Pros

Work from home friendly, decent pay (though others complained about pay)

Cons

Felt like I was going back to 1999. I was recruited quickly to work at Dell and only had one interview. The Dell recruiter talked it up so much that I ended up turning down another job offer for Dell. Huge career mistake. And the environment there was weird -- overstuffed PowerPoint slides, little accessibility, a lot of "that's not my job / not my problem." My division did not collaborate where it mattered. I rarely heard about how we could make things better for end users. It was always: "This is what [internal person] will want although we won't actually talk with them about it or try to make it better." I felt like the skills I came in with were diminishing just by being there, and I needed to leave to learn and grow with modern times somewhere else. I wish I never talked with that recruiter.

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.
