Dell tells remote workers that they won’t be eligible for promotion


Report highlights big turnaround from Dell's previous pro-WFH stance.

Dell didn't respond to specific questions Ars Technica sent about the changes but sent a statement saying: "In today’s global technology revolution, we believe in-person connections paired with a flexible approach are critical to drive innovation and value differentiation." "We're being forced into a position where either we're going to be staying as the low man on the totem pole, first on the chopping block when it comes to workforce reduction, or we can be hybrid and go in multiple days a week, which really affects a lot of us," an anonymous employee told BI. Unnamed employees that BI spoke with showed concerns that the upcoming policy is an attempt to get people to quit so that Dell can save money on human resources without the severance costs of layoffs.
