Pros

Great place to get technical exposure, definitely gives enormous opportunities to improve technical expertise

Cons

Limited opportinuties to grow up the management ladder, lately compensation structure does not align with traditional broadcom philosophy of stock compensation, basically compensation is (base salary + bonus in form of RSU's which do not work out much + a miniscule 401k match), previously stock options used to be given out which used to make Broadcom lucrative but not anymore

Pros

Broadcom offers great compensation and benefits

Cons

Wasn't a con for me but was for some, but remote work is highly discouraged and rare, most people must go into the office every day. Also, it is a rank and yank system.
