Pros

At-market compensation, reasonably good benefits, globally distributed, always trying to change and sometimes succeeding at it. A large company that follows the rules one would expect a large company to follow.

Cons

Shortsighted. Doesn't stick with a strategy if it doesn't deliver a profit after two years. Layoffs are common place. Not really a technology company - they are a marketing and distribution company that specializes in PCs. Thinks it is more important in the tech world than it really is. Pending EMC merger has everything up in the air.

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.
