Thread regarding VMware layoffs

A good start...

In alignment with Broadcom's acceptable use policy this channel has been set to read-only, and will be archived at a later date. The acceptable use policy is available for review in announcements-it...

Ok... maybe we are not starting so good here :)

They don't want you to believe it's a fun place of work.

Strict, top-down directions. Authoritarian.

"Stop talking and Get back to work you miserable sc***m" kind of attitude.

Anybody taking the Day 1 transition Webinar? The tone of the person conducting the webinar is full of disdain.

Hock promised Xi to implement the communist manifesto in the new company, that was the agreement that sealed the deal.

Interesting how they are breaking Broadcom’s rules by posting an internal, confidential document in a public Chanel. By their own definition, it should be a private Chanel.

I think it was correct to shutdown bc unofficial channel . People were all BS most of the time. Atleast they can focus on work now.

The channels being shut felt like a tight "Welcome" slap, and wake up to the reality.
VMware dream ends, BCom nightmare begins.

I personally found solace in the channel the past couple of weeks pre/post October 30th to find information, where leadership failed.

Logged in after hours, to see if there was any new information, apart from the vague basic bi--h emails sent today, only to see the channel shut down.

NO WORDS!!!!!

If your expecting anything good from broadcom, you will be bitterly disappointed. Leave as soon as you can. Most peoples twelve month plans are to get as far away as possible from hock.

Seeing the acquisition channel get shut down was "unsurprising" given some of the dialogue, but still a little bit of an "okay, we're going to operate that way now I guess" shock

Seeing Watercooler also shut down sends a very clear signal of "No f***ing talking at work"

Just waiting for all the little side channels to get iced out one at a time now

The unofficial Chanel needed to be shut down, lot of unprofessional posts on there as well as a lot of junk. I’m surprised it was not immediately deleted. USBenefits being shut down was a surprise since it seems to be the only way to get any kind of assistance with benefits these days.
