VMware reviews

-CPD BU Leader's main priority is to develop/promote Beijing Team leaving rest of the Teams (Paloalto, Bangalore, Sophia) to Hell! -No employee retention -Engineers are treated like Pigs (Extremely sorry to compare with Pigs) No value to personal life. -No work life balance, even after working during weekends, Managers expect engineers not take any comp off for the weekends spent on work. -Too much of Politics. -In-order to promote their level in hierarchy, Sr. Manager(s) hire another manager. -Managers can do anything to elevate their position. Best example-One of the engineer(Sr. MTS) who resignes the company after 1+yr of work in CPD as Lead, gets call back to CPD as Manager.

- Absolutely no recognition. You are a "resource", here to fix bugs. - Promotion are entirely left to your manager. Ancient dinosaur engineers are at highest ranks while they don't contribute, young talents do all the work and remain very low for years. - Lots of talking, no acting. Internal polls show lots of discontent but nothing ever changes... - ...besides the entire management chain which is reorganized every 6 months. Huge waste of time & money. - Nobody wants to take the lead on some tasks. Bug threads are like hot potatoes going from a person to another and nobody wants to burn its hands (who can blame them given the lack of recognition). - Some incompetent people can't help the company and to keep themselves entertained they just spend their time making your life harder. Endless reviews, extra (long) approvals, small inter-team wars. Basically everything to prevent you from having a decent time. - People leaving this sinking company at light speed.
