Dell recently announced the lay-offs of more than 8,000 of its North American workers. At the same time, Mike Dell also announce the company would purchase $70 million in Chinese hardware during 2008. As well, Dell executives have a salary and perks package that exceeds $60 million.
Do you find this disturbing? On what level? Social ethics? Business ethics? Employment ethics? Shareholder responsibility? Other?
Did you ever buy Dell products or services? In what ways will Dells treatment of employees influence your future acquisitions?
