Pros

Love the company. Maturity has helped with the work/life balance. Good benefits package. Flexible working hours and work from home policy. Base pay with strong ESPP program helps.

Cons

Change from equity compensation to bonus comp is terrible. Equity use to be a significant contributor to overall comp. Now bonuses are given, which is less than 5% and not guaranteed! Top level management is overpaid. Look at the CEO. How the hell does he reap $20M in 2014 after failing to deliver on a multi-year, multi-billion dollar program. No accountability with previous failed acquisitions; the board is overpaid and weak to the whims of the E level execs. Too bad they drove this company into the hands of Hock Gecko, who will undoubtedly slice and dice the company and employees.

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.
