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:

Every business out there is trying different strategy, this is Broadcom's. And I am saying this as a VMware employee who moved to Broadcom after the recent acquisition.
You can't treat tech customers like they're ordering a sandwich in a deli. You have standing contracts - EULAs, MSAs, that you decide as a result of an acquisition are going to be ditched and these smaller customers can all go scratch. It's bad for business, even if they decided the revenue streams weren't worth keeping around long term. They should have given those customers some time to pivot.
The bigger issue was acquisition of IP that was past it's prime. Symantec was already long overdue for the dustbin of history, as was VMWare. Smells a lot like the old Computer Associates.
