Pros

Ability to manage work/life balance. clear about what you need to do and how you will be compensated. With the right direct managers you get a chance to manage work and private life well, but especially with internal functions this is a lot harder. However they do give you a very good idea of what you need to achieve per quarter and how you will be rewarded. Good results are well rewarded, but there is always a lot of pressure to achieve your results. Furthermore there is a terrible admin/reporting load, which i have not seen in any of my previous employers.

Cons

No clear focused long term strategy, too quarterly/weekly driven. Too much focus on short term results.

Pros

Great teamwork in each group that I have worked in. It appears that management does everything possible to delay layoffs by saving money in other ways. The product designs are becoming much more exciting and competitive. Internal blog for informal communication between employees around the world.

Cons

Management seems to be slow to react to market changes in the world economy. All of the old senior management that made Dell what it was have been replaced. Now, the replacements are leaving. Very limited technical training for the job.

Pros

You have a somewhat standard industry wage, not too good, not too great. You do get somewhat to choose your hours, that depends on your operation. Some of the people you work with are friendly and nice, but some of them can also be jerks. You can surf the Internet at work. Some supervisors are friendly and helpful. You get a MSDN subscription as a technician with Dell.

Cons

Not very stable, was laid off after a year of service. In fact, the whole location was laid off. Some supervisors have little or no business being supervisors. No real training other than Dell specifics, which is pretty useless for elsewhere.
