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.
