Review from HR Dept

benefits and work from home

Review from HR Dept

Work life is awesome and no stress

Ergonomically friendly and conducive for the type of work we do.

Review from Operations Dept

Hold our values to high standards

About as close as i have been able to get to work life balance

Our values as a team and people

Diversity, Inclusivity and Equity are core values

everyone is willing to lend a hand of help

They want us to fell part of vmware, ONE VMWARE. Almost everyday there is a webinar or something to reinforce culture, values or interest in the company values. They have a lot of virtual games and contest (gamification) so you embrace the company culture but also have fun and also earn prices :)

Review from Sales Dept

Inviting, enthusiastic, uplifting, focused and honest.

Strong academic culture: knowledge wins over style in R&D

inclusive and always looking to ensure equality

People here are friendly and willing to help, they love to see you succeed.

Review from Sales Dept

The team makes it the best

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Better honest communications. Better management

Need to make it positive and work positively

Leadership transparency, trust (do what you say, say what you do), more autonomy to make decisions, less competition....

So much admin work it makes it hard to be customer focused

Stop inefficient behaviors, stop allowing bad behavior, especially in the senior leadership, there is no work life balance for several departments, creativity is damaged by this contact work and no rest.

There are some toxic senior leaders that either need to change their behavior or leave

Review from Sales Dept

openness from upper and middle management.

Great culture to be working with really nice people

Review from Sales Dept

Fewer meetings, get rid of poor/low performers, clear prioritization.

Fix sales ops, and goal people fairly

The only way to get ahead is to be a "pet" for your manager. Many managers think they know everything and don't want to listen to anyone below them.

Review from Product Dept

Executives should ask for more detailed reports of underlying problems. Create a culture that celebrates surfacing of bad news.

Review from Engineering Dept

Increase sense of urgency and accountability.

Review from Engineering Dept

Invest in education, lateral and upwards moves.

Review from Operations Dept

better office space
