Thread regarding VMware layoffs

How's your Saturday? Some of us in GS are working.

Close the Cairo office and force NASA to work weekends. Now the weekend is filled with scared, underqualified TSEs, Monday/Friday is understaffed, and "I don't want to work weekends" is the number one reason TSEs are quitting.

Great job, Hock! Once every employee is gone, just think of the boost in profits!

For F’s sake, find a new job. It’s been 6 months.

“ You got the RSUs, you accepted the money. You signed the contract. You knew this was the new norm. This was YOUR decision. Grow the fu-k up and accept what you signed up to.”

There are actually several folks who didn’t really get a choice. No RSUs offered, no option for severance. Instead, a letter that said this is what we need for the next 6-12 months. Comp won’t change. If you do not accept it will be taken as a resignation and you are not entitled to severance benefits.

How is that move of everyone to salary working out?

Don't worry it will be over sooner than you think, most customers are looking to move on from VMware after this sh-t show, layoffs will become the norm about every 6 months as the margins dwindle. Milk the Hock cow and find a new gig.

You got the RSUs, you accepted the money. You signed the contract. You knew this was the new norm.

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom - go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you." --Samuel Adams

You still have choices. Stay or go! If you don’t like it then leave. Many have already left and are happy with that decision. What are you waiting?
