Pros

- Great colleagues - Superb site in Cambridge - Interesting technology

Cons

- Lack of institutional will to be at cutting edge of technology --- always trying to follow along cheaper. The trouble is, that's much harder than running a proper tick-tock cycle and getting your budget offerings almost "for free". - Poor senior management; confused and unstable strategy seemed mostly focussed on massaging the balance sheet. - Questionable future under new owners.

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.
