Reorganization = layoffs
There were no layoffs. A reorg was announced but no job loss. Such a naive stance. Do you know of one reorganization that was not either based on getting rid of a bunch of employees or that was not followed by huge layoffs? It's their sole purpose... — read more
Are there layoffs planned at Irvine office today ?
There is a visit from the VP which feels a bit out of context followed by an all-hands for the Irvine site and is very much reminiscent of how layoffs happened in 2015.
Update layoffs in Ireland?
Does anyone have any further update on layoffs in Ireland please thanks
Things have to change
There are WAY too many storage specialists tripping over themselves in the sales org. Very highly paid and only working their own tiny silo, too many lines of storage. Competing for the same bids and same shrinking pie, but always unavailable to get... — read more

Lay off one layer of management
I have a suggestion. It really will not hurt to cut one whole layer of management globally which is the layer after the first layer of manager because: they have no technical expertise they are not smarter or better informed than the layrr above them... — read more

Layoffs each month starting November
I got laid off last week and heard that November 2017, december 2017 and january 2017 are going to be a big purge. It is the BEST (India, Malaysia, China) vs the REST(US, Ireland). So the layoffs are going to be happening in the REST sites. EMC IT is... — read more
It is actually very simple
The problem is actually very simple. The company is too big that many real talents are lost in the waves. The layers is the basic cause, we have Mr Dell himself, the execs, then VP followed by another VP then director that acts like a VP then manager... — read more

QA suffers, large customers walk
A lot of people in QA across the board are being "relieved of their duties". Few large federal customers [2 in US, 1 in Canada] are not renewing data center storage, software and implementation / operation services. Don't look good, IMO.
Tough decisions in storage
Jeff Clarke is going to take tough decisions. In this climate of declining storage revenues and disruptive technologies there is but no other option. The SC all flash was released last week with very little capital investment. This is no new candy... — read more

I hate QBRs, really hate them!
It is amazing to see how low the numbers are coming out of the QBRs. Everyone's numbers are way down compared to last year. The pressure from management is almost unbearable. Someone is definitely going to get cut very soon. This really s---s!
VPs and Directors should be measured on what they can do for us and actually deliver.
Why do we need to celebrate VPs coming to our site when they bring no value. Waste our site budget, just waste our time having to show up so the crowd of worshippers looks big enough for the VP to reward the top eunuchs then forgot we exists. My time... — read more

We are hearing that few senior VIP people are getting laid of...Will this have any impact on the future of this center?
To ask Dell EMC pay incentive cash, but Dell wants to refuse. What is the legal name of Dell Canada?
I filed a claim in court to ask Dell EMC to pay me the big incentive cash, but Dell lawyer told the court the corp name is not correct, so ask the court to cancel the case. Who can share the real legal name?

Big layoffs coming
As if the layoffs over the last two years was not enough there are confirmed discussions of another 10% layoff something for early 2018. The company is not measuring up to expectations so the working staff will pay the price.
Same mistakes being repeated
Dell pure and simple is a commodities company and the sales force and much of the field engineering staff reflect that. Any technology that takes more than a quarter to sell they run from as much as possible. Currently the big thing is storage... — read more
