I have this issue and called into vmware tech support.  They seemed to be aware of the issue and walked me through reinstallation of vmware.  Reinstallation did seem to help, but it is not completely fixed.  If I leave the vm running and go do some serious work in mac os x, the vm becomes so slow that is unusable.  When this happens, I normally have to do a forced shutdown because a normal shutdown takes forever (the longest i have waited was 30 minutes - and it felt like it was maybe 5% of the way through shutdown).  This problem never happened under mountain lion so the problem is definitely related to mavericks.  I really wish vmWare would be more open with what they know about this and what (if any) progress they are making towards a resolution.  As it is now, the product is not working properly and I am tempted to either downgrade back to mountain lion or give parallels a try.
