It's not as good as it once was

Pros

2-3 years ago I would've given 5 stars across the board. VMware was very employee oriented. I bragged as often as I could about how happy I was to be a part of such an innovative company with such supportive management. Work/Life balance was a concept I had never heard of and the growth opportunities were limitless.

Cons

Cash flow business model. That's the only thing that seems matters now. Not the years of hard work people have put into that company. Culture and values used to be important. Guess that's just the nature of the beast. They've really grown to embrace the devil that is Corporate America. I think it is safe to say that it won't be getting better any time soon.

Pros

Benefits and great engineers in the office

Cons

Office location is horrible, culture is getting a big hit and EPIC2 values are not there... New management is destroying the company and our products are getting less competitive (with a few exceptions). Customers are getting half-baked products and paying a fortune for it. Support by junior engineers is provided out of low-cost geographies.
