Thread regarding VMware layoffs

I was promised a letter!!!

I was promised by Betsy and Magoo that Octane would send me a letter today. What happened? Is the merger falling apart? Is this because of China? South Korea? Is it just really disorganized? Are they outsourcing all staff to HCL? Is the real close date November 26? Please help me understand the full landscape of this acquisition?

You can ask to be put in a priority list to get a letter, just call 650-427-5000

Is was promised this, this isn’t fair, blah blah blah. Welcome to the real world. If it helps you, think of yourself as Neo in the Matrix.

Your are a disposable widget to BC, get used to it. There are many more Broadcoms you will come across in your tech career.

That which does not ki-l you makes you stronger.

At a certain point, sarcasm is indistinguishable from legitimate.

Helps for someone to be real, get called out, then backpedal and say it was all just sarcastic.

I believe it's a troll post too that makes fun of people like @pqn+1p8yprBe for their over-the-top, drama queen responses. 🍿

I think everyone's sarcasm detectors need adjusted. Seems like a post poking fun at the other crazy posts here to me.

I wonder if the OP here will recognize if(when) they are axed that it’s likely mostly due to them and not ‘just a matter of acquisition’, it’s very likely this person is ignorant to their own failings and will learn nothing from this experience and will just bounce on to the next failure

stop the drama, did you listened well, it will be from mid- Oct. Do you know what " From " means???? as someone said....did you ever face a problem in your life???Knowing this is not even a problem.. It is just someone who didn't listen. Also, some countries do not allow this to happen before the acquisition ( like the UK - in the UK they can't announce it before the 31st of October)and if you are fired you will not receive a letter. Darling, I would totally fire you just because of your attitude and not listening

I see many of our positions being outsourced to HCL.

Which team?
