CA folks - do you have any advice for those of us at Symantec? In case the Broadcom acquisition goes through?

Folks get ready for a different culture - fast decision making, every decision about bottom line, no WFH policy etc. This is coming from someone who went thru acquisition/integration with Broadcom.

We will witness MASSIVE LAYOFFS soon!
Broadcom has to remove over 1.5 billion from CA for it to make sense.

It will be ok if you are in R&D and work on profitable product.
HT will slice the pie and will keep best products under Broadcom.
Yes. I went through two Broadcom acquisitions. What would you like to know?
Don't believe your management, even if you trust them. All the CA managers that were kept knew weeks in advanced and knew everyone that was going to be cut. They planned the teams and such. No ICs really knew until D-Day. We got emails-- you were cut, termed, or welcomed to Broadcom. Pay is great, stock is strong. My advice, do your job, don't have anxiety. They will pay you out generously if you are cut. If you stay, hold on to your hats it will be a bumpy ride but if you stick it out it will be worth it.
