Pros
challenging work
good rsu
Really enjoy the majority of my coworkers. Most are humble, friendly, and skilled. They don't over exert you but challenge you to bring your best. Lots of people to learn from, and you're not micromanaged.Cons
No work life balance
cost cutting
Not everyone gets good bonuses. I think the way they assess people could be better. Could have some more events, but usually related to your specific groupAdvice to Management
spend more on R&D
Improve assement of contributions, and hold onto good people. Share the birthday peoples names on their birthday (at least if they are ok with it)! Its nice having celebration but weird that we don't know who for.Broadcom 2018-04-02 00:22 PDT![Broadcom Logo]()
