VMware Reston reviews

- Pay scale for commissioned employees has been completely rigged against them, with ZERO explanation. They pay you at a rate of 0.75 until 50% of quota is reached, and only pay on 60% of vSphere sales. Despicable. Even worse is how they tier Inside Sales reps- they weigh them to the tune of 70/30, meaning 70% of commissions paid are sub 100k business, only 30% of your variable is paid out above 100k business. Completely stacked to position you to make less. This leads to a majorly demotivated workforce. There's so much tension and angst regarding these comp changes its palpable, and it's forcing people to leave. Completely and utterly disappointed leadership would allow such draconian changes that directly affect them and their families. -Leave policy for all ISR's completely changed from "unlimited", gave employees no real "bank" of days off to compensate, and now are considered hourly employees. Wonderful. - Zero guidance or direction for career advancement. Good luck.

very stove-piped product management (at the time, <2015) seems to have gotten better - but it's a consequence of acquisitions. Many people complained of "popularity contest" type of atmosphere... This can be rectified by being outgoing and engaging with colleagues. Cloud stragegy.
