Pros

Broadcom USED TO BE a great company, forward thinking, intelligent people, productive / fun environment, concerned with doing the right thing, but the executive staff betrayed the employees who worked so hard to build the company by selling out to Avago.

Cons

Understand that "Broadcom Ltd" is not Broadcom. It is Avago with a stolen, unearned brand duct-taped to the door. If you are thinking of working here, read the reviews of Avago. That is where you would be working.

Pros

The pay is fair. It actually pays average people too much and not enough for high performers. The work-life balance is really different from group to group. Promotion opportunities are good, if you like a fancier title every couple of years.

Cons

No accountability for upper management. They screwed up so many key decisions but the people should be fired are still up there making ridiculous amount of money. Vacation policy is ridiculous. You supposedly can request unlimited vacation each year. But if you are a responsible person care about the projects you are working on, you would not get any because you do not have time to take vacation.
