VMware reviews about "upper management"

- Lack of upper management communication

Upper management are more driving on statistics and number count than actual value of results.

- people put their careers before common sense (projects are created only for the promotion of someone) - a lot of context-switching - focus on DEI (hiring non-suitable people just for the sake of having them in the statistics) - upper management has their own minds and doesn't listen to developers, forcing them to make bad architecture, leaving the project once they see the big issues

There is no time to read, learn or grown, there is too much work and the supported products are complex. Upper management does not seem to realize how overworked the global support organization is.

Specific nature of certain work areas can get super busy and ticket backlogs are a thing, can cause burnout if managementis not good. Disconnect between frontline Support Engineers and Senior upper management im certain areas.

Some pressure from upper management to build pipeline and meetings are not always converted into stage 1 opportunities by AEs. Broadcom acquisition currently in place, freezing hiring in certain BUs.

Heavily siloed, constant restructuring and poor upper management make planning and execution really difficult, morale is very low

1. Upper management is clueless. They do not know how to drive the company. Execution is flawed 2. Talented people are leaving
