not to be a party pooper, but i used to work in dell bayan lepas b4...as sales and also tech support....the pay is good(on par or even higher than other MNCs) but the working conditions there is really bad...they work you till you drop, literally...most people work there as a freshie just to gain experience and turnover's quite high, hence the mass hiring for techies at the mo...if you feel that you can take the sh*t the management dishes out, go for it...just give yourself a time limit of 2-3 years then cabut from that place as exp working there is quite invaluable...my 2 cents

job's pretty good here. those working on positions with shift work and/or OT will find that their salary can go up to almost 50% more at the end of the mth.
yes, most of the time, u really have to work ur @$$ off, but at least dell really compensate their staff on that. congrats to those coming into IT. IT has damn a lot of lenglui new hires lately. hahaha. |

errr, let's just say i dont say anything inappropriately. Besides, i have tons of friends there, NONE like it at all. I dont simply shoot, I make comparison with major MNCs in Call Center industry.
And stop shaking your head, it wont hurt MNCs to pay more higher to us, but you would be at loss if they pay u less, but u do more work... Pro's If you work on a public holiday you get 3x pay ( you say as if other MNCs dont do that ? ) If you work hard and that is really hard, you will get a chance to be a L2 or even a team lead ( there's a thing call queue/waiting list....and in MNCs there's not just a few waiting, tons of them ) Continously send you for training to know new products ( which big MNC dont ? ) You'll learn alot i mean alot in here so in future if you do resign your market value will definitely be higher ( that depends on your speciality, dont simply just expect company to pick you just because you work in MNC b4 ) Con's Dont' work there if you cant handle pressure ( people work is because of the training provided, experience and the pay, which company dont have pressure ? come on la ) Dell judges the Tech Support by sending out survey to customer's after they have closed the call, If customer's dont respond expect yourself to get heat from higher management If you can succeed here, I could guarantee that you would survive in any shithole company that you'll join in future If you are looking for a challenge then, this is the company for you Honestly their requirement is having excellent communication skills, nevermind technical stuff, they are gonna train you on that anyway ( Which call center doesn't ? ) Does matter if you are a god in technical skills but if you cant speak proper English, dont expect them to hire you ( which MNC call center dont emphasized that ? ) [/quote] This post has been edited by shaquenator: May 26 2006, 03:33 AM |

it depends very much on which department you are working in.
If you are in Technical Support.. you can earn a lot of OT... easily more than 1k every month.. even if you basic salary is already more than 3k.... If you are in IT... then OT will be less This post has been edited by neotv: Jun 29 2006, 08:12 PM |

erm. i've just accepted an offer at Dell as System Analyst in Cyberjaya. They offer me 2.8k basic + 150 fixed transportation allowance and im also entitled for overtime pay. quite interesting ha... we're the pioneer in Dell Cyberjaya. I only have 2 yrs experience in system administration, btw.
let me share with u the interview experience. but before that, i applied for the post thru jobstreet. then dell called me up and asked 5 technical questions over the phone. i managed to answer the questions and they set an interview appointment for me. 2 mat saleh interviewed me. well u just have to be urself. the good thing about dell is that ... well actually, the interview is for 'security analyst' position. i've explained myself well in the interview that my interest is more towards systems and networking. ive explained to em my plans n career goals. so, the beauty is that, althou i was interviewed for 'security analyst' position, they offered me 'system analyst', bcos of my interest in the subject, my advice, during the interview, ask em more on the job duties.. get to know what do they expect u to do. if u ask them good questions, high chance u'll get it. good luck to all of u out there |

