Thread regarding VMware layoffs

Is anybody else irrationally nervous about today?

I know nothing will change drastically right away, but I still feel like there's an iron ball in my stomach.

More anxious than nervous here; my irrational part is that, despite having no plans to stay, I still crave an offer to decline

I'm rationally nervous, not irrationally nervous.

Definitely not. I don't want to work for broadcom. I can survive until I get another job. BC does not define me.

Strange, but I'm excited to learn the total amount of my severance package so I can plan a short trip to Europe before I start my new job search in January 2024.

Also, once they open up access to our stock, I can raise some additional cash that way.

Head up and whatever happens just take it on the chin and remember it's nothing to do with you, your just a number.
VMware was a good place to work but not the center of the universe and there will be other opportunities

Wait till you realize they have sh---y benefits like health care. They kept that information hidden from us for a reason.
