Good luck to all, just got the boot on my end, strategic rep here

This time is a big one.

surprised no one has posted here about it, but there’s for sure layoffs happening Thursday.

How do I escape from it? So that I can collect my RSUs - rest and vest. The best part of being in ESG is that I’m literally shaking my legs and doing nothing. My manager does the same.

What are your thoughts on the latest ESG coffee talk? What’s our final path forward?

Now that it will cost $100k per year to sponsor an h1b, how do you think this impacts our fellow foreigners working at broadcom? Are they cooked, finished or?

It’s already September, has anyone’s manager said anything about it?

Rumors have been circulating since last year and there were hints that Broadcom was talking with Intel about acquisition/partnership. Looks like Broadcom missed a huge opportunity as Nvidia is now partnered with Intel instead of them. How will this... — read more 

Why again ??????

What do you think ?

My usual routine is just badge-in in the morning and walk out of the building. It seems Broadcom doesn’t track when you’re leaving the office. That’s how we’re taking advantage of the attendance system. Are you guys pathetically staying in the... — read more 

Can somebody please confirm this? Symantec and Carbon Black are performing badly ??

Your divisions are dog sh-t. Always below the line of doom. LMAO 🤣 It's like losers arguing who the bigger loser is.

Because they’re cr—py?

Don’t wait for another round of layoffs! Symantec is way superior than Carbon Black!

Were the raises Hock talked about a flat % to everyone below ICB6, or does it vary from person? I got a 2.5% and it's disappointing especially since Hock made it sound like it's gonna be something big.

Seems Hock has cooled on custom chips in last call and shut someone down. Also rumours about 6month delays, the cost benefit trade off with customer chip not being so great in addition Google also partnering with Mediatek

Day by day I’m feeling more anxious and worried about my future at Broadcom. Every morning I’m checking my email to see if I have been laid off. Are you guys feeling the same ?

To keep it simple, just reply: Yes or No It’s amusing to see ESG staying below the line of doom quarter after quarter. Relying heavily on aggregators to save the business, but it’s doing more damage.

But it may be too little, too late. Internally, whispers of restructuring and layoffs are growing louder. If ESG doesn’t turn things around this quarter, we might lose more than just customers Jason knows what that really means: ESG is no longer the... — read more 

Sep 16.0 is out of the door. Will there be another round of layoffs?

Does HR not track badge data?

Hey ESG folks, working hard to stay relevant? Lol. Here at Symantec’s Singapore office, we’re just chilling and following the badge-in, badge-out policy. Some of us just tap our badge and head back home right away, while most don’t stick around after... — read more 

Agrigator’s model? Oh please, it’s just another fine addition to the BS Hall of Fame. Spoiler alert: they still can’t hang on to small or mid-sized accounts—renewals are as rare as a quiet gSpace thread. Rumor has it, more layoffs are on the... — read more 

10 to 20% reduction in ESG is the news. Some sites has been notified about their last working day.
