Thread regarding VMware layoffs

Now I know this is not a company I want to stay with

The benefit of getting this BC offer and seeing how HT and his company truly runs, I will be looking for a new job and taking it as soon as I can.

Bummed I didn’t decline on the 27th but live and learn.

I got a transition offer. Honestly I don’t have any interest to work in this sh-t hole. Waiting for my severance. Till then learning new technologies for my next dream job.

I got an offer. It has a lot of RSUs id never gotten any w vmware yet. My manager did not get an offer but most of my team did as well.
We are all looking - the deadline passed and I didn’t have all my questions answered either - no reply from their HR until after the deadline passed

That in ans of itself is not an “epic” way to onboard a new employee and evidence in and of itself that this is not where I will further my career.

I’ve accepted another role
Best of luck and this is the most horrific thing I’ve ever experienced at work

This is not an airport, no need to announce your departure.

Private Equity is being decimated on purpose by China as US and China pulls apart. Decoupling. No one can do anything. BC and Dell who are practically Chinese companies will be sacrificed. This is just the tip of the iceberg. The pain is just beginning.

@nbp+1pA5HvOB - you sound a bit pissy and I think OP put in the post that a departure is eminent. You’ll leave eventually too. Or maybe not because your attitude fits perfectly with the existing culture. Actually, Betty needs you.

Then…. Leave. Nobody is forcing you to stay.

For anyone who takes pride in their work, who wants to be inspired and work for a company and a leader who is not only smart and capable but a good person….you know that this ain’t it.

For those I know well who also got offers, every single one of them is simply holding this to wait out end of year drag in hiring and will be first out in the new year

@OP+1pA5HvOB - You said what I’ve been thinking since the offers cascaded.

Who the f¥ck wants to be led by these awful leftover leaders? The place is wrecked. Offer or no offer - it’s still a bad outcome.
