Pros

Excellent pay and benefits including immediate vesting in 401k, unlimited time off, etc.

Cons

Toxic environment. Individual contributors and front line managers are all jockeying to one up each other. Back stabbing and "turf wars" are par for the course. Each person holds on to their "IP" in order to maintain a power position. Very poor professional growth and advancement. Culture is uber-PC. We have "inclusion groups" for just about everything and god help you if you have opposing viewpoints.

Pros

Product support engineer can have good experience of full stack technical stuff from hardware to software application as well as advanced virtualization technologies. This is a very good place for improving technical skills.

Cons

It is tough for support engineers to cover the variety of VMware products by the limited number of engineers.
