Pros
The benefits and pay are good-to-great. You are "vested" into your benefits from day one, from means that THEORETICALLY you can start taking vacation and sick days your first week on the job.
Cons
This is the most disorganized and unappreciative company I have ever worked for. The mid level and high level managers have absolutely no idea what goes on day-to-day in the company. They make arbitrary decisions that negatively effect productivity, only to turn around and change these policies from quarter to quarter. Dell is mostly "organically grown" and has absolutely no kind of management training program of any sort- which means the culture of failure and mediocrity is passed down from manager to manager with no end in sight. If you are on a commission based pay, expect your quotas and pay scale to change unexpectedly quarter to quarter. Every time you get "promoted" to a higher division for sales you have a smaller account set and make less money. Management has no earthly idea of to fairly determine compensation and quota sets. The most entry-level positions make the most money 90% of the time, tenure gets you nowhere unless you get lucky and win one of the very few "good" jobs that open up.
