Pros

You can work for a good team, Market leader in most of the segment. Lots of new stuff learned every day.

Cons

Still works in a startup mode. Always trying to satisfy the next customer. Not much long term vision and time spend to achieve the vision. Due to recent Re orgs, lot of politics between every team.

Business Outlook

Pros

The company really does try to penetrate new markets.

Cons

The company aims for high volume markets by targeting the low tier. In this regard you don't really get to work on the latest technology, and Broadcom is always one step behind the industry leader.
