Thread regarding VMware layoffs

VCF 9. Finally we delivered, with 30K less headcount

It's an old promise from 2012 by former CEO Pat G. Instead of delivering, he went to bloat the company and gave up to public cloud. One of the D-MBEST but KINDNESS tech CEO

Unfortunately, Pat had his mind set to positioning himself to lead Intel and wasn’t focused on VMware’s future at all.

@353 you're talking as if those customers don't rip off their customers too.
Good for your family. Continue thinking Broadcom is evil and home prices didn't rise exponentially.

@pb "It is just a way to keep the few customers left."
You forgot to mention that few gave $20b. On subscription. Far more than PG and Ragoon ever dreamed with 500K "customers" and 41K dream team.

@k7 for outsiders like you who don't participate in the actual development, maybe we should have changed the product name so you know it's not the same. But never mind, enjoy the RSU from your company!

We could deliver vcf9 with less 10K people.

But... how has it not yet burst already, given your 1000 predictions that it's about to never coming true yet? Meantime, thousands of employees and laid off stock holders make $$ by NOT heeding all your doom-gloom self glorifications. What a hobby.

So shocking to see more of the same "here comes the end of the world! Your stocks will be worthless, take that! Ha! Joy for me!" junk here, likely from the same ta-d who thinks she's Q-anon. And btw, Mark Twain never said that, look it up, all your phoney facts are never true. Now back to my barely-budging market holdings, ya poor slob. Know what Mark Twain did say? That Having NO money is the root of all evil. Pretty funny, ay? That's probably why you're constantly wishing for the fall, poorboy Q.

The circuitxxx breakersxxx are 7% 13% and 20%. I don't think people will be able to sellxxx their AI staaaks. The insidaaars are going to just keep hitting the circuitxxx breakersxxx. Individual investaaars may not be able to login to their brokaaaraaage accountsxxx.

Will there be a software glitch and they can't open the market for a week? The collapse is planned for Q3. Everything is going according to plan.

It took 3 manintanance releases to fix one bug. The shiiiiaattt that is shipped is so ancient and fragile and most people who knew the interworkings of this ancient iron age technology that is being shiiiaait wrapped and sent to customers are gone and more and more are gone. Unless the release hits the customers there is no knowing what will work or not. Agree the people who are going to deal with this stuff need to be compenstated fairly.

Be part of the tantrix club and survive. It is that simple. Not much work going on. Every quarter they get a budget for severance and they will just go down the list. Don't do work and sc--w up and get into unnecessary trouble.

Small town boy born in Malaysia got a scholarship to MIT and then went to Harvard and then through the sweat and hard work became the highest paid CEO in America. Zhina are you taking note? Then the boy became old. To keep him in high spirits he got a second wife as a handler. They made billions and donated all of it to charities and sailed off into an unknown island. The kids are not doing ok. So no one to take care of the estate. There are hundreds of such stories in the US corporate world.

The tantrix will eat this carrrrrcasssss for sometime but only the bones will be left in a few months. That is what the tantrix are good at. Then they will collapse the circus on the remaining loyal minions.
