Pros

Good company with no vision into future.

Cons

A lot depends where is the location of work. USA is a much better place to work for Broadcom. In Europe it is mostly good for Braggarts, Programme Managers and people in management ladder to put it straight it is mostly those people who don't write a single line of code; so not a place for engineers. For good engineering work better look at US. Here I can see 5 managers talking on phone on one trivial issue and only one engineer working on it that is how skewed the ratio of work is here. Some of these managers are blinded and can't see and has no sense of any engineering work and want to retire without doing anything.

Pros

High pay, good benefits, stock options

Cons

Soulless corporate structure and demands. Broadcom acquired the company I worked for and drastically increased prices immediately, alienating well over 50% of our customers.
