What's your #1 pick... My pick: "We are a family"

I was thinking recently about a few folks who were cut last year and ended up landing on their feet in surprising ways. One started freelancing and now earns more with half the stress, and another moved abroad and rebuilt her whole routine. Knowing... — read more 

Just curious if anyone has info on where it's at

You’re seeing more and more AEs talking about PIPs on the rise. Not because performance suddenly tanked, but because targets quietly drifted into fantasy-land and Dell doesn’t want to pay severance.

The heading says it all

Can they just admit they made a mistake and bring back Sudhir?

Anyone got a 1:1 for tomorrow?

Of how well BFCM went / how JC & MD manned the phones to help out. YOY increases and the usual BS that it was the best year ever ?

Trying sh---y AI into performance is a new low.

Is anyone out there selling or deploying Dell Private Cloud? It seems like we are just selling on promise at this point, and I do not trust this company to execute the vision into reality.

I am lucky that I still have job in Dell. But I want to move. I am waiting for job market to become better for a couple years. Unfortunately, 2025 could be the best year of job market in the next 10 y. AI is going to take all of our jobs eventually...

Hot off the presses: If you don’t hit your quota AND you aren’t hitting 80% metrics with the “modern selling tools” (namely SalesChat), you are put on a “coaching plan”…. AKA PIP. So dystopian. I’ve hit my number every quarter over the past four... — read more 

ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND??? Whoever decided that scheduling can be automated has not spent a single day in this department. Everyone in the top leadership is deluded and your subordinates are too scared to speak.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone on board. Over the past six months, being here has truly felt like being welcomed into a real community and a second family. I am grateful for the support, kindness, and everyday moments we have shared... — read more 

Everything here is built around the next report instead of building something stable. People keep saying we matter, but the decisions never match the words. Offshoring set off a slow slide that everyone felt right away. The culture has not recovered... — read more 

There’s never been a moment when Dell felt this off-course. Never been a moment when they reached straight into people’s pockets and acted like it was business as usual. Never been a moment when they grabbed freedom with one hand and shrugged with... — read more 

Maybe I'm paranoid but better safe than sorry... I pick a random country. Could be Sweden, maybe Germany, or maybe Albania. I'm in Canada but idk, I like to be a tad harder to trace just in case :)

I hate it but not because I hate being in the office but because of my commute, gas money and spending money on tolls that I can't avoid. I actually don't mind being in office for a few hours but I do know there is no "collaboration" going on lol... — read more 

I’ve been in tech field sales for 7 years now, is this a dead end career path at this point? I assume I’ll eventually get reduced as well, and it’ll be even bleaker for me to find a new job when it does. What should I be looking to transition into if... — read more 

I'm thinking less than normal because NDA was pushed back a quarter.

How’s morale for you? I am exhausted from the layoffs. Wish they would just get the firing over with already. This place su-ks now.

mine does, both of them

I’ve tried to accept that I could be cut any day and just live with it. I’ve been focusing on job searching, but that’s only made me feel more depressed. I can’t shake the spikes of anxiety, and I’m barely sleeping. This has dragged on for so long... — read more 

Some are summoned, some are spared! the flame alone knows why.

Try and get a job and you'll see, it’s not happening.

How invested is JC et al in monitoring their workforce. Do they do it in-house? If so with what? Or do they rely on MS & Teams n stuff?

It would not surprise me if they lay off more people tomorrow.

Layoff Announcements: UPS: 48,000 employees Amazon: Up to 30,000 employees Intel: 24,000 employees Nestle: 16,000 employees Accenture: 11,000 employees Ford: 11,000 employees Novo Nordisk: 9,000 employees Microsoft: 7,000... — read more 

If the AI hype has already peaked, does that mean Dell backed the wrong horse? Does this mean MD might finally show JC the door for failing? And what does all of this mean for the rest of Dell?”

I couldn't agree more with this vlog https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Dd33C4k-Zs

My manager came up to me yesterday and said, “I’ve noticed you haven’t been here for the full eight hours. People are talking. Leadership’s watching badge logs. I can’t have you leaving at 2 or 3.” They’re building a list of everyone not clocking... — read more
