Pros

Well, the salary is above average, and the benefits are nice. You are judged by your professional skills and ability to sell yourself, zero discrimination takes place.

Cons

Competitive non-healthy environment, where you have to cannibalize your teammates for the management to see you, personal achievements by themselves mean nothing. Too much processes and unnecessary stress. Forcing people to go to the office during the first lock down, not even allowing vacation during the shift in the office.

Pros

- Good amount of Company Shares are given to all Employees that adds a lot of benefits, like seriously a lot. - You get to meet people of many talents and hence you learn a lot. - Learning new Freeware Technologies.

Cons

- No hikes or bonus is given for good performance. - Company has made mandatory for Employees to come to office during COVID-19 pandemic, while most of the companies are looking for Employee Safety. - Company was accusing Employees for increasing COVID cases in office campus, although it is obvious that COVID cases will increase if people come to office in pandemic. - Managers have their favorites from North India Region, who they appreciate even though their work quality is lesser.. - Managers do not appreciate rightful Employees - Managers make Employees work for 16 + hrs , weekends, holidays to get the work done. Reason: They over commit deadline to upper management - Manager always create fear amongst Employees that Broadcom will fire anytime. This gives managers an upper hand to make us work even more than expected. - Broadcom fires 300-500 Employees every year. They have no value for Employees. - Company does not have clarity of thoughts for their own product. They don't care about where they are going.
