Shanghai office closing?
I heard rumors they are closing operations in China can anyone confirm this? Are they closing the Shanghai office?
Director told me they plan for a 10k WFR this spring
Not sure how true this is but my director said they heard rumors - just rumors - that a 10k WFR is planned for the next 3 months. At least half of which will be in February and March. I do know they are part of a leadership TEAMS chat because they... — read more
Not a manager but it's bs that....
My manager of 5 years, along with 99% of sr.managers last Feb. were demoted to a lesser role - consultant/PM - and stripped of their leadership/manager level rank. Not sure if their pay changed but regardless, my manager was sadly demoted. He is a... — read more

Any WFR's in APJ?
Anyone from the APJ region got their meeting invite regarding WFR? Most of the recent WFR's I've heard are all in US or EMEA. Wonder how APJ is doing.
Got my business update email
Yo folks! Finally freedom on Feb 6th. Many many folks in ISG are getting it apparently!
Badge reporting is so bad, they took the report down
Go look in Workday. They changed "Site Visits" to "Site Visit Maintenance" and it says "We are aware of issues with site level reporting and have temporarily taken the report down until those are resolved". This place is a circus.
Coaching Plan (the nice way to say PIP)
I was placed on a formal coaching plan and, despite making progress, did not reach the final performance threshold. Now waiting to see what comes next, hopeful for an extension to continue building momentum. Anyone else have feedback on how coaching... — read more
They Forced me out after 27 years
With a pip. What a horrible company
Got the call
Received the notification of my last day Feb 6th. I wish everyone the best here. It was not my ideal place to work but I came here 2+ years ago thinking it might grow on me. On to the next thing.
Cowboys from (D)He-l
They failed to pay my last salary. I left Dell on my own terms and they haven’t made the last salary payment. Never could I ever imagine I’d have to start a debt collection process against one of the richest companies in the world! For those that... — read more
Was notified today.
Will post all other details after I receive the settlement.
how long were you there before you were laid off?
less than a year would be crazy
Soooo, how much was your biggest Dell raise ever?
Soooo, how much was your biggest Dell raise ever? #gold
Were they actually funding your grad degrees ?
Im doing online grad school this fall thats just about a year and I was just curious if dell Deadasss does help financially with the tuition ?
Seniority no longer protects you
The old rule of laying off the newest people with least experience first seems to be gone. Completely vanished. These days, tenure makes you a target. The longer you've been with Dell, the higher a chance of being laid off. If that isn't messed up, I... — read more
I hate it at Dell and I wish they'd put me out of my misery!
Currently in the process of getting managed out. I was told that there are 150 people that have all been put on performance plans. Meet a certain % of plan by end of Q or be put on an official. I would take any package if offered. Every day is like... — read more
NGSA
Anyone else having the joy of working with NextGen AEs straight out of school? I work with a few, and the spectrum is… spectacular. A tiny minority might actually grow into the role. The rest have perfected the art of delegating everything except... — read more
Calling in Sick
This week as I am hearing it’s going to be bad. Might as well use some sick time
My countdown is on
I do my job well, but I ignore all the corporate games. I'm too close to retirement to waste energy on that stuff. The paycheck is the only reason I'm still here at this point.
I just got a job with dell and Im already scared of getting layed off already
this is my first job fresh from college, i wont be making much but enough to support myself, but seeing the rep is scaring me and now im like should i be looking for somewhere else even while im working there? was there any warnings about lay offs?... — read more
Take advantage of Dell's education program to find a new job
I've been at dell for 6 years now and to date, I've milked about 25k in certification programs from them. These courses/certs mean NOTHING to dell and won't help for a better raise or promotion but, they are resume builders and look good to other... — read more
No big layoffs - only people on PIPs affected
No big changes
February cuts
Historically - no major cull in Jan always means a very large cull in Feb
Winter is coming: A tale of Snow and PIPs
The first flakes drifted down over the city, soft and silent, promising a weekend of snowdrifts, frozen driveways, and the kind of cold that makes you grateful for firewood and LED candles. Neighbors huddled indoors, swapping soup recipes and... — read more
Why are cafe prices so ridiculously expensive lol?
It's kinda nuts because the sushi they sell at the cafeteria is quite literally the same sushi you buy at HEB. Still has the original packaging and stickers - minus the HEB price tag - but charge almost double for it lol. 2 hard boiled eggs in a... — read more
People are flocking back to DELL!!
People are getting rehired by DELL after years of working for other employers. Why so many people are returning to DELL is the question. Is it because the other employers gave them higher salaries and were better managed companies? Find the answer... — read more
Maverick The AI Trojan Horse
A standardized platform across CSG first will help work out the bugs in Maverick. This will pave the way for the training of the AI replacement for financial and Logistics teams, and to some respects Support. Any bugs will be at first blamed on the... — read more
Why can't Dell layoff H1bs?
It feels like US Citizens regardless of race are being targeted for WFR at dell and why cant the H1bs be sent home as there is no need for them with the diminished opportunities. It just doesn't make legal sense.
Why go above and beyond, or even work hard at this point?
Promotions seem to be archaic at Dell - unless you live in India... - Raises are mostly comical and add maybe $100 to your check lol. Travel is for some weird reason STILL restricted - aka conferences, etc... - the literal constant fear of layoffs 12... — read more
Leaving first week of the quarter
Sales reps, did you receive your last commission check if you quit in the middle of the month? Since we are credited upon shipping, anything that has shipped prior to our last day we should be paid out, right? According to HR: Incentives paid will... — read more
asked Google why Dell was so bad to work for
Dell Technologies faces criticism for a stressful, micromanaged culture, frequent layoffs creating job insecurity, bureaucracy hindering innovation, and poor work-life balance due to high workloads and recent strict return-to-office mandates. While... — read more
Is it far fetched to think promotions will return once Dell hits their employee number?
I'm guessing we are in the mid 90k mark at this point and assuming 2k are WFR this spring, plus another 1k over the summer, then another 2k in the fall, maybe they will start bringing promotions back lol?
