"Insider" Profiles On Dell, HP, & Compaq From
VaultReports.com
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 18, 1999--Today VaultReports.com
has released its updated company profiles on several major computer
hardware giants.
VaultReports.com (http://www.VaultReports.com), the leading provider of
"insider" information on corporate America, takes a look inside tech titans like
Dell Computer (NASDAQ: DELL), Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HWP), Compaq
(NYSE: CPQ), and Gateway (NYSE: GTW) to find out what really goes on
behind the scenes.
The reporters at VaultReports.com spent over a year interviewing thousands of
employees at high tech companies and have posted their results online.
Employees were overwhelmingly happy with their jobs, citing excellent pay,
benefits, and a lax dress code. However, the computer hardware industry is
not for everyone, as employees complained of long hours and a high stress
environment. For those willing to grind out the long hours, the industry has
proved to be exciting and extremely lucrative.
The web site is stocked with revealing quotes recently gleaned from
employees, such as:
-- Dell Computer (NASDAQ: DELL)- "Everything moves quickly here.
Working at Dell is like jumping out of an airplane with your hair
on fire. We call it Dell-ocity."
vaultreports.com
-- Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HWP)- "The key word here is
informal...Even the CEO has a cubicle. He has a real big one,
though."
www.VaultReports.com/links/HewlettPackard
-- Compaq (NYSE: CPQ)-"Compaq has a culture that employees have
grown to love. It pays its people well and rewards successful
ones. It is definitely a team effort, with everyone pulling
together."
www.VaultReports.com/links/Compaq
-- Gateway (NYSE: GTW)- "Monthly profit-sharing checks are great and
come in handy around Christmas time, when the checks tend to be
larger due to increased sales volume." The profit sharing makes
the employees, "feel like owners and not just employees."
