Preparing for the worst

I hope all of you are doing ok. Almost 10 years with Dell and these constant shakeups are tiring. I'm assuming we will get news the last week of July. Just coast the rest of July and see where you end up. Nothing you can do about it at this point. If... — read more

Silver Lining

Is it that corporations (Dell) are truly looking out for our general well being with the new return to work model? Could it be the very issue of mental health as to one of the top reasons? Never mind the increased costs of travel, the stress of long... — read more 

Ashamed to have Dell on my resume

I devoted myself to looking for new opportunities because I don't see that anything will be better here. At the same time, I don't think I've ever been more ashamed of having Dell on my resume. I'm probably not the only one? I don't know how... — read more

Been Awful quiet regarding RTO....

Its been dead silent the last month about RTO after they were talking about it almost daily.... Not a peep from MD either about RTO since it was announced which is very odd since he always comments to the team after big changes like that. I wonder... — read more

Don't fall for this cr-p

I just read that a survey showed that tech workers are willing to give up on high salaries and take a pay cut amid mass layoffs. I think this is nothing but bullsh-t. It's so easy to fake the results of a survey it's laughable. And they've been... — read more

Dell perception in the Job Market?

Expecting to be laid off. Lots of org changes in past eight months and my new boss is very distant past couple of months and my input is rarely sought on anything. My motivation is almost at 0. The silence is deafening. For those laid off recently... — read more 

Who??? Many more ‘frontline’ than pro 300k 1x1ers
