Missing the old days at VMware

Pros

this is for VMware, and my last year there was 2018. It is one of the best place I ever worked, with good trainings and good culture that it actually encourages its people to take PTO for refresh, missing the old days.

Cons

it has been acquired three times and now with Broadcom.

Pros

Great way to learn SaaS, product, GTM and sales

Cons

I had to work with a mental manager who was an H1B worker. ( inexperienced). @ VmWare who was sexist/racist - Lack of social / interpersonal skills with blowups or staring at me in a wrong way. This was bizarre as he was always hiding on zoom. Not all departments are this bad. This dept. prefered Indian H1B visa workers with no social skills. Horrifying! Reading some of the reviews appears there is racism by Indians @Vmware and part of the culture. Glad I am out of that developing world environment.
