      Was harassed repeatedly

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The pay was better then anything I had up until this point.

      Cons

      I was harassed repeatedly at this job. When I finally went to HR about this, management told them that they were just making jokes and they thought that it was no big deal. HR agreed with this after 6 complaints about the individual who was calling me names. His behavior was encouraged and I was actually repremanded by my management team for having come forward. My direct manager insisted that I tell her personal information about abusive things that happened to me in the past.

      So. Much. Potential. (But, so much politics)

      Marketing director
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      This SHOULD be a great company. It's got a great set of culture values, killer products, a devoted customer group, excellent diversity mindset, and enough growth to give opportunity for people to move up. Plus, they pay really, really well, allow you to work remotely, and have a strong strategy for the future.

      Cons

      But, there seems to be this core group of toxic people that Will. Not. Leave. (maybe because they know they have burned their networks outside the company). And they manage to keep getting promoted by making it miserable for everyone else, and basically outlasting them. The result is an org with very few "doers" and a lot of "maneuverers" that make themselves look good by packaging the work of others. In addition, they have some serious growing pains to go through - there's a lot of stuff that takes waaaaaaaay longer than it should because leadership won't organize around a process that reflects their size.

      Founders are full of themselves after the acquisition at VMWare

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The company had a good promise. It was acquired by VMWare. Only founders made money. Rest of employees (most of them) left VeloCloud after 1 year vesting.

      Cons

      It has become terribly racist place after 1 year at Vmware. Founders hired Indian Managers. All managers are Indians. Over 93% of employees are from India. Many complaints to HR at VMWare but no use. HR works for managers.
