Pros

Was a great place to work during the high-growth years from 2011 to 2013. Input was listened to and a good degree of latitude granted to set and accomplish goals.

Cons

Pointless campaigns were pushed hard, just for attainment of overall KPI numbers. Once corporate goals were met, age decriminalizing and concerted efforts to force employees to quit were rampant. Particularly so as VMWare began to take over.

Pros

VMware is truly a leader in our industry with a great breadth of tools & capabilities. There is real opportunity in EUC, NSX, & VSAN. The benefits are good, and the pay is above average. You can make a lot of money in the right situation.

Cons

My entire management team is stuck in Salesforce 24 hours a day. There is very little organization and a clear lack of leadership. It's evident that mid-level management is being told what to do rather than helping contribute to our success. VMware is struggling with becoming a matrixed sales organization, and the technical sales organization is an absolute joke across the board. You WILL be on your own, and expected to sink or swim.

Pros

Great strategy & vision Good brand recognition Gets you in the door with customers with the brand name Not as structured as some very mature organisations so there is a little bit of scope

Cons

Lack of an ability to execute sales operations is non-existent Spend way too much time on back end systems No ISR support so all admin left to senior AE's Quite poor spenders on employee events
