Pros

Broadcom has vet solid top management and great engineering

Cons

Unfortunatly all levels of management below the C level are just overgrow kids. They have no management skill and are the least business mature team I've ever seen in a technology company. Pay is far below the industry norm and the culture expects you to work 70 hour weeks on top of it. Broadcom is a company that suffers from it's founder's cowboy, break the rules (and the law) attitude and will never be a good place to work. Avoid it if at all possible

Management is straightforward and execution-focused, though the pace can be demanding. Great for those who thrive in a high-performance environment.

Cons

High pressure with occasional work-life balance challenges
