Pros

Fantastic company that rewards innovation and applauds extraordinary effort. If you are a bit more intelligent than the average bear and you're willing to work hard, then VMware is a place where you can have a big impact

Cons

There were really no downsides to wiring at VMware. The employees are treated extremely well, and its a culture of over achievement.

Pros

Innovative company--never complacent, always working to reinvent itself to add more value to customers and demonstrate market success. Very smart set of coworkers--top talent.

Cons

It's difficult to set priorities in this type of company. Every thing is now and urgent. Time to rethink is often ample, however, defining execution plan and executing are often rushed. Then we move onto the next bright, shiny object. Need more time to refine and optimize.

1. Good Pay and benefits. 2. Good work life balance (in R&D only) 3. Located in nice location 4. Flexible timing and some time WFH.

Cons

1. You will not be growing technically which is not good in long term. 2. Managers are immature and don't know how to handle team. 3. You will raise the ladder if you know how to do buttering.
