I've been at dell for 6 years now and to date, I've milked about 25k in certification programs from them. These courses/certs mean NOTHING to dell and won't help for a better raise or promotion but, they are resume builders and look good to other... — read more 

No big changes

Historically - no major cull in Jan always means a very large cull in Feb

The first flakes drifted down over the city, soft and silent, promising a weekend of snowdrifts, frozen driveways, and the kind of cold that makes you grateful for firewood and LED candles. Neighbors huddled indoors, swapping soup recipes and... — read more 

It's kinda nuts because the sushi they sell at the cafeteria is quite literally the same sushi you buy at HEB. Still has the original packaging and stickers - minus the HEB price tag - but charge almost double for it lol. 2 hard boiled eggs in a... — read more 

People are getting rehired by DELL after years of working for other employers. Why so many people are returning to DELL is the question. Is it because the other employers gave them higher salaries and were better managed companies? Find the answer... — read more 

A standardized platform across CSG first will help work out the bugs in Maverick. This will pave the way for the training of the AI replacement for financial and Logistics teams, and to some respects Support. Any bugs will be at first blamed on the... — read more 

It feels like US Citizens regardless of race are being targeted for WFR at dell and why cant the H1bs be sent home as there is no need for them with the diminished opportunities. It just doesn't make legal sense.

Promotions seem to be archaic at Dell - unless you live in India... - Raises are mostly comical and add maybe $100 to your check lol. Travel is for some weird reason STILL restricted - aka conferences, etc... - the literal constant fear of layoffs 12... — read more 

Sales reps, did you receive your last commission check if you quit in the middle of the month? Since we are credited upon shipping, anything that has shipped prior to our last day we should be paid out, right? According to HR: Incentives paid will... — read more 

Dell Technologies faces criticism for a stressful, micromanaged culture, frequent layoffs creating job insecurity, bureaucracy hindering innovation, and poor work-life balance due to high workloads and recent strict return-to-office mandates. While... — read more 

I'm guessing we are in the mid 90k mark at this point and assuming 2k are WFR this spring, plus another 1k over the summer, then another 2k in the fall, maybe they will start bringing promotions back lol?

Title.

Personally, I do. Dell has made it clear they want in office 5 days/week and has stated that all future roles are onsite ONLY - including internal movement. Remotes are not eligible for promotions, and I 100% guarentee it will cut into their bonus... — read more 

I was let go in 2025, ADP site still has not W2 posted for 2025 which seems odd. Perhaps it is paper only if let go?

I know it's not a fun topic, but with everything happening, it's probably smart to think about your next move. For some of us, that might mean taking a step back to learn new skills or even switching to a role with a better long-term future, even if... — read more 

Just wondering if anyone has any intel on exactly when the upcoming layoffs will occur?

Over the past two to three years, there has been a noticeable and troubling shift in Dell’s people culture. What once stood out as the company’s strongest asset—the fabric of trust, inclusion, and employee-centric values—appears to have steadily... — read more 

I can't deal with going to work in Dell tomorrow morning. So depressed.

I think the typical departments will get hit hard again - ISG, CSG, Sales, Engineering, and IT... but I also think Dell is going to start going after full remote employees. Dell no longer allows remote positions (future positions that is) and all... — read more 

Beginning May 3, the company will implement one of the largest structural changes in its history, driven by the adoption of Oracle software and a shift toward a more siloed operating model.

It's obviously always a possibility and I'm honestly tired of the stress every 6 fkning months. I am not in sales, nor an org that generates money if that matters. Historically we rarely, if ever get hit - other than sales 9/10 times - but that is... — read more 

Employees made it over three years of constant layoffs most won’t make it to 2027. The company is going to get eaten alive by competition and the fact Dell doesn’t have relevant products for innovation.

As many of you know, there are almost 300 spots for VSP in France. Till now, only a punch of people (less than 30) have applied. They are basically offering the same package of 2 years ago and expecting people to leave lol, especially with the... — read more 

Lol. This company is complete dog sh-t. They don't want to look bad with layoffs so instead they point a g-n at you to take the new initiative or see 0% of your commission unless you hit 70%. Dumped into the ether (MD and his goons pockets).

I can't help but laugh at his emails these days... He is so out of touch with reality and how Dell REALLY is, it's just hilarious. Pretty sure everyone got "his" email the other day talking about this "modernization" and how tools will be different... — read more

At CES this year, analysts delivered one of the bluntest assessments the PC industry has heard in decades. While Apple and Lenovo are projected to become mega giants by 2030, far larger and more dominant than they are today, HP and Dell face a very... — read more 

Hello India my old friend I’ve come to offshore once again Cause the layoffs softly creeping And the US teams just keep shrinking And the H-1bs, they’re already in the queue Nothing new….. Welcome to the cycle of layoffs

I’ve spent 25 years at this company, mostly in the same role, believing that loyalty, consistency, and hard work would eventually be rewarded. Instead, I’ve watched good people, smart and committed people, get pushed out after giving decades of their... — read more 

Were Dell at CES this year? I've watched a few YT vids about CES and Dell featured in exactly zero. I know JC made some speech about effing up but no product vids.

We all know layoff season is upon us... again.. What are everyone's guesses? To start with, I'm betting a LOT of the Maverick folk's, NC included, PM's, Engineers, Sr. Engineers, and managers who were heavily involved will get cut since the OG... — read more

There needs to be a real reckoning with what unchecked corporate power does to human beings. What happened to EMC after the Dell takeover wasn’t just a business shift. It was a dismantling. A culture was stripped, people were discarded, and decades... — read more 

Big news coming in February - widespread layoffs expected. All areas of the business affected, with a heavy focus on sales. Brace for impact. The numbers are staggering.

What a sad joke. We can't even run a zoom call.
