VMware reviews

If you enter CPD stream, there is almost no way to enter product aka core development work. You will be forced to work exclusively on just bug-fixing and no opportunity is available in terms of time and other resources for more creative work. Even communication with core teams to solve an issue is considered as "taking their help" which counts negatively for you.

Management has changed over the past two years. As a start-up and as a small company, VMware fostered an environment of growth, exchange of ideas and innovation. This, along with an able and technologically sound leadership, had driven VMware to grow from a small start-up to a technologically rich company. The current management has, over time, engendered an opaque management system, devoid of transparency and is "process oriented". This unfortunately is hindering engineering-driven technological innovation and growth and implementation of new ideas, which in the past, have propelled VMware to success. The current management is resting on the laurels of past success without giving due credit to past management systems and the culture of openness of thought between employees and management. Other points: * increasing politics in middle management * increasing "process oriented" management * no formal promotion and career growth policies * dwindling morale amongst employees * loss of faith in management
