No Bonus for 2019, 2020, 2021 No incriment for 2020, 2021 Politics at every level. Micro management. Managers will not let you take sick leave. You need their permission to fall sick even during Pandemic No work-life balance because of rotational shifts that does not rotate for 1.5 years. If you are in NA shift, you will be there for 1.5 years No career growth or promotion or switch role. They will conduct 5 rounds of interview same as an outsider. It is much easier to get a job out of VMware than inside. There is no concept of promition to another role or Supervisor or Manager. Its via an interview process and they prefer an outsider to an insider

Great work culture. Employee friendly policies.

Dislikes

Health insurance involves an employee co-pay. That is simply not good insurance! Additionally no dental or vision coverage. I am quite surprised VMware still lags behind in this, given it is a relatively low-cost benefit that an employer can provide.

VMware used to be a great company work but since it's acquisition the culture has been different. Great tech to work. Good RSU and stock options.

Dislikes

...fired every quarter. It could be based on your performance or teams performance. Bonus calculation is also very brutal.

Salary Expectations

I am a Social Media Specialist with over 4 years of experience and was earning around 4.5 LPA in my previous role. When I joined my current organization, I discovered that my manager, with just 2.5 years of work experience, was earning a compensation of 7.6 -8.2 LPA (approx). This was quite surprising to me, and it made me question the market standards. I am currently looking to switch roles and, based on my research through Glassdoor and other sources, I am expecting a package of 7-8 LPA. However, many HRs I’ve spoken to feel that even 6 LPA is too high. What should be the ideal salary expectation for someone with my experience in the current market?
