It is a good company in terms of technical research. Very vibrant and competitive environment. Lot of opportunities to learn

Cons

Management may not be the best you experience. Fun is limited by the amount of tech saavy guys present in the company.

Pros

If want to be in virtualization this is the place to be. Rock-solid products. Smart people. CEO really smart.

Cons

Working from a satellite office means you often get overlooked. Can't travel anywhere anymore due to cost saving measures. Mid-management make either a) no decisions or b) mostly stupid ones.

Pros

In sales you get to work with a fantastic product that people want. My peers make coming to work fun. We help each other learn and overcome obstacles. We're able to strive for over-achievement while maintaining a positive, light & fun work environment. Entry level management is supportive and positive.

Cons

Communication - VMware is not good at communicating internally. There have been a few occasions when sales learned of product releases from customers. Processes - The broken internal processes are often a sales inhibitor.
