Pros

Good place to work at and really good work-life balance. Good work culture in the group I am in. Management chain is very open and lets you know where you stand with your peers

Cons

Not to many cons in my current role Far from where I live, but that is made up by the good work-life balance. They could offer free food and free gym or at least one or the other for all the employees.

Pros

Vmware has nice benefitt. The culture is friendlly. Vmware is not a sweat shop. It has a nice palo altolocation. VMware has great gym. Its campus is beautiful and has lots of trees on campus

Cons

VMware stock is range bound. The company has lots of dumb VPs. The upper management's all hands meeting are nothing but a mutual admiration club.

Pros

Solid benefits. Good culture. Plenty of Snacks and free food on a weekly basis. Technical learning opportunities abound. Customer focused, support focuses on top shelf service that puts rest of industry to shame.

Cons

Turnover for peers and managers alike within support is high. The cream of the crop leave for internal opportunities (good) or, too often, leave for better wages outside the company. Constnatly changing metrics for support organization, makes getting raises potentially tricky. Bottom line goal is do what's best for the customer, which is awesome; but how they try to measure that is not communicated well.
