This is worst place to join. They will advertise worl life balance and hire with low salary comparative to best compan. But they will grind resources like anything. Every year they fire 10% peoples. Tell dell is scam if you submit your genuine review against things you are odd man out. And you will be targeted by then.

...y don’t work as team and most of the time tries to take credit of others work. Second thing is poor salary hike.. Even after putting my day and night for one full year, got only 5.6% as annual hike , which is less than the inflation rate.. Otherwise, Dell as a company is good but you are lucky if you are getting a good team , who can respect your skills and give you the credit.

a technical project manager

Deadend

Hi, I'm here to share a part of my journey from the past 12 years in my career, I started from a package of 3.6LPA in 2013 at iGate and due to a few bad decisions on my career and worthless advices from people who are always pessimistic about the industry, I switched two companies and landed in a start-up with 2.4LPA. I worked hard nearly 8-16hrs a day single handed researched, built and managed an entire vertical of a project for 8 years. When the company didn't value my contribution and thought I was too young to become a manager, I had a package of 6LPA and Senior developer in designation. I switched for obvious reasons to a TL role for 12LPA and now at the same company I'm a TPM on the basis of my contribution with 48LPA as a fixed component. I feel outclassed in terms of having a fancy CV with certifications, I feel like CTC has hit a peak with 48LPA being fixed and nearly 40% in Variable. Most companies are hesitant to hire me because of this. What should be my next move?
