Hearing some chatter that PG may be leaving soon.

Typically on Jan9th every year - as clockwork; management decides to cull areas of business I'm somewhat new at VMware, so I can't tell if this is true or not? It'd be nice to be prepared if it is, because I'm assuming that it'll be "last in first... read more

heard people talking of EUC bangalore downsizing coming Jan..

Now people want to masquerade it as cloud and force feed customers. Customers ain't buying. People keep clinging to this delusion about "private" or "hybrid" cloud: cloud is cloud, private cloud ain't cloud, it's enterprise datacenter that has been... read more

Bangalore is hub for s-xual and workforce Harrazement. It’s mainly due to abuse of power and womenizers who believe they can do anything and get away. Like #metoo there definitely need to be a platform to express our hinderances we have at work... read more

Is there going to be any reorg or VMware Layoffs in 2019?

PSO in MK (UK) is seriously depleted and managers all gone. Much work PSO already gone to BNG.

What was announced at the end of August, now is official. VMware acquires CloudHealth Technologies( if someone didn’t know, a cloud computing startup company based in Boston). An official statement from VMware confirmed the purchase, but the value of... read more

Anyone heard any rumours about cuts in the UK yet? My manager was suggesting it might be a possibility in the next 6 months.

Saw manager-only meetings happening quite frequently in the last week of April. Does anyone know if the lists are being prepared?

Recent org changes will lead to more rapid job migrations from Palo Alto, Seattle, Cambridge, Atlanta and Beijing to Bengaluru

Good news, layoffs accross the company might be fewer as shareholders oppose reverse merger with Dell Technology.

Infra/Sysops/NASA teams cut to half. Other teams frozen. Bulgaria site to double workforce and Cairo support center coming up. Most job openings coming masked from Dell.

Seriously VMware lays off big every January and smaller in July, and that is when the company is doing fantastic. Just wait until Michael Dell is done opening is piehole and tanking VMware stock. Seriously W.T.F . Stay away Mike and let VMware make... read more

Interesting comment about future of our CTO. Nothing wrong with our current CTO, if he is quitting they should hire a good and competent CTO; Age, gender and ethnicity must not matter. I am not white nor Indian but Indian Frat Boy accusations ring... read more

Microsoft to acquire MobiIron and Okta to bolster sagging Microsoft offerings. Plans being finalized. Competing VMware products and teams will be obliterated: RIP WorkSpaceOne and AirWatch POS! Ouch!! Shiethead D-team VP, high and dry again with... read more

Next big round of layoffs middle of May if vSphere and other products are delivered as per schedule. Palo Alto, Atlanta, Boston, London, Beijing teams are thus forewarned. Prepare your CV now.

hey phat bellysinger; you have the entire corporate communication and hr propaganda machinery at your disposal, even then you spew lies on this blog. your email on the day of layoffs was really pathetic. fits perfectly with your idol, mr. prez's mo... read more

This website is intended to give news on layoffs. Not sit there and trash the company you were perfectly OK with before layoffs. I work for VMW, and have for over 5 years. And I've seen good and bad times. Ive seen changes and Ive seen people come... read more

Anybody else hoping that the whole Dell wanting to buy VMware thing falls through and falls through quickly? Dell is in so much trouble right now, just visit their page on this site and you'll see how many layoffs they've been having lately. Being... read more

Does anyone know the European situation? Are there plans to cut jobs as well and if so which BUs are affected? Thanks

So much for Trump tax breaks. All Horizon dev and QE will be in Bangalore by end of 2018. Fast, cheap and sloppy is the mind set. Retaining customers is not a priority.

Anyone from Bangalore office can please confirm what is the total compensation they are giving while firing?

While working at VMware I scratched my head every time I would read the reviews on glassdoor.com. I didn't understand why the employees gave this company so much praise and loyalty! I only noticed one review that seemed accurate to me (IT SWEATSHOP)... read more

Now that it has been a few days, can we say for sure that this round of layoffs is done? Frankly, I can't figure out why we had these in the first place considering how well VMware is doing, so more would not really come as as big of surprise. I... read more

Does anyone know the total layoff number?

This was quite upsetting to me, partly because I knew several of the people that were cut, but mostly because the affected people that I knew had worked so hard and were extremely well liked by their customers, colleagues and managers. What does this... read more

My team is getting impacted in PA and AW team in ATL. Anyone has total number? EUC only has directors and VPs. It is very political environment

The executive staff are completely untrustworthy. Their EPIC mantra is hypocritical. I seriously doubt vmw will continue to be rated as one of the best companies to work for. Too often they are letting hard working people go while rewarding... read more

Many people laid off in Palo Alto at all levels. 150 in marketing total. Company wants to move marketing to Atlanta we hear.

Will todays layoff in VMWare will affect the green card process?

Asking for the people on H1B because finding another job is a tricky business and gap in employment is not something you want to ever explain to anyone.

Everybody was on edge here from this morning, but now it looks like the storm has passed. Is it just my wishful thinking, or are we safe for now? If it's true that 150 people were hit globally, then I doubt there is anybody left who has not been... read more

Does anybody know yet what kind of severance is VMware offering to those laid off? This does not look like it is nearly done, so it'd be nice to prepare in advance, know what to expect. Also, good luck to those who were laid off today, I'm truly... read more
