Dell Technologies Employee Reviews & Ratings

- Company culture has been getting worse with constant layoffs and RTO mandates - Lack of growth opportunities

Fewer benefits. Lower salary & a lot of org changes.

Pay and work/life balance, mangement

1. Lack of strategic clarity at the leadership level 2. Stagnant career and poor appraisals 3. Fewer rewards and recognition

your chances of getting converted to full time is very low if you are not from a top college their is lot of office politics management is not good

The opportunity to promotion is very limited. Because the opportunities are for those who are under development program

no perks like cab, free food, other persk

Poor IT systems High Pressure Technical skills went backwards in this role

Constant stress to sell regardless of what customer said their needs were; hard to hit metrics for most newer employees; part of pay structure commission based which is typical for sales positions, but not one I had experienced previously

no remote work and office far to the city center

work can be a lot sometimes.

not really for me long term

- Outdated tech - Not much wrong here

Constantly restructuring and “doing more with less”

None, Dell Technologies is a great place to work

No growth for remote talent

Sometimes unclear project requirements lead to rework. Limited resources can slow down project progress.

Return to office mandate Everyone trying to only make their own business grow Not much help from other team members Network development takes a back stage

Can get stuck sometimes, company is so complex

For mid level, you have a team to lead,a group of leader to serve. Keep doing POC and changing direction, effort wasted. Too many decisions maker in 1 team.

literally everything else is awful, constant pay cuts

There is a horrific place for employees. The culture has evolved into a grim effort to grind through the latest re-organization or the latest customer-unfriendly policy change while looking forward to the next in a never-ending conveyor belt of layoffs ("WFRs"). Dell took a serious physical and mental toll on me while stunting my career growth. It's infinitely better outside of Dell in a company that has a humane and healthy culture.

flexibility -work life balance-management- -Career growth

Salary is less. Promotions are difficult.

Very political, now fully in office, promote people not ready for leadership

Less salary as per market standards

pay is alright could be better

Management policies do not make sense at times

In office Old tools Too political

Due to external consultancy service providers like delloitte team is pretty mixed up. No quaterly review

unstable at times, flip flopping change in strategy

Constant layoffs. Not clear in direction, first announced 50% would be remote by certain year then a few years later complete u-turn to on-site. Did not follow vision but rather what other companies were doing.

The organization is having lots of changes, structures.

- Limited openings in popular cities to move to

5 days onsite, teams giving out lowest priority job for you

too little projects with the team

nothing to say about all good

Nothing that I can think of

Corporate directives divide and weaken every aspect of their business and the customers suffer for it

Nothing much demanding. Easy work.

Cons cons cons cons cons

It takes some time to move to the next step.

There are no cons as such it is a good place to work

- Constant nonsensical reorganizations (at least 2 per year) affecting many teams; often large parts of teams split (30-50%) or multiple individuals move to unrelated teams. - Salary increases were very low, even for top performers (1-4%). - A 180-degree change with Return to Office (5 days a week) after public claims that Dell is focused on remote work for the future. Some teams (mostly sales) received this without warning (a change from 3 to 5 days), with the change starting next week. RTO was also applied to members whose colleagues are all in different countries. - The big open office was completely filled after the return to office. It’s hard to work for teams where multiple people are on calls most of the time. - Communication from top management is very dishonest and chaotic. - Multiple years of hiring freeze and constant firing (headcount went from ~133,000 in 2023 to ~108,000 at the start of 2025, and this continues this year). - Morale is at rock bottom. - Large increase in workload. Many people are burning out. - Results from internal employee surveys are ignored. - Promotions are very rare — success and saving the company thousands of dollars is rewarded with more work and maybe a shout-out and coupons worth a few dollars... It’s really not worth being a top performer in this company. - If you don’t believe it, grab some popcorn and read some of the THOUSANDS of comments on thelayoff.com/dell

There's been a significant decrease in R&D spend the past several years so it's difficulty selling as the technology has been lagging. There's constant re-orgs, once sometimes twice a year. One of my co-works is on his 10th manager in 8 years and this is more common than not. There's constant layoffs, most of the people I know feel like they're on 6 months contracts. It's still run like a PC/mfg company and until the old guard, like the COO, are gone it's tough to see the culture changing.

-lack of promotion opportunity -instead of NPI engineer, more toward like a sustaning engineer, as opportunities always reserved to experience engineer

The compensation package could be more competitive.

work from office, workload, toxic management

Salary could be better. Work/life balance should be better

not a lot of opportunities for growth when coming from acquisition
