Thread regarding VMware layoffs

When is next layoff wave?

Title, when do we expect further layoffs? I am based in Eastern Europe if that helps. Also I am not seeing any new projects, we are mostly doing ktlo work which is not good indicator of future growth in our location.

VCF 9 release event is not like a folding iPhone model release event. Stop glamouring VCF 9 release. Bugs will come as usual like any other products. This time make sure to inject more bugs in VCF 9 for your own job security!

VCF 9.0 is a cluster fuukkkk. Everyone who have been coasting for decades all the DEs and PEs are coding now. I am not sure when this whole thing will stabilize to be even shippable. Probably the crowd is scared of getting fired after the release. This is getting very interesting.

next major layoff is around VCF 9 release.

So make sure vcf 9.0 is buggy??
if they fire you, su-ks to be them, if not, you create more work for yourself? (just joking, don't really do it, poor customers will suffer)

I assume there will be layoffs after SaaS offerings are shut down October 31, affecting the folks keeping the lights on there or currently helping customers migrate off. This is my personal take as I believe the company would see little value in “helping” customers post cloud. This is my current situation so I have begun to seek an exit by the time it does come down.

Any thoughts or predictions in this regard are welcome.
