●● What is Going on at VMware?

Summary: New VMware management makes irrational decisions, has Microsoft qualifications


“VMware turned into my enemy,” tells us a former employee of the company. According to him, it all happened “after a clueless manager was allowed to get [him] fired.” According to our source, this manager only had one qualification, an MSCE.


This may be interesting because of EMC’s intervention. It overthrew the old management and installed Microsoft instead.


“According to our source, this manager only had one qualification, an MSCE.”Tucci threw VMware’s management out and 3-4 Microsoft executives are now running the company (here is the latest addition, Mark Lucovsky), whose top technical staff too was ousted or escaped. Microsoft’s hand in this is a possibility.

Regarding that new manager, we learn that “he was a bully manager that everybody was afraid of except me. Unfortunately nobody else would go with me to HR to complain.”


“VMWare brings back the dark ages… Indentured servitude, cronyism, draconian management,” says one review among other pages with equally unnerving testimonials. There is clearly something rotten there.

Some people resort to class action lawsuits. “When the economy improves,” says our source, “there will be an exodus from VMware in my opinion.”

VMware is still a member in the Linux Foundation, but as we have shown before, they do a lot to support Microsoft's ambitions these days. █
