I wonder if this is simply the beginning of layoffs, or, maybe it's something else. The rumor mill has it layoffs will happen starting the latter part of this month into late August. *It will be a sad day for many. No matter what you think of... — read more

Dell don’t try to rebrand data centers as ‘AI factories’
Do we even understand who our customers are? We should consider hiring some better marketing people.
DFS all hands
Anyone on the all hands today? Six leaders retiring? What’s up with that.

Its mid July!
Phase 2 Counties, any update?
After the RTO announcement, there were countries that Dell could not enforce their B.S. and had to go through legal channels to force people out. I live in one of these phase 2 countries. Not heard anything since...
Just do the bare minimum
That's what I've been doing for the last few months and my mental health has improved dramatically. Trying to do the work of three people was ki-ling me. I'm done with that. If they want to lay me off for this, fine. I'll take my severance and make... — read more
Make them pay severance and stay put
The tech market is currently in a bubble frenzy. The higher ups know it's only a matter of time for the bubble to pop. They will keep cutting leaner riding the hype wave in anticipation for the correction. After the implosion there will be a very... — read more

Middle management layoffs
Middle management will be hit for sure as they are about to introduce this new rule where every manager needs to have at least 14 direct reports. But it seems that regular employees are gonna be hit too… Has this been confirmed?
How long more to wait!
How long more to wait for the summer layoffs, i want them to get started !
New Position Means Hybrid
This is one of the worst parts of the RTO. Going remote and not being promoted is fine since no one is being promoted on their own team anyways. Making people swap to hybrid if they were remote and landed a spot on a different team is id--tic. I know... — read more
You need to grow up Dell
Dell - you need to get with it. The culture of the industry and society has changed. Working remote or hybrid isn’t the issue. That’s really not the issue. The issue is your lack of adaptation to the industry. It’s changed. People want to both... — read more

50% opted for remote
When 50% of your employees give you the middle finger for RTO that should tell you where you are as a company.
Is there a plan?
I mean, anybody has ideas on how to move forward? Pull Dell out of increasing irrelevance? If not, gimme severance and let me be on my way.
Loss of talent
Is nobody worried that we’re losing talent at an astounding rate? We’re already having issues staying competitive, imagine how things will be five years from now if people continue leaving at the current rate. The future looks anything but bright, in... — read more

If August predictions are correct, I hope I will be let go
I’ve been planning to leave for a while, and have been scouting for a job. Was even offered at one point a remote position (unicorn these days, I know). It’s not impossible to find something else, and I wouldn’t mind even being paid less just to be... — read more

So what will happen to the MB segment?
After absorbing SB, and heavily cutting MB, stripping the DCSE and any other allignment away, is MB going to stop existing in August, anyone have any insight? What will happen to the people (TSR's)
It’s begun
Talent acquisition/HR team members have begun to receive their notices. Historically the team that gets hit first to then support the broader company wfrs. Good luck to all.
With all the talk about August layoff
I am convinced it's all guesswork 100%. Sorry, this forum goes into a frenzy are are rarely correct. The ex dell laid off needs to move on with their lives.
Do we know any of this for sure re: August layoffs?
Enterprise and commercial T1 merge. Trim excess. Mb gone absorbed. AE’s and Dcse merged -trim excess. Specialty consolidation but I’m hearing that specialty will have the bulk of their cuts in February. This will be a very large and uncomfortable... — read more

August layoffs
So what's the deal with August , will there be a formal email or will it just be drips and drabs like recently
So I picked remote
despite all the doom and gloom. Not going to RTO. Why would I keep investing in a bad investment. 50% of the USA employees have opted remote to their chagrin. When will the layoffs come down on remotes? If that does happen you hybrids are going to... — read more

Why are all of Michael Dell’s company talks so scripted?
As a Dell employee that’s fairly new (2 years), I find it odd that every time Michael Dell does an all hands meeting for the entire company he just reads a script and it sounds totally fake. You’d expect him to have more confidence. Even when he’s... — read more
