Pros

I love the computer industry. It's a hobby as much as a job.

Cons

Just about everything else... I've been rated good or best every year but I'm still the same level that I was 13 years ago. Management is deeply involved in every decision but makes them without the experts or data in the room...and never tells employees their decisions until some issue comes up with it that the employee has to fix. Senior leadership is lost in the wilderness. There is no diligence to finding out what's wrong and working to fix it. Everthing is a blind shot in the dark based on "gut feel".

Pros

There are many perks with working with Dell. For example, sometimes when there's a lot of overtime, people who actually complete all the required hours get gift cards to WalMart. Every 3 months we get a free catered lunch and an additional free meal. We receive discounts at various places around Austin. Every year there's a free trip (up to 4 tix) to a theme park. When you do good work, you get opportunities to cash in "Star of Dell" cards. Outstanding employees get chances to win electronics and/or gift cards. There's free raffles almost every other month to win things.

Cons

OVERTIME, OVERTIME, OVERTIME! People with families don't get to spend much time with them. You can't really plan out your weekends because sometimes they give us notices during Friday's shift about coming in on Saturdays and Sundays. You must be flexible with your schedule to work here. But I must say, doubletime paychecks are pretty nice. =)

Pros

Austin Many people are out the door at 5 Brand recognition on the resume Remarkably good work / life balance

Cons

Extremely limited career growth. Like IBM of old, Dell employees have to wait for someone up the line to leave in order to be promoted. Recent requirements for management scope and layering mean that many people who could grow their careers in leadership opportunities cannot do so. Very constrained innovation environment. The focus on cost continues, at the expense of pleasing the customer.
