Pros

My experience with Dell SecureWorks as a company has been tremendous. I've been treated very well and I honestly get paid to essentially be myself, which is amazing. I work remotely, I set my own hours, my cell phone is paid for, my internet is paid for, I get to travel a lot. I also travel whenever and wherever personally. As long as everything is being handled with case work and the client is happy, management rarely bothers me. The only thing they've told me since I've worked here is, "You're doing great, keep doing what you are doing!"

Cons

The things I don't like about being here is that the company is getting larger and larger very quickly, and with Dell acquiring EMC the company will basically double in size. This is natural for business, but it makes me feel more like a number or an ant. Not that I wasn't already a number working for Dell, but I had a personal connection with Dell since my parents used to work for Dell when I was in school. Working for Dell SecureWorks when I started it didn't feel large because I could easily talk to everyone on my team and get to know people in other divisions. Another thing, and this probably only relates to consulting, I can never stop thinking about work. Even when I'm on break, I'll think about client work and what needs to be done. My mind never shuts off, but this is what I signed up for, and it fits my lifestyle very well. I've been extremely happy working here and don't see myself going anywhere from here. For Christ sake, I work remotely and conduct client meetings in my Pajamas in bed lol. How can life get any better?
