Thread regarding Dell Inc. layoffs

It stops making sense once you’re actually in the seat. No decent, self-respecting person would subject themselves to this kind of torture for long.

Apply for 20 jobs a week and leave, I did.

Life is much better after leaving.

Yes, the market is cr-p but it's a numbers game.

We can all make the same at Starbucks and not worry about having to crawl to 70% just to be at 0 commission. No bullsh-t CSATS’s or KPI’s either.

more sales cr-p...wtfc

I give Sales a lot of credit. It's amazing they're able to sell anything at all. Engineering hasn't delivered anything innovative or competitive in years. Worse, everything Engineering promises (which Sales often depends on to help hit quota) the product either gets delayed or shelved. It's amazing Sales can even sell anything at all in this environment.

@af Exactly the reason PIP's are few and far between.They know the targets are inflated.

Dell has clearly gone “all-in”

lol

Clearly you don’t understand how sales actually works. Dell has been issuing structurally unattainable quotas for years. Sales is being used as a financial lever suppressing variable compensation and protecting margins for Wall Street rather than fairly rewarding performance.

@ad says it all. 68%! So some years you did about half your job and some you did slightly over half. You stink

@ab

I’ve been here for 7 years and have an average of 68%. It’s quittin time! Check yo score at the door!

If you wouldn’t mind bending over, grabbing your ankles, and letting Dell take it from here…

That would be great. Mmmkay.

I’m not willing to just spread my cheeks and let Dell go to work on me. It’s time to exit the premises.

wah wah

Dell wants premier league players and results while paying tier 3 league wages.Or for the US NFL players and results on AFL salary.

Whine whine whine GET BACK TO WORK NOW!!!!

Ok young man. First things first:

This is a tech refinery not a whinery.

If you aren’t willing to be tied to your desk 40hrs per week, sell millions for the man, receive 1c on the $, and do as we tell you…..

Then cash your chips at the table and do something else.

The definition of insanity.

All valid points.

Only you can make that decision.

I feel like all in Sales needs to make this very decision.

I am being a SmartA$$, but you should ask Saleschat.
