I’m kidding.

If they are going to force us to RTO if we are with 60 miles/1 hour of an office after making massive office cuts. AND they are going to PIP/fire people for noncompliance. Can we be overly compliant? Go in! Do it! When there are not enough desks... — read more 

I'm curious. The company has gone through multiple WFRs. We are at what maybe 30,000 people let go since COVID started ? Is there anyway to turn this ship around ? Curious to hear your thoughts on where should the company focus to start making... — read more 

I’ve been getting a lot of people contacting me on LinkedIn with new opportunities. One was a company with a reputation of interviewing people just to have their names on file in case of attrition. (They have a lot). Two others were complete scams... — read more 

I am weary from working under so-called leaders who have consistently let me down, failed to demonstrate genuine growth throughout their extensive careers, and have been preoccupied with misplaced priorities at Dell. Please forgive me if I sound... — read more 

I understand that it's not ideal. But I don't understand how people managed to get to the office with no issues before but suddenly it's a huge issue? Did all of you guys move? I mean, I understand opposing RTO on the basis that WFH is generally more... — read more 

This su-ks. I just learned that there was a WFR in Dell IT and Ubuntu support for work laptops is going away. I don't even remember the last time I used Windows. It's going to be so weird to go back to that OS. Seems like an odd move though.

Commuting would be just barely manageable, but I would have to say goodbye to having even a semblance of life. Moving for work doesn’t make sense either in this day and age. It costs too much money and energy, only to get laid off or otherwise kicked... — read more 

Anyone from DFS (Dell Fin Services) got affected this week?

So I decided even though I live within 30 minutes and my status will inevitably be updated to on site - I'm just not going to do it. I'll keep working remotely and doing well and we will just see what happens. I think I'll just make excuses.. there... — read more 

Has anyone just requested to be WFR when the time comes? Managers like to have a bit of padding for WFR . Why not volunteer to be that padding?

Howdy howdy! April is just right around the corner, thank goodness we kept zoom! You all may have noticed how light the WFRs were this month - it will more than be made up for come April. A few sprinkles in March but don't let that matter much. April... — read more 

Building costs will be skyrocketing with influx of new RTO mandate. Do not fall for the conserve the planet garbage that will inevitably follow. Use as much resources and then some while you are onsite.

Checked my email this morning. One of our “I’m just a regular gal/guy like you” VPs sent an announcement late last night for a “Technology Unplugged meeting at 9:00am. Less than 12 hours notice and I was asleep for seven of those hours. I declined... — read more 

Check your information in Workday which has been updated this week to remote or office

Has anyone heard about site Closures happening ?

What's happening tomorrow? Any news?

There is only one way to send a message to the execs and the board, do not participate in Tell Dell. Because if you participate and that translated to a lower eNPS score, they will shamelessly lower the benchmark once again and party. Instead boycott... — read more 

Immediate management is so passive aggressive with how they word things that you are to do....then alot of it is just vague enough so you really dont have a firm grasp of it all so if you fk up something they can say that they told you to do so, but... — read more 

Do tell?

Or are all requests being denied through HR? Has anyone had any luck?

It’s been a week and a half since they announced RTO, yet the actual policy still hasn’t been posted. Any larger call I was on last week that included HR had tons of questions looking for clarification, only to be met with “we are still working on... — read more 

Hello. Big announcement incoming, several on NDA's. Anyone know what to expect? Office rumour in Ireland is either a merge or split (in the way HP did it).

People on the leadership team and in HR clearly attended a Jack Welch seminar from 1986 because that’s how they’re running the company. Reward only the top 10%, regardless of how much talent you have on the team, deliberately reduce bonus... — read more 

Anyone currently experiencing this?

Further WFRs this week, hearing Wednesday is the day and at all levels

What is the date we have our end of year chat with our managers & get our piece of paper with any bonus info? What date is it actually paid out/received by us? And what is the actual date any pending shares vest? Can’t find info for this anywhere!... — read more 

How many of us, like me, check Ur email on Sunday to see if there is a 1:1 set up for Monday morning. Thanks Michael Dell

The Five Day RTO is great. It allows me to enjoy my early mornings, evenings, and weekends more freely. As our policies evolve to favor oligarchs, those oligarchs will continue to overreach and impose unfair policies. Over time, this will help... — read more 

All this talk about Unions and Strikes. Never gonna happen. People in general are selfish. They want to keep their paychecks and comfortable lives regardless of how deep they are drowning in their own struggles or messes. Many people rather drown... — read more 

I’m guessing those calling for a union don’t work at Dell. If they do all I can say is; If you want a union then get off your butt and organize. Unions take a lot of work and sacrifice, they don’t just show up. It isn’t like the 19th and early 20th... — read more 

Damn feel stress free after layoff thank god!! To all my brothers and sisters left behind start something while paycheck is coming in it is going to be worth it. Love you all.

So my situation is I live about 50k from the closest office (Limerick).. it normally takes me just over the hour anytime I go in. I'm still listed as remote in Workday so I don't know what my status will be. I've worked through the logistics and I... — read more 

I was on the fence about leaving, but once again spending my weekend worrying about my job instead of recharging and enjoying myself is all the confirmation I need. I’m too old for this. While the job market might not be ideal, I’ve seen others land... — read more 

Does anyone know the breakdown of race, gender, age of those layed off?

Someone in the rumor mill group said they were told a client was added to your PC if you're WFR'd, to ensure when leaving you didn't take any confidential info or copy anything. Not sure if it's turn or not, but good to know.

What kind of % increase is typical with a promotion in Ireland?
