Germany, France, Netherlands; who will win the longest integration cup?

Almost a year and no Broadcom contract yet in these places…

Hundreds of employees have already been „voluntarily“ laid off. And paid off. They are lucky that they could escape this soulless sweatshop of Octane cult.

Exceptions are Ireland and Switzerland. Ireland has had smart corporate laws and low taxes and lots of good vmw people.

Bulgaria is in Europe.

Intel to get rid of Germany and Poland factories. Pentagon taking over Intel. Europe and US are moving apart.

Unbelievable isn’t it. The employment laws of some EU countries are a reason why it’s going to shi7. The people hanging on sitting at home doing nothing can’t be very good for Broadcom. All that money going to waste with lack of productivity. What a mess.

Europe is a total mess. That's why VMW never had more employees there than absolutely needed. Local sales only.
No strategy, no backoffice, no product development. Nothing. Because there is sub par talent, expensive people, and id--tic laws and regulations everywhere.

Exceptions are Ireland and Switzerland. Ireland has had smart corporate laws and low taxes and lots of good vmw people.

Oracle cloud AI spend all came from the deep state. The average enterprise is cutting back. Oracle, Palantir, VMware, Google will all be funded by the deep state. No need for stinking commercial business. The western deep state and chinese deep state are all tied at the hip. Otherwise they will not allow the chinese to buy VMware. Don't worry, they need just 2000 employees to server the deep state. Everyone else will be gone. Just like Tanzu and VMC they will keep saying these are great businesses even before they cut the employees by 90%. Customers are not d-mb. They have 2-3 years to transition out of VMware.

Thanks be to God I'm a Euro citizen where employees are protected. Culture, class and history. Oh yes.

Not living life in a g-n toting dystopia like a serf as those dopey Yankee poodle candies do.

Not hard actually

Las Vegas needs to start taking odds on this. How many engineers does it take to change a VM for a company in the S&P 500?

Nobody knows…

Danske bank.. peanuts.

This isn’t about growing a customer base or keeping customers, Hock will su-k out as much money from a few hundred slow moving customers and then once that is done, VMware will be thrown in the heap of dead tech companies along with the used condóms.

That is the plan.

This is the way.

Stop with your high and mighty attitude. Hock is here to fück both the customers and employees to extract cash and move onto the next acquisition.

Are you f’n blind?

“Sure, that’s why it’s so easy to migrate off VMware… not!”

Not hard actually. Happening in its thousands of vms per day in all hyperscalers. Block level disk copy then bounce vm at appropriate time other end. L2 extension or not either way customers are moving many per day. Search for Danske bank migration AWS. 17K vms, 1000 apps, 1500 employees trained. They just wanted the he-l off it. Many many more like it.

A VM is a VM and all the management stuff around it is just standard stuff.

Hock has got the customers by the bâlls.

Yeah @2gxt+1uudLlXa

Drawing a salary and doing nothing for so many months.. I couldn’t do it. It’s just weird.

Shows how the skills of VMware employees are so inadequate in today’s IT market they can’t find jobs as d hence just hanging in by a thread.

Georgia tech is not going to take any more china money. They will close their school in china. The Americans are finally waking up and smoking out the chinese from America. Hock will be shipped back soon. Sell Broadcom back to an American company.

This is the way!!

The chinese bots are back. China is a shitttt show. Real estate is imploding. Economy is imploding. All the rich people are leaving. Buying up every house for sale in America.

I am not sure how china is imploding but Broadcom china revenues keep going up. Irony is auditor PWC was blamed for the Evergrande demise. What a joke china has become.

The chinese will be put in camps soon. They are being smoked out of NYC mayor's office and Verizon and universities.
