Thread regarding Dell Inc. layoffs

Dell is dying / dead

Everybody knows it. Continuous layoffs. Plummeting stock price. Customers pulling Dell footprint. No innovation. No enterprise solution portfolio worh a sh-t. Quality hemoraging. Support on life support. Clueless leadership. No AI relevance. Just low-cost, low-margin cheap hardware, that's it. To be honest, that's all Dell really ever was.

@bh well, perhaps check your facts. Jeremy just sold startup Observe, of which he was the CEO to Snowflake, remains on the board there. He’s also a board member at McLaren. His net worth exceeds $120m (probably a little higher than yours?)

What’s your point ?

@J4

Selling VMware to Broadcom was a strategic mistake. While it may have generated significant revenue, it also eroded customer confidence. Many mid-sized businesses chose Dell because it offered a simple model with a single point of support. Since the acquisition, we’ve lost some of those customers , and they are unlikely to return.

There are currently many companies still running VMware 7.x without a clear roadmap or migration strategy.

The feedback I’ve received since the sale reflects deep frustration, including statements such as:

“We will not do business with Dell again.”

“We feel locked into a solution with an uncertain future.”

“The new cost structure limits how much infrastructure we can realistically afford.”

EMC unearthed a diamond in VMWare and then Dell turned it into coal.

Wasn't that the same EMC World where Jeremy shot Chad Sakac out of a cannon?

Dell is like dog sh-t on a shoe... its stinks, its hard to get out, but its always there and always will be. Back in 2012 Jeremy Burton famously referred to Dell as a dead stinking bloated whale at his keynote at EMC World. Today... Jeremy and his EMC friends are in the where are they now file and MD and Dell are worth $100 Billion. Larga vida al rey de la mierda de perro!

Sad thing is Dell had the blueprint for high margins and innovation in it's hands the day we bought EMC. Instead of following it we immediately labeled everything with the EMC name on it as being "wrong" and MD used the blueprint to wipe his backside, then sold the VMware cash cow that Dell somehow found a way to lose money on.
