Kay said the PC industry at large has been dealing with a series of shocks in recent years, making it hard to predict the seasonality of sales. If it continues to be grim, they probably will trim more because they really look at the company as a financial problem," Kay said. If they look at their projections and they see the revenue is not coming in, they'll just align the costs immediately to keep the ship right." "This is the latest brick to fall, but it's not a big surprise," Kay said. "They'll help us focus on purpose-driven work and to be in the best position to make the greatest difference for customers, Dell Technologies and each other."
