Just curious as lots of the woke gang said they surge on in Broadcom

I miss being called "privileged" on every single call.

Partaking in black focused events and discussions is a personal interest.

“ You personal interests are just that , personal.”

I didn’t know being black was a personal interest… I thought it was just a fact of life.

There was a veterans pod

There aren’t enough groups outside of work that fill the same need?

At VMware, the pods weren’t in the background, they were front and center on all hands calls and other group meetings.

You personal interests are just that , personal. The workplace isn’t for fulfilling your desire for hobbies or creating groups of people with shared interests which bleed over into professional life imho.

To each their own.

Both Hock style and old VMware style are not to my liking.

I love the down votes for the comment about vets pod and the mri scan. Didn’t know there were so many InCels and great replacement believers at the company. If you want a white POD move to India and start one.

Have they stopped the unconscious bias training ?
I refused to take that, it didn't go over well. Being forced to participate in a HR driven psyop under a puppet CEO (Raghu) who just rubber stamps all these Blackrock funded ESG programs does more harm than good

There was a veterans pod… is it woke to support folks that served their country? Op is part of a societal cancer. If you don’t like the pod stuff, pay it no mind. It’s that simple. No one forced anyone to participate. There if you want, ignore it if you don’t.

Betsy thought HR meant “Hippie Revolution”

Now you have loads of people who were hired based off their skin color and s-xual preferences vs there actual knowledge and skill. The result is few people are actually capable of creating anything, and just and project manage everything. This was one of the main drivers of VMware’s slow descent into mediocrity and irrelevance

Op should have auditioned for Baby Reindeer... Would have nailed it.

Has the Marxist HR department purged yet ? If not you'll likely see something like pod lite gradually being pushed on the whole company under some deceptive title. Or gradual changes to corporate training until it becomes full on same s-x (or however number of s-xes they determine exist) po-n

Get an MRI, you'll be able to see the abscess in your brain caused by obsessing over this topic.
