Dell Computers. Well.......
Warehouse Stocker/Computer Parts Installer (Former Employee), Austin, TX – June 14, 2013
Pros: co-workers were nice, dealing with computer software and gadgets, food truck, learning more about computers and how to assemble them
Cons: shoddy management with the temp agencies that hire through dell, the risk of being laid-off
Good co-workers. It's fun to communicate. Some co-workers were mean and disgusting. While most of them were friendly. The management were swarming like flies. Nothing bad about the place, except we were just temps that turned permanent workers. Most of the guys were let off their temp agencies just because of the overload of workers that compensate – more... their hiring process.

Most of the time, it's hard to get onto a temp agency and work at Dell with that. Spherion was the temp agency I went through and believe me, it's like being in career school all over again. Paper work was like being in class. Most of the time, they will guarantee a full position if you ask to be permanent, It depends on how you work and if you are productive for them.

I learned that it's not easy being a full time staff there in their warehouse. Once you become a permanent worker, there is no turning back.

I have nothing good to say about how management works. They were shoddy and unreliable when it comes to helping you get onto Dell Manufacturing Warehouse permanently.

Co-workers were great. They were like family.

There was nothing very hard about the job since I know about technology and art.

The food truck, the computers, the operating systems that Dell runs. I have a Dell right now as a matter of fact. – less

Dell management is archaic

Pros: work from home
Cons: almost no benefits
Dell managers need to improve. There is a lack of confidence between managers and employees. Authoritarian communication style.

Professional, fun environment
PG Development Technician, Portables Lab (Former Employee), Austin, TX – June 3, 2013
Pros: work environment
Cons: outsourcing ultimately lead to being laid off
A typical day did not exist at Dell. As products approached finalization, the workload ramped up. And a diverse range of activities could occur on any given day depending on where we were in the design cycle. Management was always professional and courteous and maintained an "open door" policy. Co-workers were all like-minded individuals interested – more... in problem solving, learning new skills, and having a project to work on. The hardest part of the job was when things got extremely busy but we all just stayed levelheaded, put in a little extra time and we got it all done. There was no single most enjoyable part of this job because, as a whole, it was the perfect environment. – less

Fast paced environment and challenging.
Retail Inventory Senior Analyst (Former Employee), Austin, TX – June 1, 2013
Pros: good work/life balance and freedom to improve my job
Cons: pay was below the level of the job.
In this job I was allowed a great deal of freedom in improving the process associated with the job. It allowed me to greatly improve my skills with MS Excel, Access, Photoshop and VBA programing. My manager was very supportive and open to new ideas. The team that I worked with meshed well and we were able to accomplish many things with a small number – more... of employees. The hardest part of the job was dealing with the constantly changing sales market and the fact that I had to build all of the software tools as they did not exist when I started the job. I was able to improve process time by 68%. I enjoyed the amount of freedom that I was allowed to create new processes and improve the productivity of the business. – less

Dell is a great place to work, but prone to career stagnation
ProSupport Technical Support Representative (Current Employee), Nashville, TN – May 28, 2013
Pros: great job working with employees, awesome corporate culture
Cons: prone to career stagnancy.
I can't say enough kind words about the corporate culture at Dell - they've given money to employees affected by natural disasters, gave me paid leave time when I needed to take the first quarter of the year off to have surgery and recover, and in general are a terrific company. The problem is that within my department it is easy to get stuck in the – more... same position for multiple years. There are few opportunities for advancement and it is difficult to take one of those roles due to how many employees are vying for the same spot. Also added to the mix is the fact that phone support is limited in what it can do with regard to a customer's system. I personally can work with Group Policies and Active Directory, but our hands are tied when it comes to supporting the customer when they have needs related to those areas. We only recently have been able to officially help customers with malware removal, despite every technician on the floor having the skills and the tools to do so. – less
