Pros: Free drinks, juice, soda, tea, coffee, etc., but no alcohol. Food in the cafeteria is fairly inexpensive. Everyone I worked with had a very high level of expertise. Communication was pretty open. Almost everyone in the group was very helpful to me as an intern. The company works on cutting-edge stuff, and the work is challenging and fun.

Cons: My pay as an intern was on the low side, $20.50/hour plus 1.5X for overtime. This was the summer after I finished college, right before starting grad school. It is sometimes a pain to do a teleconference with other engineers working in Irvine, CA.

Pros: This was once a bright and upcoming company, leading on many fronts. There still exists some of that culture, but it is disappearing fast.

Cons: The upper management is way too concerned with cutting costs. There is no long-term evaluation of how the cost-cutting will affect future growth or success. "Tripping over dollars to pick up dimes" as they say.

Pros: Broadcom is up and coming and has a strong pull in many different fields, therefore it is better able to manage during a recession than many other companies. The employees are hardworking and very motivated. Communication moves quickly with constant emails throughout. There is a heavy workload and weak communication between groups.

I like the environment, but the dress code is loose, which I personally don't like. However, that may be a plus for other people. But not too many negatives. Although I don't like the fact that they waste money just like other companies. Yes!
