Technology@lemmy.world•Broadcom CEO tells VMWare workers to ‘get butt back to office’ after completing a $69 billion merger of the two companiesEnglish
3·3 years agoI have a bit of insider knowledge on this, and you’d be surprised at how demented a CIO can be at getting away from a company that has pissed them off. VMware is no exception, and I personally know of 2 companies, which are top 5 in the world in their field, that have been exploring alternatives to VMware. The internal culture at VMW has been one of upping prices to match what broadcom will want for almost a year, and it’s causing clients to go elsewhere. Companies with an effective monopoly can still fuck it all up.

6·3 years agoSince they already deal with a fair few of VMware’s customers themselves, I’d say they probably bought VMW to bolster it’s software offerings. They seem to be wanting to get rid of a lot of the staff there, so customers tend to build relationships with their vendors, and burning those bridges ain’t going to help there.

5·3 years agoIf you look at the UK, they vote with pencils - all because there is the remote possibility of replacing a pen with one that has disappearing ink.
lol no. Voting with pencils is because they’re cheap, abundant, don’t leak, don’t smudge when folding the ballot paper. It’s recommendation, not a law No nonsense about disappearing ink.
Source: Am from UK and have voted with a pen (blue, black, green and red ink) and a pencil.
