Dislikes

Company culture is good. Policies are good such as employee benefits, leaves.

Dislikes

Job security: Dell recently layed off more than 12000 employees and may cut down more head count so it's job security is a major issue. Salary: Salary is little below market standards. Appraisal/promotion : Once you reach to principal engineer position, promotion seems like an alien concept because 1 in around 30-40 principal engineer gets promoted to Sr principal level that too after ATLEAST after 10-12 years working as a principal engineer. Skill development/Learning : NO Scope whatsoever for new learning. Most of people who left there jobs recently were due to lack of opportunities to learn new skills and were bored/tired of working on the same things for years. So if you have a hunger to learn new things, Dell is certainly NOT a place for you. Work satisfaction: As mentioned above there is no scope for new skill development and learning, people get sick of working on the same things and in turn are not satisfied with their work....Read More

Office is inside the city. There is nothing good apart from this.

Dislikes

* Dell's U-turn towards work-from-home policy. * Employees are always scared about firings. * Managers & Leads always escape during the tough times and ensure they get credit over good things. * Too much of Politics. * A lot of groupism. I am sorry to say the majority are TN folks and they make sure you are cornered all the time.

The main perk of working at dell is that you are exposed to a variety of software and hardware products apart from your own. There is always a huge learning opportunity.

Dislikes

The promotions at senior level are difficult.

Everything that was good about Dell ended 2 years back. Nothing is good now.

Dislikes

No job security- frequent layoffs. They want to chase off people and not give severance, so they are trying everything in their power to make the employees more miserable and feel tortured from 5 days a week policy and no promotions. And from what I have heard extremely low or negligible salary hikes. The culture is extremely bad for a long term perspective and would take a toll on your mental health. The work that they make you do is dated and not industry relevant. So don't join dell unless you want to spoil your mental health and career....Read More

Management who is sitting for a long time do any kind of politics to keep the strong hold hence only they grow and not others. Growth is very very difficult. This also makes work culture toxic

Dislikes

Doesn't matter how much you work no promotion/Appraisals. I know people waiting for promotion more than 6 years. They change the working model as they please. Change you career path if they want position to be filled. If you stay long in the company looking for a new job will be a nightmare because you'll lose confidence in your own knowledge. STAY AWAY
