Business Outlook

Pros

Promotes family (annual family day). Good gyms and showers and cafeteria. Good benefits and time off. Makes training accessible and encourages you to do it.

Cons

Senior management sometimes appears distant. I had very few career opportunities in my department, but was in operations, not engineering. Broadcom is engineering dominant.

Has a reasonable benefit package. It offers opportunities to climb hierarchical ladder.

Work-Life balance not always respected, principally due to multiple leaderships. Management pushes employees hard without rest periods.

Business Outlook

Pros

pay is OK and work load is OK and healthy insurance is better than 80% company. Lots of smart guys who are working for this company.

Cons

down the hill with the culture of inner core decision making style. So many smart buys who are feeling not fully engaged to do meaningful things. They are doing whatever be asked to do or just because of fear of lose job, They pretend work hard and not speak anything.
