Pros

Beautiful campus. Cafeteria serves great food. Great parking structure where employees do not need to park their cars under the sun. Campus is so beautiful that they are subletting part of the campus to Tesla Motors.

Cons

The company is no longer the VMware we came to know and love many years ago. The internally created EPIC value is mostly marketing but no one at the management level believe in it. This is apparent given how certain VPs are misusing internal funds for a variety of reasons.
