Smart Engineers, Questionable Direction
Smart Engineers, Questionable Direction
A very engineering-driven working environment.
Broadcom has enjoyed success in various segments of the market.
There are a lot of smart people around who are very dedicated to technologies. Innovation is highly valued here.
There have been questionable directions on the investment in the cell phone baseband business (they finally decided to get rid of it). The whole company is dragged down, even when all the other BUs are doing quite well.
Compensation should be more closely tied to the success of each BU.
