@b9+1jq3wk8bb Wonder if you think you are funny? Such childish comments.
division/role?
3 layoffs here today, good luck everybody.
sold $2mil at 245 ps in January, were bought at <$50 in 2020 when just like now everyone was panic selling like the world was ending. Guess what, it won't! And yes I got layed off by brcm, now I just get layed. Buy in when everyone is in fearful retreat, sell off when everyone is greedy giddy about the highs. It'll make you enough to buy your stupd lambo's too
@1r4+1jq3wk8bb - Are you wanna lambo guy or gal ? with stock sale today you can buy atleast vw jetta for sure...after few months.....you can buy horse carriage....
All the ranting bout brcm cutting the good ones and keeping the bad.. yet we can all see the tu-d-est programmers who can't even code 2 lines ranting the loudest & mocking mgmt. yr layoff seems deservd 2me. now i go count my $$ from selling AVGO long before the 'liberation day' crash
@1g6+1jq3wk8bb - You are here by awarded with "Micromanager of the year" and assigned with 10000 RSUs that will vest over 250 years.....enjoy.....
public static void removeEmployees() {
for(int i = 7000; i >=1; i--){
System.out.println("Removing employee::: " + i);
}
}
This code isn't very good.
I suppose it's intent is to remove employees until there are none?
The starting condition is wrong, and therefore the endstate is wrong.
Recommend reading The Science of Programming by Gries.

}
Some PMs will be gone and the same with most of the UX designers.
word is: we all make same salary as VMware, Brcm locked that in... but gave everyone bonus + $$$ in equity that multiplies YoY - so ya, we be making 4X + within 4 yrs... if we survive layoffs. its like squid game here - you either get kil-d, or if u survive u get rich.
I make exactly the same as I used to make in VMware. Looks like VMware really sc--wed you badly. Anyway enjoy your AI bubble as long as it lasts.
hmmm thx for advice 2check financials, where I see even w latest downs across all stocks AVGO has risen exactly 1,250% in last 10 years. I make 3 times more now than i did at VMWare too. if it all went to hll like you spend all day wishing, we'd all be f i n e and you'd still be beggin for attentn on 'i got laid off' boards. wishing prosperity continues for all us normal tech joes, because it has so far, so keep those doomsday rants comin that your only payoff
185 was a major support. AVGO straddled 185 level for some time. Now that 185 is solidly in the rear view mirror, the next major support is at 135. There is not much in between. The way the stock jumps around, there are not many people who bought the stock in these intermediate levels. We can get to 135 in a few sessions.
Wow this genius found the end of AI! Someone tell all the tech companies that there's a genius on this board.
You can always tell which posts are from this mo--n.
Check the framework for AI diffusion. It is going to hit in a couple of months. That will be the end of AI.
made about 5 million in the last 5 years working here
BRCM bozos lurking in VMware forums and singing praises of HT and hoping for more layoffs. Nope. HT is an idiaaaat. He has fired all the useful people. Now VMware is toast. If he fires more people then VMware will not exist. Even now it is a torso without limbs. You BRCM moraaans will be left begging after BRCM crashes to 20.
Only about 10% of revenue across other divisions comes from China
Obviously it looks like the idiaaat HT retained the bottom 5% in his BRCM companies. Go back and check the quarterly/yearly results.
More untruths from the loser who got deservedly _laid off_. BRCM sells the ASIC chips to only 3 or 4 hyperscale customers, all in California USA. Meta and Google and Apple are examples. Only about 10% of revenue across other divisions comes from China, and zero chips are made there - Taiwan does that, which so far isn't China. The 'loyalist foot soldiers' here have made about 5 million in the last 5 years working here while you spend your unpaid time posting this - that surely makes you the big winner [whiner].
Sure, VMW/BRCM loyalist foot soldier who is going get fired soon is hoping to see the stock go to the moon and happily milk the stock for decades based on ASIC no-backout contracts from Meta (curious what happened to the metaverse) Jaaackerbarg,
BRCM has 50% revenues from China? And the other 50% revenues from the US for chips made in China? Which of these 50% is going to have a 25% tariff? Both? Whatever.
Don't count your chickens before they are hatched.
What's with the whacko doomsday sayer all over this board - fired by VWM/BRCM and now spending all day smoking and ranting about AI bubble burst and "liberation day"? You want it all to fall for why - sweet revenge over your own fall? loser. BRCM is not NVDA - BRCM makes custom chips (ASICS) using no-backout contracts, customers are stuck paying and can't "cancel" like they can GPUs from NVDA. It's obvious you know nothin but how to warn about the sky falling, chicken litle
The analyst from TD Cowen is trying very hard to burst this AI bubble. This is the second time in 2 weeks he said Microsoft is cancelling 2 Giga Watts of AI datacenter contracts. There is a massive over building of AI datacenter capacity.
Even Jack Ma got onto the AI datacenter bubble theme when he released his AI model which needs only 1% of compute compared to deepseek and deepseek needs 1% of compute compared to OpenAI ChatGPT.
I saw Hock in Kaula Lumpur. May be he self deported himself. He seems to be traveling with huge boxes. Probably the billion cash he made last year.
AVGO down 30% from peak in December. AVGO had 28 of these 5% moves in the past one year just like today. Up Down Up Down and into the tubes. A trillion dollar market cap company moving 5% on a day is huge. The volatility is off the charts. Not a healthy market. Will we see 250 again? Yeah. May be in 2050.
70 more companies added to black list just today for selling semiconductors to China. AI diffusion laws that were done in first week of January will kick in a couple of months from now. That is ticking. The sector specific tariffs will be here next week.
NVDA flashed the death cross 200 day moving average crossed down the 50 day moving average. NVDA did this 12 times before and the stock went down 45% before it bottomed in the past.
The board fired Hock!
Liberation day on April 2nd
Krispy creme de la creme greesy peezy all peanut buttery shittty hit the fan
I see VMware burnt to a Krisp.
I wish Krishpy and the next three levels of management under him would get laid off. They are awfully great at contributing to a deteriorating workplace and much higher cost of creating products.
Hock seen at comet ping pong
Let us occupy Ponzi King's office this Friday in PA....we need to impeach this guy for taking away American jobs....all patriots are welcome to join with American flags.........
All probationary employees working on core products will be laid off.
Then they will be rehired.
Yes
Is VMware still bloated with H1Bs ?
probably 80% will be fired in a second if Elon bought this VCF
Remember this : You are hired to get fired....people never became rich with a 9-5 job....save money , invest !!!
VCF will be bought by Elon Musk for Mars city unmanned garbage truck fleet project.
Layoffs dont happen everyday, only when people are seen packing.
