Pros

Great technology and most of the products are tops. Great internal website and great individual people. Still a very can do attitude within the company

Cons

The company only cares about making the quarterly sales target. Little desire to do the right thing by the customer. Customer service is an after thought. The overall processes within the company are disjointed, not well thought out. Very poor planning with little thought of the consequences. Management style is "Do it my way" or hit the highway. There is no reward for resolving process issues and making the company more efficient. Everything is goaled according th the number.

Pros

Working with cutting edge technology, on the fore front of virtualisation efforts, great and large projects for customers, all make it worthwhile to work for VMware. Even in this economic climate we can travel to all parts of EMEA for projects.

Cons

Very little strong leadership. HR treats employees like we should be glad to work for VMware. Very bad resource management. A lot of projects and still people have a low billable utilisation. Too many management layers! Benefits are being cut in certain areas and we're told we're lucky to have a job.
