Pros: Good work-life balance and good pay.

Cons: Not many opportunities for full-time work.

Pros: You get RSUs and decent pay.

Cons: They don't care about you and let you know it in all sorts of ways. It's their way to make you always afraid so they can control you. They are a culture that values money above all else. Your compensation is good, but they seem to think that means they can treat you like dirt and you are supposed to just shut up and take it (because we pay you enough). You feel like just a number in a spreadsheet. If the magic number 'the head count spreadsheet formula spits out at the end of every month calls for more people to get cut, you feel like you might be next. About 80% of the people I used to work with are gone. Large numbers were let go, others were forced to quit with unreasonable RTO mandates, etc., and others just 'had enough' of it and found a better place. Besides the monetary compensation, the culture is based on all sticks and no carrots. It is very hard to work for Broadcom and remain enthusiastic about your day-to-day work. They expect you to 'care about the company' just because they gave you some RSUs, but at least for me, it doesn't really work. I used to love my work before the Broadcom takeover, but now I'm just there to work as little as possible and cash a check. I just don't care anymore about the work, since it feels like they'll probably fire me eventually anyway, no matter what I do. On top of all that, they also don't seem to really care whether you have the tools needed to be productive day-to-day. If there is a choice between saving a dollar or two or giving an employee access to some tools that might make them more productive, they will take the dollar savings every time. So you get to do your job constantly under-resourced.

Pros: Large size company with Reserved stock units. Good bonus.

Cons: Low compensation adjustment in the review
