Vantaggi
Nothing really to say, some of the co-workers are pretty cool that is about it.
Svantaggi
Worked in Austin office for about a year. Dell is inarguably one of the most notorous company to work for. Client laptop and PC division were crumbling at that time and moral was low. Argument and fight between co-workers are common as well as gossip. Even outsiders in Austin area know Dell is a "rough place" to work. In large corporations, certain amount of politics do exists to some degree and Dell is no exception but politics has run its course even at the lowest engineering level therefore you constantly work to solve interpersonal issues and rarely work on technical stuff. Firing is common, when people are terminated, the company directory displays them as "terminated" dragging the terminated employee through mud.
