Pros

Stock price!!!! This is the only good thing at Broadcom.

Cons

Everything else is just plain horrible!!! Broadcom acquired VMware and let a very large amount of employees go. While they were on WARN, they lost all access to any systems, including support request systems. They even messed up a lot of people payroll on 12/15. The money never processed to the employees' checking accounts. They notified some today that within another day or two, the pay will be processed. So, it will arrive in their accounts a week late. Totally unprofessional!!! Stay away from this company!!!!!

Pros

Generous initial RSU grant and supposedly more each year

Cons

RTO policy seems designed to get people to quit so that they don’t have to pay you severance. HR is a joke, was told to email the CEO with my concern since it “wasn’t an HR problem”. CEO can clearly make tons of money for shareholders but is past his best-by date and his judgement is clearly deteriorating with recent acquisitions. Company is overall run like a financial firm and treats tech workers like indentured servants.

Pay, Benefits, Pay, Benefits, Pay

Cons

Authoritarian, Unlimited PTO is trash, "just another day in paradise" in the breakroom, a bunch of "happy Friday" types
