Pros
Market stability. Been with the company for a loooong time. Salary is good as are RSU's (when tRump is not busy crashing the market) Teammates and customers are great to work with.
Cons
This is where managers go to die...unless you're a career manager. Then you will thrive...and only if you define "thrive" as maintaining the status quo and being reduced to metrics-based micro management. If you value the challenge and creativity it takes to build and manage a diverse team of talented people with a broad range of skills, Broadcom is not for you. On the other hand, it's a perfect fit if you want to show up and resign yourself to the status quo...you will do very well here. Nothing wrong with that! If you are looking for advancement, look elsewhere; Broadcom prides itself on encouraging employees to stay in the same role until they die. "Advancement" is linear and can be measured on a quarterly basis - "I made it through another quarter >> advance to the next quarter". Not good or bad, just not recommended for those with the motivation to solve complex (fun) problems.
