Thread regarding VMware layoffs

This is not working!

There will be more cuts and more cuts after that and so on until they lean out the operation. Unfortunately, the fact of the matter remains: most of the people who contributed to the real talent have already left a long time ago. The management has failed in providing leadership or improving our product and value to the customers. Instead they have hired and promoted individuals in management positions who do nothing but put fear and disappointment in the mind of individual contributors instead of addressing the real problems. When will this end? KKR needs to realize they need to address the problem with management in a meaningful way or risk damage to their investment. This is not working!

The board doesn’t know how to set technical direction. They are overpaid useless organic matter.

VMware was adrift.

Remember our CTO and his major insight about unifying logging frameworks. Ha!

We were adrift, now gobbled up by an a-hole, but an a-hole that knows how to get shït done.

So many tech companies are such sham. The funny part are the middle managers who remain, what a bunch of useless türds who are way over compensated. They should all be fired. I’ll report straight to HT thank you very much.

So I guess there is still a bunch of DEI hires hiding out or is it that everyone knows it was Betsy and Raghu that made this happen, I say Betsy first because all Raghu did was nod and say something like 'yes she/her Betsy, may I have another' while rubber stamping the entire woke disaster.

Rahul is responsible as the CEO. But CEOs serve at the pleasure of the board of directors, who represent the shareholders. The Board was accountable for choosing (and then keeping) the CEO

Explain why VCF 9 has more features than Ragoo Pet G era. They had 41K employees.

Oh wait, the 41K was busy doing woke stuff.

Is there anything in Trump's exec orders that would permit action against those who demolished the soul of VMware? The corporate execs with their BLM flag waving, Alphabet Crew loving, White Supremacy fear mongering and Mandatory Corporate Indoctrination training i.e. Unconscious Bias Training and po-n videos ??
All of which was forced upon the company and directly resulted in the end of my long-term tenure