QUOTE(babybiter @ May 18 2006, 01:59 AM) job's pretty good here. those working on positions with shift work and/or OT will find that their salary can go up to almost 50% more at the end of the mth. Hi there,yes, most of the time, u really have to work ur @$$ off, but at least dell really compensate their staff on that. congrats to those coming into IT. IT has damn a lot of lenglui new hires lately. hahaha. I soon will be interview at Dell Penang face-to-face. Interview for an IT Project Manager role...not sure about whether it is a senior position. Had been in Penang for two years previously, worked at Motorola and Intel. Now in Singapore. Seriously, how is Dell's working environment? Overly political? how is performance measure? How often is there bonus payout? How the bonus have been? How is the IT operations there? I have no problem with US MNC culture as I have worked in the US for more than 10 years. Just wonder how true they stick to the US culture there in Penang. As for work load, what is is it like? 120% ...in some other MNC, they'll make you do two person's job and have to compete with others...see who can do more than what they should and compensate you for doing more than your role. IS Dell similar? or is it just that they you have a lot to do that is related to your job responsibility. TO me, those are two different things. Any feedback would be appreciated! thanks |

QUOTE(Lazyboy @ Jul 13 2006, 11:15 AM) Hi there, What I heard is a bit political ..especially you in the managerial position. I soon will be interview at Dell Penang face-to-face. Interview for an IT Project Manager role...not sure about whether it is a senior position. Had been in Penang for two years previously, worked at Motorola and Intel. Now in Singapore. Seriously, how is Dell's working environment? Overly political? how is performance measure? How often is there bonus payout? How the bonus have been? How is the IT operations there? I have no problem with US MNC culture as I have worked in the US for more than 10 years. Just wonder how true they stick to the US culture there in Penang. As for work load, what is is it like? 120% ...in some other MNC, they'll make you do two person's job and have to compete with others...see who can do more than what they should and compensate you for doing more than your role. IS Dell similar? or is it just that they you have a lot to do that is related to your job responsibility. TO me, those are two different things. Any feedback would be appreciated! thanks Environment not sure, as I'm never work there before. |

Couple of months ago, DELL Malaysia has recently implemented their Enterprise Command Center (sorta like centralized helpdesk, consulting and links with multiple vendors for support services..) So, there might be a lot of jobs if you have multiple vendors hardware/software support experiences.

My friend went the interview last saturday at this EQ hotel for the call center specialist position. A lot of people went for the interview too.50 people in a group and have to pass a test (forgot what test is it), then select 10 people to next stage which is having discussion or some sort like that, then from that pick 2 people for the final stage. One of my friend fail the test and another friend fail to go to the final stage, but both of them got offer to have 2 months training which gives you rm500 per month and 3 months of testing working at dell for rm1450 per month. But my friends reject the offer. |

Oh,
that would be my secret I will let u know once after I decided to go or do not.. Yes I agree and I can expect for that since my current company really press me like a slave  but I'm getting accustom with the situation already, If u've experienced with manufacturing these are the things that u can't deny it, have to look at this on postitive perspective... ppl are demanding so company is getting pressure to cater the demand so they have no other choice except press u till the limit...base on my experience if u go with MNc company especially from euro or US they're really concern about time and how do u resolve the issue quickly.. btw they offer me at 5k ++ a month... |

They called me and conducted a phone interview. Well, they did say that if I didn't get a return call after a fortnight, assumed you're failed.
Well, I do admit the phone interview is easy ... have no chance to proceed to the next phase, so not sure with that. |

im working for dell australia, the most common type of complaint we get from customers is the language problem. most of the customers dont seem to understand the msian slang. customer care is based in msia, tech support is based in msia and india for the whole asia pacific region. if you want to make it to the phone based tech team and customer care, you really needs to be speaking good english, not just good msian english, throw away those slang and accent, be clear and precise.
with regards to the engineers and programmers, a good result for fresh grads and relevant experience. dont ask me too much tho, i'm still a fresh grad. |

I'm strongly agreed for that. They will ask you face-to-face when they call you for an interview.

