Pros

The health insurance is good and the Irvine campus is nice.

Cons

The IT department is a very low caliber one, most of the real work is done by contractors "managed" from Irvine. In reality, nobody knows nothing and just hopes that the contractors know their stuff. The funny part is that the full time employees always try to look busy and going to 7 meetings a day just filling their hours. If you really want to learn something or do actual work, maybe you should look elsewhere. I guess with Avago things will look even worse.
