Thread regarding Dell Inc. layoffs

Yes and they are hoping the company who pays their check stock chokes. Horrible, entitled folks. What they don't realize and will one day, Dell would have been better without the people whom:
Graduated college and expect 150k a year.
Graduated HS and think they deserve 150k at year 1.
Earn your keep. Corporations and the world owe you nothing. I know your parents said otherwise but they lied.

@an of course darling. Your word in gods ear.

if we're talking about Bob, I think we are the guy don't do sh-t

Yep. And most of those jobs are going, very soon. Like. Now.

Free coffee? Where?! Pre-covid there used to be but there sure af isn't anymore...

@aq I can't come to think of any other reason than pure stupidity since you aren't paid by the hour and absolutely nobody will thank you for it later.

Who gets free coffee?

stopped reading at free coffee

Left wing nut who posted this

Who let the Dept of Labor onto the board? I wish I got paid that match. I’m flat out with work 10hrs a day and span across countries and time zones. And to the guy working outside in the heat. He chose his career path. But I bet he’s got a union, gets a COL every year, banks weeks of sick and vacation and has a pension. The first $25 of his OT is not taxed (but my bonus is?). And OT? He gets paid for every minute after 40hrs at 1.5x’s and then double for working Fed holidays (which we work too-at normal rate). So he’s actually got it better than office dwellers, thanks to his union.

There’s a couple folks on my team who regularly take naps and do fan duel while in the can. That’s one to two hours down a day

Explain why some work more thank 60 hrs and weekends ?

Most roles at Dell require experience, expertise and strong work ethic. And those who bring this every day expect and deserve to be treated as valued contributors to the business.

There is an expectation of competent and fair leadership; visibility into performance (Score); competitive variable compensation and benefits; and a non-toxic, somewhat stable environment.

This is not unreasonable - it’s a fundamental expectation in tech sector.

Free coffee ?? Nothing is free at Dell except old sugar packets and maybe a Keurig pod from 2022 that fell behind the microwave.

Sanctimonious, holier-than-thou bull shhiit. Go back to your glass house. You're tone deaf.

@OP JC? is that you? Imagine if they get rid of you? They could afford to pay enough to make everyone happy.

I try to keep my actual work under 40 hours, but honestly, the real work takes maybe 1-2 hours a week.

The rest is socializing, networking with coworkers, and shooting the sh-t with older guys making huge salaries who barely do anything.

I make sure to take bathroom breaks every 15-30 minutes and coffee breaks every hour so I can hang around the kitchen and meet more people.

I'm a recent UTA grad and was told early on that networking matters way more than actual work.

So that's what I've been doing.

If you count networking as work, then yeah, I probably put in 40+ hours a week lol.
