From a hardcore source HR is tracking down on people at 50 Franklin are working on some products like on AI or other products on the tech side and traveling to other cities without a degree. That's not fair to people have a DEGREE and they don't give them a chance. It's shows at 50 there's a lot favoritism, and I agree people without a DEGREE should not be working on these products and traveling too. PLEASE HR do you job and track those people.

I have a masters degree and I can tell you that it did nothing for my job. Many of my colleagues have no degree and they are going to make it to the next grade level before I will. I can't say it's for any reason other than they put in the work. I go to them for help and they are good people. If I could do It all over again I would not have went to a college. Unless you need to go to school to get a legitimate license, it's pretty much a waste.
We have a ton of consultants with degrees who don't know the first thing about the business. Sorry to say it but some people feel they should just collect a paycheck because they have a degree and this is exactly why you have companies willing to hire outside of that.
It's sort of like nurses (RNs/LVN/LPN) - some of them have 2 year degrees and some of them have 4 year degrees. The ones fresh out of school with 4 year degrees get bent out of shape when they find out that a nurse with 2-5 years of experience and a 2 year degree and making substantially more than them.. the truth is you have to prove yourself and you do not have near the experience needed to deal with many of the situations that might arise. There are certainly benefits to have the 4 year degree if you have your eye on a directors position but otherwise you are not as valuable until you have the experience needed to get the job done.
The people we are hiring with degrees either make it or they don't. You have to be good no matter if you got your paper or not. But to make you feel better we actually have a quota to force us to hire grads - we try to get the very best ones we can.
Like many other US companies Dell thrives off of government subsidies and welfare handouts. The RTO mandate is to keep the commercial real estate market from crashing. The stock market bubble and commercial real estate sub 50% occupancy will crash the economy.
The US is in 35 trillion of debt (neither political party bothers to attempt to fix the nation's pay day loan bubble economy), inflation is to the point that the government must ban birth control because younger people cannot afford children and they need to create more slaves.
Don't worry your tax dollars are hard at work subsidizing billionaires while the middle class continues to get wiped out. The great reset will happen soon. The only option left is to devolve into a war economy where the disposable youth and poor demographic will be sent to war while the 0% tax paying billionaires will thrive off of the death of the poor and middle class. Congrats we DEI'd (did earn it), Dead Economy + Inflation (DEI).
Make Americans Grovel to Government Again (MAGGA). Big brother government from both political cults will save you. Your life matters as your labor props up the bubble billionaire cash out Early economy. The 401k raid is the final blow to we the people and we love it and will worship those parasite who su-k all of the life out of us.
Focus on your opportunities and not your perceived disadvantages.
You are on a path to failure if you think like this.
You have value/worth. But if you can’t see it or harness it without the permission or approval of others then Mother Nature has a seat prepared for you at the extinction table.
A lot of folks don't waste time or money on degrees anymore. .Many under me have degrees and what did they get? Wasted time and debts for their trouble.. it's sad. Back in the day when I first started college my whole first year showed me that all of the classes were easier than high-school.. I wasn't going to get anything out of it but a late start into a career and loan debt so I ended it and moved on. If we hired people based on degrees we would have a team full of id--ts. Those without degrees know they have to work for their career - a piece of paper from indoctrination camp isn't going to cut it. If your identity comes from your degree, you will think you are worth more than you actually are and be desperate to cling to your special place of rank.. if you feel threatened by those without degrees then you are that person. Grow up and get to work.
In the early days, Dell had no degree requirements except for professional jobs like legal. Michael said it was because he didn't have a degree, and he believed a degree wasn't necessary to do most work. That changed in ~2005 when Kevin Rollins and the MBAs took over. The company soon shifted to MBA preferred for most decent jobs.
Company did well for many years without a degree requirement. The problem today is the executive team aka JC.
Qualifications don't matter at dell. The good old boys run the train off the rails by hiring their shockingly incompetent buddies and claiming the failures are because of dei (of whom they never hired, just look at the C-suite and VPs and almost all higher ups)
Soon all education requirements will be eliminated and insider middle school drop outs will be senior vp at Dell. By then the stock will be cashed out and the middle class 401k will be depleted. Only after they fail will they hire minorities and point the finger at them in a likely attempt to scapegoat.
This person is scared. Don't be a jerk to them. Apologies for how these lurkers offended you.
Do the right thing and report it with that link ... otherwise ER won't know. Thank you to who ever posted that link
Can you please explain. There is an Employee Relations group you can contact and you can fill out a form. They seem to be nice.
