprint and can provide you opportunities for international experiences as well.

Cons

Management (starting from the CEO down) doesnt make people a priority. There is no identifiable strategy or culture that is communicated clearly to the employees. The answer for everything is a re-org and it can lead to a series of very frustrating and unproductive exercises. There is no consistent process for accountability and promotion, so you have to find a way to constantly market yourself to move up. Introverted people will struggle with this. Dell used to be innovative and disruptive but lately has been following the "me too" strategy.

Pros

it is on of a few computer manufacturers in the US, Austin is a nice place to live in

Cons

Company is falling behind the market due to many re-organizations. has no strategy, and lacks the Consumer electronics products to stimulate the sale of its computers. In addition people work in a continuous fear to be fired and it seems that most of the people who work there - it was their last choice.
