Pros

If you are a person that thrives in a competitive fast paced atmosphere then Dell is the perfect environment. It fast paced and there were always things going on , from trainings , vendor presentations, product launches and employee appreciations events. Also in sales at Dell, there were a variety of ways to make moeny in commissions and contest. So there was a incentive to work hard if money is what drives a person (which it is in most cases), along with that there was ample overtime opportunities. Lastly, there were plenty of giveaways, free gifts and perks that people got just for working at dell.

Cons

As with any sales position , it can be stressful trying to meet quotas. I would say the biggest downside of Dell specifically would be the scheduling. Being that computer sales can be seasonal, they never seemed to have the right amount of sales forecasted requiring massive amounts of overtime. To some this would be rewarding , getting all the hours you want means more money. For most it was awful, rarely getting schedule request approved due to overtime. Overtime was something that one would become aware of the day before it was mandatory or sometimes during a shift they would schedule mandatory overtime after your shift.

Pros

The people are the best part of this job. I have met so many amazing people in this role. Even some I would consider life long friends. I think the experience gained from this job has also been useful for any sales role you may need for any future endeavors in sales or the tech industry.

Cons

Upper management has made many changes to the compensation and the metrics which has for sure effected employee satisfaction. Turnover rate is insane as there’s a new hire class literally every month. Dell itself is running out of room and they are not making any new teams for the new hire classes which has left more tenured reps in a vulnerable position.
