Thread regarding VMware layoffs

Why is B and R dancing on our grave?

Thousands of us will lose our jobs and been living with uncertainty, while they are _still_ celebrating.

There you have it. EPIC value at its best. Hypocrite.

"I guess we need to redefine what it means to dance."

That comment reads as their behavior being open to interpretation as whether its offensive or not. No one questioned the dancing.

Their behavior was inappropriate, can you at least just realize that?
No, because that's just your opinion from your interpretation.

I guess we need to redefine what it means to dance. Someone call Webster.

They pulled quite the feat with the q3 bonus and the epic donation dollars

Enjoy that warm feeling when you start collecting unemployment and thank them for having the courage to collect their CIC money.

Michael Dell sold VMware to Hock on his yacht in Hawaii and THEN told Raghu. Raghu had nothing to do with it and found out after.

Raghu was put in the CEO position with a simple task, find a good deal for the shareholders. He made it and should be counting his bonus now.

At first I was bothered but that was quickly overcome when I heard the news they had to share. They pulled quite the feat with the q3 bonus and the epic donation dollars. Really made my day and I feel lets us Go out in a high note in true VMware fashion.

No, because that's just your opinion from your interpretation.

You can extend that line of thought greatly. What's the point of showing customer wins? Or product improvements? Why does any of it matter then except to get on and talk Broadcom and that's it?

You have hyper fixated on five seconds that occurred before the All Company, chosen to be offended by it, and now are justifying that belief to others. Most of us just shrugged and moved on.

Should they have come out in black cloaks and cried on stage?

For Fs sake, what is it with people making excuses for their behavior. No they don’t need to wear Fn cloaks, for Fs sake is there no other behavior you can suggest other then the extreme? Maybe they should have come out and lined up people in a row and shot them all?

Their behavior was inappropriate, can you at least just realize that?

Thousands upon thousands of people’s lives are about to be totally upended in a hunger games lottery. They can act with respect and dignity to the situation. They chose not recognize this basic fact and speak to people like adults.

At least they will be wearing adult diapers before I do. Such sc-m.

Leadership's role is to keep the business going and keep spirits high. It was amusing and ultimately ignorable. Five seconds of pre-show activity that you can dismiss and move on.

Should they have come out in black cloaks and cried on stage?

Assuming good intent is EPIC value.
