Pros

Free AC Cabs, thats all

Cons

Very bad hikes. Hikes are given here like they throw a Parle G biscuit to a street dog. Me being a developer here, my salary is way below market standards. And there is no salary standards here in Airwatch. Freshers salary is equal to my salary here. Depending upon how much show off you do and how good a boot licker you are, you will get hikes depending upon that. If you go to talk to your managers about your salary, they will send you back saying we will see in the next hike cycle. Higher management are a bunch of liars. And work from home option only to selected people and not for everyone. I advice you not to join here, if at all you want to join, negotiate very hard during interview for the salary, because later hikes are horrible.

Pros

2-3 years ago I would've given 5 stars across the board. VMware was very employee oriented. I bragged as often as I could about how happy I was to be a part of such an innovative company with such supportive management. Work/Life balance was a concept I had never heard of and the growth opportunities were limitless.

Cons

Cash flow business model. That's the only thing that seems matters now. Not the years of hard work people have put into that company. Culture and values used to be important. Guess that's just the nature of the beast. They've really grown to embrace the devil that is Corporate America. I think it is safe to say that it won't be getting better any time soon.

Pros

Benefits and great engineers in the office

Cons

Office location is horrible, culture is getting a big hit and EPIC2 values are not there... New management is destroying the company and our products are getting less competitive (with a few exceptions). Customers are getting half-baked products and paying a fortune for it. Support by junior engineers is provided out of low-cost geographies.
