Another poster added this and I’m reposting because it is the most honest thing I have seen on this site and clearly people agree as it had double digit likes before some site monitor, admin, or manipulator knocked it down.

You can expect Broadcom to put shareholders before all else, while lining top leadership pockets. Those lower ranks that continue to cling to their jobs will get some scraps until they don’t. It’s who Broadcom is. It’s who they have been under Tan’s and the board’s leadership. They are what ruthless businesses loved by Wall Street are. Have no doubt that Broadcom will absolutely reduce the size of its workforce beyond breakpoint because their goals are not to solve business problems, not to build great products, not to deliver new innovative solutions, and certainly not to contribute to the greater world good. Those are merely byproducts of making profit to them. With partners assuming nearly all responsibilities moving forward, Broadcom is cutting its costs and increasing its profit even more. Have no doubt that layoffs are coming when VCF 9 launches because no significant development will happen beyond it. The five (maybe less) year false update cycle promised is only in place to keep customers paying high subscription prices until they catch on and jump ship. Before then, Broadcom will use the profit acquired to buy another company and repeat the cycle.

My addition to above - only a bunch of quick talking sales and marketing execs will remain to take care of VMware to keep the cash flowing while the workers ranks will be wiped out. Workers should be looking for jobs and not waiting.

Why leave when every 3 months you rake in sweet sweet RSUs?
Just work till they don’t want you to any more, take your winnings and move on to other jobs
Would you look at that! Another post where manipulation is clearly happening. Hey admin and moderators! Why don’t you put a stop to Broadcom or whoever they have hired to mess with posts.
Yet another thread where the corporate overlords have balanced out up and down votes!
So for the record - F Hock +1,000,000
