Pros

Great place to get technical exposure, definitely gives enormous opportunities to improve technical expertise

Cons

Limited opportinuties to grow up the management ladder, lately compensation structure does not align with traditional broadcom philosophy of stock compensation, basically compensation is (base salary + bonus in form of RSU's which do not work out much + a miniscule 401k match), previously stock options used to be given out which used to make Broadcom lucrative but not anymore

High pressure with occasional work-life balance challenges
