Pros

VMware used to be a very good company, with the acquisition everything has changed.

Cons

No work from home. Pantry used to be stuffed with food items, now we are left with only tea and coffee. There used to be lot of flexibility in the working style, now we have to go to office at any cost. No hikes. No innovation.
