Pros

easy work, good pay (if you know VMware...I came via acquisition where I was already doing the job.

Cons

So much internal reporting. You're basically a spreadsheet/tracker monkey. Soooo boring. Nobody cares about the customer anymore, it's all about PROFIT PROFIT PROFIT. Pretty lame for the VMware folks where we used to LOVE our custs.

Pros

Pay is the only pro at Broadcom.

Cons

Outside pay, everything is a con over there. VMware was amazing, Broadcom crapped all over the company. Mass layoffs and pivot from customer-facing work to internal reports. Oh, and BC uses G-suite, which is dog poop.

Great technical exposure to concepts on signal processing for the analog and RF front end chains. Good stock options. Experienced colleagues.

Cons

Need employees with fresh though process. Too much of in breeding could hinder innovation.
