This page has both links.
vSphere is a hypervisor. It's also not free anymore. https://blogs.vmware.co
Then, you can use the link I provided above to get to all the vmware software, locate the vmware workstation pro section there. When you click on it, it will have links to Workstation Pro downloads. There are two download links there for Windows and Linux marked "Free for Personal Use". Click on your link. It will force you to certify you are a resident of the US and that you will not export the software. Once you have done that, you can start the download.
Here is the Workstation Pro 17 blog with download links as well:

Unless they want phone # or something more difficult, I really could not care less.
Reason we were told no bonuses this year
Look up Proxmox.

Reason we were told no bonuses this year
1. They are only interested in the business of the company's top 100 customers. All the rest could go to hell for all they were concerned.
2. They would refuse to do any single transaction that was under $100K. This mean small / medium and even some large businesses would not be able to transact their renewals and were left stranded without appropriate security updates.
3. They were extorting any of the large customers who were considering leaving Symantec, telling them if they were going to cancel the contract then Broadcom would also refuse to renew any other technology they relied on. Most of these largest enterprises have multiple products owned by Broadcom and it's very difficult to extract themselves from all of them simultaneously.
Needless to say, I quit as soon as possible.

Also current paying customers have no support, no ability to even download and deploy software. Pass.
