VMware Manager reviews

Culture is amazing. VMware empowers employees to drive an outcome. You Aren't there to turn a few screws and collect a paycheck. You feel part of something special whether it is the work you accomplish or the impact the company tries to make outside of business.

VMware is very supportive of career development. Internal transfers even between completely different types of jobs are very easy to accomplish. In the 6 years I've worked there, I've had 4 completely different kinds of roles - Internal Datacenter Ops, Sales Engineer, Professional Services, and now Management. I never feel the need to leave VMware to move to the next step in my career or to branch out into emerging technologies. Before coming here I always had to leave a job every 2 years to be able to move up or get involved in different things. The highest levels of leadership constantly impress me with the strategic decisions they make and the way they are able to monetize and promote new technologies. I've never seen a leadership team as good at making money. This translates to solid commissions for Sales Engineers / Account Reps and general company health/growth if nothing else. They also take their corporate culture pretty seriously. They really mean it when they say they are committed to things like work/life balance.
