Well you can kiss goodbye any thought of excitement or innovation for the foreseeable future. Raghu is totally lacking of excitement or innovation; he is going to be just more of the same half-baked approach we have seen for the last several years. And Sumit's promotion is completely baffling. The guy has built a disastrous Customer Success model that no one wants, and is grossly under qualified to lead the rest of the GTM organizations. This is not good; not good at all for the company, the employees, and certainly not for the customers. Something really smells fishy here.

yea Google buying VMware is very likely in my opinion.
Please explain why you think Google would do this.
Google buying vmware? Not a chance. They don't need this dead weight. Google and others are moving forward not backward.
