Providence RI
Hiring twenty New mangers and firing 15 employees here in Providence RI. I have three managers for just myself. Unbalanced much? Overseas workers have no knowledge or training but they're cheap.

Nashua - Equallogic
Director from Round Rock at Nashua on Tuesday/Wednesday. Friendly visit or layoffs?
Dell certainly knows what is good for morale
We somehow got used that Dell is quarterly oriented firm, and to see many of our colleagues lose their jobs, usually by the end of fiscal year, but waiting for reductions this year is almost unbearable. This merger uncertainty is taking too long.
Are we still clueless?
We have been waiting this news for almost a year, and now when the layoffs in Dell are officially confirmed, no one seems to be sure when the axe is coming down, or which sites will be hit. And numbers I hear vary from 2000 - 3000. Has anyone got... — read more

Major Job cuts in supply chain, marketing and general & administrative divisions
About 2K announced, with attrition will be closer to 5K, plus they will continue to cut into 2017 - nothing is stable about dell now, VMWARE, EMC, Pivotal, you name it, it's all so unstable right now. Plus, let me tell you, that mountain of debt is... — read more
Michael Dell took his company private so he wouldn't have to report results
This means he no longer has to bear the criticism of being a terrible CEO. Private or not, he's still awful. Swainson was just a highly paid lackey. But he did bring on ridiculous people from CA. The whole DSG operation was run into the ground -... — read more

No Ownership
I really could not stomach working for such a large organization where all the ownership is vested in one person + his financial investor. Why do they have a problem with the staff having even some small share in the future financial success of the... — read more
Quest Mistake
The Quest acquisition was a mistake from day 1. Swainson had no intention of trying to grow a software business at Dell any more than he was able to grow the software business at CA. It's a shame that his incompetence and the incompetence of his... — read more

Working at Dell
I left Dell in 2015 after 5 long years there. The company was just too big for me – I felt I was making only a marginal impact no matter how hard I tried. Dell is highly matrixed in every aspect, especially when it comes to making decisions. It took... — read more

The PC Market has it's worst year (2015) - but 2016 will be even worse and you can expect layoffs
Dell is not immune and things will get much worse on the PC side - I know they are shifting things more towards software and services but the PC side will continue to bleed. Austin continues to struggle and things will not improve in a long time - we... — read more
