Pros

The cafeteria is really good. The people tend to be very nice and friendly to hang out with. Austin is a great town to live in.

Cons

Dell is a good place to work for the first 2 years as a salesperson, especially if you start off in a transactional environment. I made almost 3x my TTC my first year due to overattainment and spiffs. Awesome, right? The problem is that when you move up, it's referred to as a "Dellmotion" - i.e. you get more responsibility but make less money. Ask any sales employee and they will agree. It's happened every year i've been there - "higher position = less money"

Pros

The people are the best part of this job. I have met so many amazing people in this role. Even some I would consider life long friends. I think the experience gained from this job has also been useful for any sales role you may need for any future endeavors in sales or the tech industry.

Cons

Upper management has made many changes to the compensation and the metrics which has for sure effected employee satisfaction. Turnover rate is insane as there’s a new hire class literally every month. Dell itself is running out of room and they are not making any new teams for the new hire classes which has left more tenured reps in a vulnerable position.
