Pros

Great place if you're looking for work-life balance or settling down. Supportive team and genuinely good colleagues. Decent benefits and stability.

Cons

Stagnant career growth – Learning opportunities are scarce unless you hustle outside the job. The role itself won't push you forward. Upskilling is just for show – Even if you invest your time and effort to learn new things, the environment won’t let you apply any of it. Growth is blocked by outdated mindsets. Company-first, people-last – Organizational goals are prioritized while employee development is an afterthought. You’re a cog, not a creator. No promotions, no hikes – Recognition comes in words, not raises. Every attempt to ask is met with the same script: “Everyone is waiting for a promotion” or “We truly value your contribution.” Spoiler alert: That value doesn’t show up in your payslip. Token morale boosters – Don’t expect meaningful change. Instead, brace yourself for a thank-you email or an ice cream day and pretend it’s motivation. Good place to rest. Not to grow. Stay too long, and you'll forget what ambition feels like.

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.
