Thread regarding VMware layoffs

EUC is a sh-tshow... cant even start a townhall on the time the invite is sent out for!

What else can be expected from the management of this company? Get your sh!t together already!

Sorry, I meant to say can't sell. It's late for me and this week has been awful. Our customers don't want to renew expiring contracts. That's just so frustrating.

"I can sell our services against these competitive offerings from MS."

Good luck with that. Recent history is not in your favor. It's a tough sell, for sure.

Microsoft is offering VMware customers 12 months of free Azure Virtual Desktop service in addition to Intune Suite promo pricing. I agree that townhall meetings are the least of our challenges. I can sell our services against these competitive offerings from MS.

"How will KKR reboot this business unit with this cast of clowns at the top?"

Don't misinterpret the KKR statement they'll keep the EUC leadership intact. Give them a couple weeks to meet with the clowns and heads will roll, starting at the top.

"What town hall was this?"

Nothing will change the outcome once the deal closes. Our leaders are unprepared.

Shankar describes his performance on LinkedIn as a 'Seasoned executive with a track record of leading high growth businesses' -- It's a total misrepresentation of the facts.

He failed to drive growth at Citrix and has done nothing meaningful to change VMW BU's slow decline over the years. We need bold leadership to turn around the performance.

The inept management of EUC town hall meetings is the least of our worries. How will KKR reboot this business unit with this cast of clowns at the top? I have no confidence in their ability to address the big challenges.

For example, they offer zero ideas on how to move past our flat growth performance and attacks on our market share by Microsoft (business partner / ruthless competitor). Sales have stalled and show no signs of a recovery. Meanwhile, marketing is clueless.

If unhappy, you can always join VCF and see their sh-t show. Also no one is begging you to stay. Feel free to leave. Free country.

He-l I’d settle for the freakin sales team to stop spamming every other EUC BU with all their stupid meetings and the leadership sending invites to the correct EUC all distro

In my experience having reported to SVPs at VMware they purposely don't start them on time because "they want to give people time to jump over" that being said it's d-mb to not have a waiting screen or countdown saying such
