I'm not in touch with my old team -- triggers my PTSD about how dreadful it was to work there, lol -- but I'm curious if Dell Blue still around. We cost Dell a fortune and turned out lackluster copy so I wouldn't be surprised if external agencies are handling market content now. Agencies are expensive, too, but they're pros. Under our cr-p managers we churned out cr-p content. We had some brilliant writers and designers but appalling leadership who had no idea how to leverage a very creative, competent team.

The VP of Dell Blue was laid off last year and some people have been aligned now under campaigns. Also some job functions are gone: they simply don't support people and design requests they once did.
Thanks for the update. BO was my nemesis, omg -- so toxic. Glad he's gone.
@a4 It was an in-house marketing agency handling Enterprise products . We cranked out copy and graphics for banners, social, infographics, newsletter copy, campaigns, airport and convention signage, etc etc.
Hello, fellow ex-Dell Blue-er. Over the years the ranks have thinned out, but there are still quite a few of the same people still doing the same things. They no longer go by the name Dell Blue and the teams have shuffled around a bit. Still report in under Liz.
The three amigo leaders are gone. I personally thought SP did a lot of damage and was immature and toxic. Can’t speak much for the other two.
It's gone to my knowledge. A couple yrs ago.
@OP - tell is more about Dell Blue.
