I’m on this site because I like to see the car crashes made by Hock.

Woman, why should I deal with your problem?

No one is asking you to!

As more customers stay away from BC, HT need to cutdown employees faster. Stock price has to go up. I know most of the employees are just hanging around in BC since Tech job market is very bad out there. 100+ applicants for every position.

"Why are you still here? This site is for those who fear of being laid off. Once you left, let it go. Move on with your new life. It's bad for your mental health to cling on to hate."

I left BC almost a year ago, for a new role at another name-brand tech company. I keep an eye on this site to understand when RIFs are happening to which teams, to help me recruit BC personnel for key roles in our organization. While there is certainly a lot of baloney posted on this site, there are occasionally a few gold nuggets that are very insightful.

I am absolutely not clinging to hate. Just the opposite > I LOVE BC because you create mass-anxiety in your employees which makes my job to lure them away so much easier (even with the RSU golden handcuffs).

"I’m still at VMware and hope Hock fails. Deal with it."
? Woman, why should I deal with your problem? You're the one who are angry. I'm just feeling sorry for your situation. You're mentally abnormal.

HT and Wall St could care less about the VMW assets as long as they make their money.

Yes and hopefully that period is as short as possible so HT has to keep chasing the white dragon and his lifespan will be shortened accordingly.

HT and Wall St could care less about the VMW assets as long as they make their money. Same thought applies to all the RSU wh--es over there

Great news !!. HT ruined American Tech industry and American jobs. Karma is catching up fast. HT has to retire soon and go fishing in Malaysia. Stock price has to go up so cut down more employees soon.

Broadcom has advanced open-source virtualization alternatives to VMW by decades. For a long time, many large enterprise CIOs willingly paid the 'VMware Tax' on their data center infrastructure. Now, HT has convinced many to abandon high-priced VMW software. This is progress, and the IT budget for many will be realigned accordingly.
