Pros

Lots of opportunity for lateral moves. Good benefits. If you have a good manager who will fight for you during the annual review process, you can make a nice career at this company.

Cons

Lack of diversity. Still a white male dominated company, even after they were sued for discrimination against women. The culture favors aggressive type A personalities so if you don't fit that description it is unlikely you will be promoted. Also if you get a bad manager (there are lots of those at Dell) you will have a slim chance for promotion, regardless of how well you perform. Make sure you understand the grade level structure before you accept a position. It can be very difficult to get to the next grade level so negotiate it before you join if possible.

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.
