Good work and life balance.
- Former Employee, more than 8 years★★★★★
Pros
pay is reasonally good. Work life balance. but quite some stress before the tape-out
Cons
The work is not so interesting and not challenging.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Scheduling is good depending on your lifestyle Benefits were great, are still good but getting more expensive. Some of the people are good to work with and learn from.
Cons
The rest of the people suck to work with and the good ol' boys club is alive and well. The pay sucks unless you are an engineer. People actually leave for 2 years and come back so they can make market value for their job. Raises are stingy and bonuses are hard to come by most years. The company struggles with accountability everywhere and HR is practically non-existent.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
There are multiple divisions that make up the valuation of the company and stock price. This dilutes the performance of any one division causing the stock price to take a hit. That said, Broadcom is about valuation and return on investment to their shareholders. They are a chip manufacturer in the end with a bunch of other divisions to help bring in revenue to support the overall growth of the company.
Cons
Very difficult to be in a sales roles and advocate for your customer. Broadcom is only interested in getting revenue out of existing contracts with little to no value add for YoY increases in renewal rates. They acquire companies for the revenue - not to be a thought leader. If you work for them just know it's about the stock and not what you are selling. Your personal brand with your customers will take a hit if you work for Broadcom. Comp plan will hold back earned / at risk pay until year end regardless of exceeding performance throughout the year.
