Home office at Dell: That’s what it’s all regarding

  • Home office or office? Dell employees have to make a decision.

  • Employees say that anyone who chooses the remote option has no chance of being promoted.

  • The new home office rules at Dell also led to systematic discrimination once morest women.

Dell employees have until March 7 to decide whether they want to work primarily remotely or hybrid. Some are now making harsh accusations once morest the company: The new home office rules are only there so that Dell can secretly fire people – especially women.

This is how Dell discriminates once morest employees working from home

According to “The Register,” Dell systematically disadvantages employees who choose to work from home. Anyone who chooses the remote option no longer has a chance to advance and make a career. If Dell lays off people, those working from home would have to believe in it first. And those who work remotely have to pay for team meetings in the office themselves, even though Dell flies most of the team in specifically for this.

Promotion only with office compulsory

“Choosing to work remotely actually means a standstill in career development,” The Register quotes a person who works at Dell as saying. Dell is moving remote employees to the hybrid group when they accept a promotion and requiring them to spend at least 39 days in the office per quarter.

Deutsche Bank is tightening home office rules

According to Bloomberg, Deutsche Bank has banned its employees from working from home on Friday and Monday in a row. The goal is to distribute attendance time more evenly throughout the week.

Women are particularly affected

Now many employees are of the opinion that Dell wants to provoke dismissals in order to avoid having to pay severance payments. Women aged 40 to 45 are particularly affected by the new rules, says a source. They are clearly misogynistic, including when it comes to the payment of bonuses. Dell is still a “boy’s club,” said the source.

This is what Dell says regarding the allegations

Opposite «The Register» When asked, Dell issued the following statement: “We have shared the updated hybrid work policy with our team. Team members in hybrid roles will spend a minimum of 39 days per quarter (an average of three days per week) in a Dell office. We believe that personal connections coupled with a flexible approach are critical to driving innovation in today’s global technology revolution.”
