Dell has a talent to do the exact opposite. HR should hire your service. But they would fire you since they wouldn't like your advice.
For the defense of big corp, finance is often told a figure as to how many in percentage to layoff. Not much more, not much less or you get added to the list.
CEO? He also has to follow orders.
Who's to blame then? I wonder.
The practice and coordinated moves in the tech industry, and beyond, consistency in the pattern observed (and attested so broadly) led me to believe it is well intentional. Instill fear and anxiety to those who are left so that they stop claiming they deserve a significant raise. Will figure out how to innovate once we've regain control over the main cost: wages.
- kqr 3y agoFrom what I understand, the modern Dell (much like many airlines, for that matter) is in a sort of weird banking/finance business rather than technology and innovation. They are really good at managing capital and that is how they derive much of their profits.
- hirako2000 3y agoYes. And while Starbucks offers a decent service, Dell's has rather become absolutely mediocre. I'm not even sure Dell has been that good at capital management as of late. His last good shot, and an amazing one, was to buy out his own company at a much undervalued price, with plenty of financing support from investment banks. 10 years ago already.
