Made it through 1 year, then quit. Broadcom is a spirit-slaying, motivation-crushing beast led by a megalomaniac who cares NOT 1 WH-T for customers or employees.
Coming from 15yrs at VMware, I couldn’t understand that what I was feeling post-acquisition was accurate. It was inconceivable to me that Broadcom (as a company) could be THIS. BAD.
“Maybe I’m just missing something? Maybe it will turn around” “VMware was their largest acquisition to-date, surely these must be #exceptional growing pains!”
Nope. Broadcom is antithetical to anything besides profit. PROFIT! PROFIT!!
In their terms, it’s called “EAR”.
EAR = Expiring Annual Revenue, and that’s all anybody in leadership talks about. No exaggeration. It’s a mantra. Even all the cool VMware directors bowed knee to the EAR king w/in ~45days, which I still find unimaginable.
Broadcom has mastered the art of soul-stealing. To what end? Why would King Hock position a Top 10 company this way?
PROFIT!!!!!!
