Hi guys,
Need help,I am joining @VMware Banglore on 27th June. During interview I told them I need wfh. They said it wil be wfh this entire year. Only mistake I did was i didn't permanent wfh. I took for granted like once I join i can opt for it ( as my VMware friends had said we can opt for it)
Now the offices have started, I am scared if they call me to office , I have 14months son, not willing to leave him n go for office.

So if I ask manager to give me permanent wfh will they agree ?

I would suggest better join and then explain the problem and they should be able to make arrangements.Alternatively if you want 100 percent surity then for that you should have another offer letter in hand.Then you can talk to vmware now and ask them to agree for permanant wfh and then join else join the other company

Once I join and inform later then they will be furious on me if i say i want permanent wfh, so have informed manager. Waiting for a response.
I have declined other offers once i received VMware offer. No issues i can get jobs if i start giving interview, i am immediate joiner now 😁, may be i need to struggle for a month or so looking for a remote job. Have to take that risk now.

I am also going to be joining VMware soon. But I made sure to mention permanent wfh in the first round of interview itself. If the role is remote supported(like team is remote/based is us) you would get it easily no problem

like

The whole interview + offer took about 2 months

Normally you can opt for permanent wfh until unless your team needs you to be present at office time to time however 90% of the time wfh is given once you opt remote.

Thank you 😊

Had my virtual on-site for an S&O L3 role 3.5 weeks ago (NYC, 5 YOE). I haven’t heard back on a decision yet, and was wondering how long it typically takes? I also know that I was one of the very first candidates to interview for this specific role, and there are atleast 2 more people scheduled for onsites. Does the recruiter typically wait for all candidates to finish their onsites before communicating a decision? Or if I haven’t heard back yet, it’s probably a reject?
