The cracks are starting to appear in the software big time now. Broadcom took all the good developers and left the rubbish behind. In the products right now, bugs have started to appear that are bringing whole production environments down and engineerings responce is they are busy rebranding the upcoming products to Omnissa to remove VMware. This is just comical at best. Ben said that Omnissa is now a customer first organisation but yet when production environments are coming down daily, the response is rebranding takes priority. On top of that Shanker has decided to ki-l off the last remaining good developers in China. Looks like Bens vision is to completely destroy Omnissa and with the current management in place as part of the deal with KKR, the destruction is set to continue. On top of that, the documentation team is so bad that their solution to rebranding is to pull most of the customer documentation instead of correcting it to refer to the new company or a censored reference to VMware. Documentation is missing now and customers are raising cases about it. Additionally, engineering answer to rebranding the existing releases is to remove all the installers from download so after December 31st, only the newly rebranded release will be available for download. You literally could not make up this level of ineptitude.

I'm so glad I left this circus.
“Broadcom took all the good developers and left the rubbish behind.”
And you’re still there…………..
Things seem to be getting out of control in the corporate world. Many CXOs are resigning since past 2 years. One just went 6 feet under by a hit job today. United Health Care CEO. Things are not going to be pretty as the layoff cycle accelerates.

And that is why you pay for support, if it all worked out of the box, there would be no need.
Oh. Thanks for sending your best to VMware. The di-k su-king contest in VMware has reached epic proportions. The come is everywhere and it stinks to high heaven. This whole thing is just a classtar faaaak. In VMware we just had 3 releases to fix one bug. The customers are screaming. No one cares because the mantra is to ignore the customers and sc--w them.
What a shame. Documentation is like s-x. Even when it's bad, it's better then nothing.
Engineering are also not fixing issues either, all they are doing is fixing workarounds that are either regressing or conflicting with newer code. Sh---y developers.
