Pros

Dell pay more than others.

Cons

No work life balance: they make you work a lot in and outside the company. Legacy apps: a lot of old stuff running. Hard times to shut down old systems. Recognition: no recognition for deliverables/milestones. Low (or no) budget: no money for hardware refresh. No joke. Bureaucracy: a bunch of approvals for changing a piece of code that people don't even know what is it for. Lack of focus on managers: speed up your promotion if you don't work with your team. Promotion: yes if you have good contacts even you work.

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.
