How does the interview loop look like?
It should similar to how would you prepare for Amazon director level interviews. Take help from friendly senior folks at Amazon.
Albeit it differs between BUs and Groups... A Director is usually a manager's manager and maybe some high level ICs.
Why would you go to VMware from Amazon? Amazon is a much better company.
Depends on what you want. WLB is bad at VMware too..but only because there's much more life than work 😉 unlimited PTO, slower release cycles, better benefits, WFH whenever you want, and comparable pay if you leave out the insane stock appreciation that Amazon has seen recently I i.e compare Amazon "target comp" to VMware's comp. I made the move and I'm happy, not just with the move but in general.
That’s fair! Good perspective.
VMW stock tripled in last 2.5 years... So...
What did amazon’s stock do? VMW stock tripled due to amazon partnership.

Grab coffee with somebody that works there and ask him/her what the role looks like and prepare from there
I’m remote and don’t know anyone in that group
