Pros

Good stock run nothing else.

Cons

It's all about survival and getting adopted to the bad culture just because you can't gather courage to leave the cash on the table. Acquisition by Broadcom is like a definite death blow to the culture and innovation of the acquired company. Broadcom management only knows the language of money including CEO. The senior management of the acquired company (mostly a Division in Broadcom at that time) is generally clueless and only has one goal -- maximize profit margin. No innovation can happen in such a terrible place, never!

Management is straightforward and execution-focused, though the pace can be demanding. Great for those who thrive in a high-performance environment.

High pressure with occasional work-life balance challenges
