Dell Technologies is the latest technology company to announce job cuts, saying Monday that it will be cutting about 5 percent of its workforce, or about 6,600 jobs.
According to a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing, Dell will cut 5 percent of its global workforce to respond to a “challenging global economic environment.” Co-Chief Operating Officer Jeff Clarke said in an email to employees that the company is facing market conditions that “continue to erode with an uncertain future,” which will require restructuring the organization and letting some employees go. “In the coming days and weeks, you’ll begin to see a series of changes — some resets — across the organization to better structure us for the future, to better collaborate, reduce complexity, increase speed and to accelerate innovation,” Clarke said in the email that was included in the SEC filing.
Dell is the latest company in the technologies industry to announce layoffs. PayPal and Workday also announced rounds of job cuts last week, eliminating 7 percent and 3 percent of their workforces, respectively.

It’s not a win
The only people I celebrate losing their jobs are government employees and diversity department types

The business stuff I buy from dell is about as solid as any other make.
I’ve been hearing that PC and laptop sales have crashed recently, even through the Christmas season. They’re a bit late to action.
My eight year old computer still does everything I need. Recent advances have not yielded either a more useful computer or a new killer application that only works on new computers. I’m not surprised that computer sales aren’t robust.
“I didn’t realize Dell was still a thing.”
I have a Dell laptop, bought four years ago. Excellent machine.
Where I worked until 2016 had a deal with Dell and got all their machines from them. The always worked well. I just hadn’t really seen them much since then.
Microsoft is working on Windows 12, not 13
You’re getting a pink slip dude!
Thank you for the correction. Sarcasm is beyond a literalist like you.
