Does anyone know what the current UK severance package is? Someone affected recently maybe? Thanks for any info.
MORALE
Funk & Wagnalls define Morale as: "Shared confidence and enthusiasm among group members working toward a common goal". On the Fujita scale...where do you think Dell fits in the overriding corporate world?
Dell Nashville IT let go
I noticed the whole desktop support team in Nashville has been let go as of today.
Schmoock! What do we know?
I’m not US based so don’t know very much about this guy, his past stint in Dell. However I’m hearing he’s the grim reaper, hatchet man who’s turning the sc--ws and just about to crank things up that bit further.
What happened to Travis
Why was he fired
14th
Folks I’m hearing a lot on the grapevine around 14th of September. From what I understand the higher ups have codenamed it “apocalypse day” Apparently India and the states will be hit most. CloudIQ is meant to be getting another round to as they... — read more
September 14th
September 14th is meant to be catostrophic. Good luck all. Hold your loved ones close. I know I will be holding
Dell OKC
does anyone know if that site closed? The entire medium business division was axed which was around 50 employees
FINALLY! GPOD NEWS!
No HR meetings on Monday in the USA!
MD getting praise for Trump accounts
Does he not realize that the only reason he has billions laying around is us, his employees? The least he could do while soaking up all this praise is thank us for making him so wealthy. I mean good leaders know it’s their teams that do it,
Lawsuit
I honestly find it hilarious when I see and hear coworkers talking about lawsuits and how “someone, somewhere” is going to do it. Basically, someone else, not them. They don’t have the cojones to stand up themselves; they need someone else to step up... — read more
US adds 162K in August, smashing forecasts yet Dell canning left and right
Obviously things are good in the US with this many hires last month yet Dell is in another major canning spree... We continue to do great numbers too quarter after quarter. Makes no sense other than MD getting bad advice from JC to cut cut cut. I... — read more
H1 FY 2028
If, globally, most sales reps fail to hit their quota, will Dell still increase targets again in H1 FY28? If the majority of us are missing targets because expectations are unrealistic, what justification is there for increasing them further? Could... — read more
Pay peanuts, get peanuts
You can’t continually increase targets to levels that are perceived as unachievable, while putting commission behind a 45% attainment threshold, and expect motivation and performance to remain unchanged. At some point, if the majority of people are... — read more
"Let's Play" who has the largest quota!
Plus tell us the % over your last quota.
Payback is crazy
Hit 92% of my target, generated 700k with of revenue for this company, but I owe 2k back???? And MD wants to walk around RR3 asking about kpis and sh-t? go to he-l
OEM
OEM got hit today
Dell Ireland - next round of layoffs?
Does anyone on the inside know when the next round of layoffs will occur? I know it's constant but it's not every month. I know it's soon and this side of Christmas but does anyone know when?
Dell is an absolute shiithole company!!
All these layoffs are unnecessary. The only reason they're doing it is to keep artificially inflating the stock price. Greedy mother F@#$&@$!!!
Paid on bookings, what's the catch?
When I heard Dell was moving the payout from invoiced to bookings, I thought, “What’s the catch? This is too good of a move — and for once, it actually benefits the people doing the real work.” Just got back from vacation, saw my new target… and now... — read more
If you don’t like your job… quit!
A lot of people stay in jobs they don’t enjoy because they’re financially tied to them, even if they dislike what they do every day.
The positivity challenge
Everything is always doom and gloom here. I'm trying to find something good to say to shake things up a bit, but I'm coming up short. Anyone got anything?
Severance payout
How long does it take to get severance payment once papers are signed?
F you Jeff Clarke. This guy is an id--t
Jeff Clarke needs to get kicked out. He is a an a--hole. No strategy, only here to make money. He is Michael Dell's right hand man, but Michael needs to kick him out..
New target in eu inflated 300%. Only have 30% pipe coverage.
We received new sales ISG targets. Country in eu. The increase is over 300% from last relevant H. Plus nobody has even close to 100% in the pipeline. Myself only had 20%. Which means the best I can hope for is only 20%. Motivation has dropped to... — read more

WFR in Dell IT, to be reduced by 40% by Jan 2027 end
After "successful" rollout of ODW and "well tested" SDD framework making Dell engineers redundant, a big WFR coming up under Rob Mason's org starting from Sept and will go on till Jan end. Though what I heard is for Rob Mason, the whole of Dell IT... — read more
It's happening
"Skynet became self aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th". (Couple of days ago) This was once science fiction. A.I. is the birthing canal. Dell has found iut they no longer "need" biological humans to survive. We are all...expendable
Tell Dell
First time in years I have heard NOTHING regarding Tell Dell results. Don’t get me wrong, I know the report if phony but usually the HR cronies are able to muster up some sort of positive spin on abismal results. Looks like this year there was... — read more
The lost cause
I have no hopes for tomorrow. Dell has successfully gotten rid of the people who could fix things, and this leadership is only focused on their own pockets. There's no saving this.
Earning tomorrow
500 call or 400 puts? =D
reductions
anything happening today? last day of the month!
Bounty?
Do you think HR (or whoever) that makes the layoff decisions gets a bounty (bonus) for every life they ruin? Just askin'.
Never been part of a dreary and dismal company like Dell
The stock is soaring. You’d expect the attitude to be high energy and people to be in full support of the company. You’d expect to see new products going to market, more hiring, more bonuses, more investment in people. You’d want free thinking... — read more
Ireland Layoffs
What is going on?? Every week people are being tapped. Zero morale left onsite. Limerick has lost it's buzz entirely. Everyone fretting. You can feel the damn tension in the air! Dub & Cork are ye in the same boat??
How far has Dell fallen when even "The Zuck" seems like a good guy? :D
