Pros

Great technical talent, high performance expectations.

Cons

Prior managment of MPG had us going in a consistent positive ttrajectory, but like most old BRCMers, they were driven out. The current managment knows a lot less about the cellular market and changes their mind every week. It has become a joke. New management has finally realized that the old plans were correct, but we've lost 9 months.

Opportunity to do international-level engineering

Pros

Engineering excellence - virtually everyone is a highly skilled engineer. Decent compensation and generally fair promotion and compensation culture. Opportunity to work on world-class projects.

Cons

Large international corporation, with many of the organisational politics that this brings. Centralised IT can be very impersonal. Many corporate policies are American-centric. All that said, these are not major drawbacks; Broadcom is by and large quite good and pleasant.

Pros

Interesting projects, can learn a lot. Broadcom still shows a great ability to innovate among the competitors. People are skilled.

Cons

Hard to manage between work and personal life. Pressure can be high, with demanding schedules. Being promoted above senior positions is difficult.
