Thread regarding VMware layoffs

Barcelona keynotes

In the last call among senior directors, they said within a week they would have more information.
VMware execs typically use Vmworld keynotes for mostly marketing BS, so it will be interesting to see what Octane will deliver. It sets the tone of what to follow

I hope the c suite stays in nice hotels and expenses world class meals and flies their private jets there, or at least first class. Yea, VMware explore in Barcelona is going to be very beneficial for the few who get to join this giant boondoggle.

Maybe they can fire people on stage.

"This is the least of anyone's worries right now."
Who the f you are? Their mother? Look if you don't have any answers there is no need to complain. People like you are why VMW died. In conversation, try to add value instead of commenting about your feeling or DEI garbage. Answer the question, or simply ignore it, stupid.

"The keynote will be like any other year's keynote."

In summary, uneventful and full of talk about capabilities that are already available from leading vendors in the space. Let's face it, VMW lost its leadership mojo long ago.

Zero benefit from this post.

The show will go on. VMware is not going away. Products still ship, and priorities are still managed. The keynote will be like any other year's keynote. Some random customer does not care if you have a job or not with Broadcom, they care if you are going to ship a promised feature.

The keynote will be about that.