QUOTE(bubur_caca @ Aug 10 2006, 06:00 PM) huh chatting session only....they don't ask any technical questions at all??...please advise They do ask technical questions during the phone interview. My friend told me, last time they ask him about the highest speed of DDR2 ram and the diffrent between DDR and DDR2. But I believe all the tech savvy like ur all should be able to answer it very well. But most of the time in Dell PG, they like to look for experience worker more than train a new fresh gradute. Unless the post u apply is tech support ( those handle customer call). From this point, seem like dell is not a good place to work coz they not really have the good career path for thier staff and thier turn over is quite high. |

DELL is a MNC Company, is a US company as well.
What they practice is also Americans practicing.. Quite flexible here.. CGPA is a ticket to come in.. but ATTITUTE is important.. always show u r positive guy... **PERSONAL PERSPECTIVE** |

Guess that your application at Agilent won't be a success. I think you need to put that aside. Sorry to say so ...
Regarding technical questions on database, you might need to read up some basic commands on SQL. |

They may ask you basic concept of database; distributed database, parallel processing, transactions, E-R diagram, bla bla.
DB configuration might not be asked as it varies on which DBMS the company used; Oracle, Access, IBM DB2 and etc. I think they might ask you on database model, database development life cycle over software development life cycle and bla bla. |

Do they tell you the scope of that Database Analyst position? Base on what I know last time they do have data analyst and database developer. Now thier data analyst change name to reporting analyst, since this post is more toward format report and analysis stuff.
For database developer it is kinda like a DBA, u should know most of the thing regarding to the DB. Below is the job description from dell website. -Administer, maintain and design Oracle or MS SQL databases. - Develop and design complex stored procedures, triggers, loaders, DTS packages, and implement extraction logic - Responsible for performance, reliability, security of database, database monitoring and tuning. - Provide technical assistance in identifying, evaluating, and developing systems and procedures as related to IT. - Develop technical solutions with the development team From my experience SQL syntax is slightly vary from diffrent DB that you're working with. I have working with Oracle, MSSQL and MySQL before. |

To enter dell? You need some one inside to recommended you the easier way. Else it will be hard unless they need urgent ppl. I agree dell paid low salary among the MNC company and a lot of pressure if you work in customer care, sales or technical support. Because their turn over is very high. Interview time, just smile a lot and remember to do some case study or review for your job that you apply.
Tips: How to get upgrade your position there very fast. Work there 1 yr then leave to another company work for 1/2 yr then go back apply again. If you lucky then your position upgrade very fast |

Same here, faced two lady interviewers, very stern looking and nope, didn't mention about salary and bonus because fyi, that will be determined by the HR department, not the interviewers. In the end, I didn't accept the job, I've heard about the gila-gila working conditions there from my friends there, I definitely wouldn't feel great2B@Dell.

1 month bonus if you're a permanent staff, contract workers I'm not sure. I still have the manual with me but I'm not a Dellian, I ffk them, not interested in their offer. They just gave me RM100 from my present salary and worst of all, 12 days annual leave.

1 month bonus is confirmed, then profit sharing through share options. For Cyberjaya, annual leave is 14 days, Penang is only 12 days, I dunno why but it's true, that's according to their manual. Biased, eh?

PBA = Paid Business Allowances for any kind of emergencies or stuff like that. You'll get around 10 hours for every month.
And There is the talent direct page on Dell HR page you can request to be relocated anywhere else in the world which you'd have permission to work in. For eg if you wanna get transfered to the US you'll need some relevant docs from the immigration and i believe the same goes through with some other country. |

But overall it a nice , simple job though their advertisement will said how good and technical you got to be.Most of the pioneer worker in Cyberjaya who start to work from the TMnet building and Prima 6 building before moving to the new permanenet building in IT department mostly gone and resign, those senior are the one with highly technical and experieces, hire during the early day by the US Manager.Conclusion for fresh graduate or those looking for lepak job, good choice. |

That is Inside Sales Representative right?
Maybe you can share some of your story why you don't enjoy working in Dell? |

I got an interview with Dell for the position of an Instrument engineer...the person who called me said he was going to send me an email with the details in it but I never received it.
Any idea on how I can contact him..Tried calling the HR but they said they can't help. |

Dell business is getting worst nowadays. Their main customer should be from corporate, not retails.
