Pros

Career growth, good income, job stability for 11+years. Great Campus Company focused on 'doing good' with strong philanthropy, corporate ethics, emphasis on workplace equity. My management chain is open and transparent.

Cons

Very Few. It's a big company with typical big company complaints.

Pros

smart, nice and easy going co-workers!

Cons

I claims my dependent care flexible spending account on January for the previous year. But when I was trying to claim it for year 2016 today, they told me the money is gone (back to VMware) since I didn't claim it within the 90 days starting the date I left VMware last year. and, they told me this is not IRS rule, it is the VMWare rule. And, I didn't remember HR told me this rule when I left the company either. From talking with other friends, this is not rules from other companies either.

Pros

Good benefits, bonus, RSUs, we were in satellite office so were removed from any internal politics. It was good while it lasted. we were acquired pampered, then disposed off.

Cons

If they aquire you they just as well may dump you on the floor.
