After scraping through several other posts relating to the similar issues I am experience, I will keep this brief. I've implemented one of the solutions (powercfg /powerthrottling disable /path "C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware Workstation\x64\vmware-vmx.exe") which has fixed half of the issues such as booting/shutting down and application start up. However I still have 2 noteworthy issues: severe latency/input delay with using something basic as a terminal or typing this post and trying to drag & drop files from my host machine onto/into my VMs desktop and desktop directory with no results other than an odd "shadow" of the file that can be visually seen on the desktop GUI but not seen in the file directory or terminal (yet it can be dragged and dropped into any other directory I've tried so far and it is successful). Any information would be greatly appreciated.
There are numerous posts of slowness when the host CPU has e-cores. There are 3 possible workarounds you can try
(1) set the power profile of the Windows host to "High Performance"
(2) disable power throttling to the vmware-vmx.exe
powercfg /powerthrottling disable /path "C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware Workstation\x64\vmware-vmx.exe"
(3) set processor affinity vmware-vmx.exe to only the p-cores

I know I've tried steps 1 and 2. I'll try 3. battery life isn't a concern as the laptop is always plugged in if I'm working on it.
edit: I thought I had tried steps 1 and 2, turns out I had only tried step 1 as my company locks us out of power profiles in Windows. I've set the processors to only use the first 8 though so hopefully that resolves my issue. There are apparently others on my team with the same processor running 12 cores in VMWare with xubuntu (I'm using Ubuntu) with no issues though, which is odd considering we only have 8 p-cores.
I was having the same problem, not being able to mount hgfs at all. I tried re-installing vmware-tools, then I tried installing vm-open-vm-tools and still no joy. I did notice that when I tried install open-vm-tools and reinstalling vm-ware-tools via vmware-install.pl, I got a failure notice for invalid gcc headers path. You can try this by installing vmware-tools without the -d switch for defaults. You will see the notice for the invalid path. I install headers with apt-get, you may or may not need to create a link to version.h. If version.h exists in /usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r)/include/linux/, skip that step.
Installed the headers, I uninstalled open-vm-tools and reinstalled vmware tools using vmware-install.pl. This time hgfs was mounted correctly and my shared folder is there as well. Re-booted and it is still there.
I came across this question without realising that vmwaretools was actually failing to compile properly when I installed it. It seems to finish normally but actually has error messages, part of which look a little like this:
After upgrading a VM from Kubuntu 12.10 to 13.04 I hit the same problem using VMware Fusion 5.0.3 on OS X 10.8.3. Reinstalling VMware tools rebooting did not help. Some issue between the VMware drivers and the new kernel I guess (my new kernel version is Linux ubuntu 3.8.0-19-generic). I was able to access the shares using open-vm-tools as described in an answer by the OP but his last line has a typo and should read
