Pros
The expense policy was generous. The team was mostly full of nice people and the line managers were generally good.
Cons
The changes post EMC acquisition were chaotic, with Dell taking over a lot of the organisation. Culturally Dell seemed very top down and I didn't sense any desire for anyone above local management to listen or care about what IC though. Dell also seemed to struggle to execute on anything other than volume hardware sales. The pay and promotion structure was very rigid in consulting/services. You have to be a flight risk to get a promotion and pay is below market rates unless you come in on a high salary, especially in roles involving skills outside of the Dell portfolio. Aside from expensive laptop, there was a dearth of tools and internal resouces available. No labs to let people experiment and you had to fight super hard to get access to non Dell training.
