Pros

The compensation can be very lucrative, but not as much as it was a few years ago. The people that I work with are the best part of the job.

Cons

Everyone in sales is micro-managed, and they are more concerned with activity metrics than actual performance. It is easier for them to manage metrics than manage people.

Pros

The benefits are good overall. PTO is generous and the culture is pretty good depending on your department. Dell has a lot of vendors it partners with that offer a lot of incentives. They put on many events which can break up the monotony after returning to office 5 days a week.

Cons

Commission payouts have significantly decreased since I started. They seem to change the commission structure every quarter which is frustrating. Quotas are inflated due to price increases across the industry. They continue to implement new KPIs which must be met in order to get promoted. So you're essentially having to constantly do more work for less pay.
