Dell ends work from home for global sales team: Read what the company said in a mail sent to employees

Dell has ended work from home for its global sales team. The company is asking employees to work from the office 5 days a week, starting September 30. Dell has sent a memo to the global sales team, requiring them to be in office from Monday. The memo is titled – “Action Required. Return to office, return to winning and taking share”. It states “..starting Monday, Sept.30, the expectation is that ALL Global Sales team members who can work from a Dell office be onsite five days a week, regardless of role”.
However, Dell employees are not happy with the return to office push. Criticising the move, a user wrote on Reddit “Dell needs to not do this. They’re already shit with the staff they have. God help them if the remote employees quit because of this.” Another user said “This is a layoff round. They are trying to get people to quit.”

Here’s the full text of the memo sent by Dell to its employees

Hi Team,
This sales force has a culture of winning and a reputation of outpacing the competition. We are the best in the business! That doesn’t come without dedicated focus, perseverance and grit. To uphold this legacy, we must continuously work at it. To grow faster than the market and take share, we must always be sharpening our edge.
The Sales floor is a unique environment that combines high energy with a culture of collaboration and continuous improvement. To harness this energy and grow skills, we believe our sales teams need to be together in the office. Additionally, our data shows that sales teams are more productive when onsite.
With that in mind, starting Monday, Sept. 30, the expectation is that ALL Global Sales team members who can work from a Dell office be onsite five days a week, regardless of role. Field sellers are expected to spend five days a week with customers and partners or in a Dell Technologies office. Field sellers who can’t go into a Dell office should prioritize time spent in person with customers and partners. Remote sales team members who can’t go into a Dell office should continue to work remotely. More communications pertaining to remote workers will be sent in the coming weeks.
Yes, this is a shift from current expectations. The industry and technology are moving fast, the opportunity is enormous and we need to ensure we are best positioned to seize it. We know situations will arise when you need to work remotely. This is expected, but working remotely should be the exception rather than routine. We also know many of you have organized your lives around three days in the office and you may need some time to make new arrangements.
Global Facilities will continue to assess neighborhood capacity and will address any future needs.
When we’re not traveling to meet with customers and partners, we are in the office. When you step onto the Sales floor with all team members onsite, the energy is amazing – it’s dynamic and fast- paced. Sales managers are actively engaged on the floor, not from a distance, providing real-time feedback, guidance and support.
Our strength lies in a culture of collaborating, winning and celebrating together. As we enter a new Al world, in-person human interaction will be more important than ever.
Let’s go win, outpace the competition, seize every opportunity and take share!
