Which were for you the Golden Years of EMC? I say 2003-2008. there was a lot of money, I did not need anything, my job was stable, my salary was sufficient to feed the whole family. Joe Tucci was the King of The Hill for me.. and now, look what has... — read more

VMWARE WFR is in the news again. Timing of WFR at VMWARE and Dell seem to happen at close to the same time. My buddy says Dell’s WFR started yesterday? Dammit! I was optimistic the decline in Covid would open up near term hiring. Anyone here... — read more

What now - does that mean that VMWare is going slowly to the dogs? I think not - VMWare still has people like Fidelma Russo and Chad Sakac!

What types of surveillance does Dell use to monitor their employees. Example. Mobile conversation recording? Zoom monitoring? I’m not paranoid, (we’ll maybe?). I didn’t do anything crazy, but really just curious. Please don’t reply if you... — read more

Does Dell HR give out salary info to prospective employers? I’ve interviewed for a new position and I’m wondering if they give that info out. I fudged mine just a little (seriously just a little) but now I’m wondering if they give that stuff out. I... — read more 

Seems we now get MLK day off this year.

Christmas is next week and people are still not sure if they're safe from layoffs in 2020. Imagine how much you have to fail as a company for that to be true? And to think Dell was once known as a place to go if you wanted to grow your career. Well... — read more

Anyone have any insight as to when the company match will be reinstated? If it goes much longer into next year, that may be a big reason for a mass exodus.

Why no ask for candidates rather than hacking away at the workforce? Is there a financial or other reason Dell would rather push people out rather than ask if any want to leave?

Anyone hearing solid info. regarding lay-off this month or through the quarter. Did Dell complete layoffs announced on September or is there more to come?

Now that the dust of the first layoff has settled, I’ve been hearing some anecdotal cautionary tales from laid off peers that they did not express 100% satisfaction in their first TellDell. I didn’t do that first TD survey and was “randomly... — read more 

This can't keep happening. They remove one more person from my team and we might as well lock the door and throw away the key. I think that people who decide who to lay off have no idea what most of us are doing and what (and how many people) it... — read more 

When are the next layoffs in Dell ?

Worst graphics I've ever seen. Lowest customer attendance.

I'm ready to move on - after 20+ years at Dell/EMC I have enough savings to retire. But if you quit you get 2 weeks pay and they kiss you goodbye. Dell k–led the VSP program (Voluntary Separation Package), so there I am, working a little less every... — read more
