Beware SW Engineers

Principal software engineer

Business Outlook

Pros

Good Comm Scientists and Engineers. Most I've met are dedicated, hard working and believe they have Broadcom's best interest at heart. Decent RF and modem baseband HW.

Cons

The amount of SW in required for new products in this space is increasing exponentially. The current management at all levels doesn't have the training or experience to deal with that. This is The issue that will prevent Broadcom from competing effectively with Intel and Qualcomm.

Eight years with Broadcom

Senior manager
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

There are many talented engineers at Broadcom that work very hard to try to make Broadcom successful.

Cons

It appears that many managers were promoted to management based on their technical accomplishments regardless of the people and management skills. As a result, it seems that many of the managers are lacking in management skills. As the company gets bigger, HR seems to play a larger and larger role. It seems like they are trying to correct some of the problems, but the means are not always the best. Total compensation for lower level individuals appears to be falling as stock compensation drops off. Upper management gets plenty of compensation.
