I have been working at Applied Systems full-time for less than a year
Pros
Incredible company at the forefront of its industry. Great pay, incredible leadership, and very collaborative environment even in a remote position.
Cons
Lack of thorough training, could use better alignment on processes/operations. Product bundles are a bit confusing to navigate effectively as a sales team.
I have been working at VMware full-time for more than a year
Pros
Great salary, great benefits (401k, well-being reimbursements, team outings, ESPP), great potential for bonuses depending on your job area. Team probably matters the most for your individual... experience. My team is wonderful, encourages finding learning/growth opportunities, and takes advantage of the unlimited PTO. VMware encourages good work/life balance, taking time off, taking holidays, etc, although plenty of employees work more than 40 hours/week by choice.
Cons
Feels like a big company and it just keeps growing. Because of this there's a lot of re-orgs and management changes. Now there's talk of being acquired which could be a disaster.
Advice to Management
Don't let us get bought out by an even bigger company! We like the values and company culture of VMware. Don't let them change.
