Pros

Nice and helpful peers; Resourceful IT support; company sales performance is crazy good. Highest C level people are fantastic both Airwatch and VMWare the parent company. Good pay. Probably good place to start up for new grad or new in the market.

Cons

I agree with another review that individuals in mid management really makes the place terrible; for a company this size this project is disoriented and vision is confusing. There's not much to gain from this place if you have more than several years of experience. Treat employee sub-par compares to most other tech companies.

Pros

The older Vmware was a great place to work with strong benefits and career development but now the organization has become political, stale, and brittle.

Cons

There is no career progression in the new Vmware, one you take a job they will never let you move up, Or into another organization. Professional growth is a joke.

Pros

There are great benefits at AirWatch, and the purchase of the company by VMware means that it should just keep getting better.

Cons

The learning curve is steep here, but there are no shortage of resources to leverage.
