I find it hard to believe that other offices have to pay for their coffee. It’s always been free in Hopkinton. Not the best quality but you can grab and overpriced Starbucks coffee in the 20 minutes that the cafeteria is open three days a week.

Knowing Holpk it will be potluck. That’s where management wants you to be grateful for bringing in your own food and sharing it with them. And having to eat ut st your desk

Dell likes to call itself a family. So if anyone can bring extra chairs please do so.

Looks like pizza is the winner, but we have to wait till March 6th.

Had to come back in the first wave (sales) and I can tell you, it’s the most pointless exercise in the world. Traffic, gas, childcare costs, all to come here and do the same sh-t that I did at home. I talk to no one, no one talks to me, everyone actively avoids eachother. It’s miserable working here. Crazy how much it’s changed in 3 years.

I think the only place you don't get free coffee is Round Rock.

After spending over 20 years at Dell, following 10 years at HP, I can honestly say I’ve loved every part of working here. As I approach my retirement at the end of 2025, I’m reaching out to encourage all of you to do your best to be in the office on March 3. I understand this may be challenging for many of you, but I’ve been there. I was once a single mom juggling a job and caring for my kids, and I made it work. If you feel Dell isn't the right fit for you, then keep coming to the office until you find the perfect opportunity, which may or may not exist. Protesting the office return is unlikely to benefit your career—whether at Dell or elsewhere. Word travels in the industry, and reputations are built on how we show up and work together. So, let's be team players, step up, and make it happen.

We get free coffee in Hopkinton and always have done. Folks come up from RR and are shocked!

I know for sure in our office people will have to sit on the floor If any of Dells customers read this, expect reduced service from the 3rd.
