It will. This is just more layoffs disguised as back to office. They’ll lose a bunch of good workers, but they bought VMware for the customer base, not the workers.

America needs to start fighting for worker rights, it’s just sad how little they have.

Since 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.

You’re looking at it from the wrong angle: They’re ditching anyone that won’t lick boots
