Fake news. No offers until after the generic ‘Welcome to Broadcom’ email

Because my manager informed me.

And how much do you trust that they have the actual data and are not just "really sure" about it?

Yes, you can. Your manager or someone in your leadership can communicate it to you informally. How do I know this? Because my manager informed me.

Nonsense. You can't be "told" by someone that you have a spot. This is only done via "official" comms by Broadcom HR not your buddy down the hall.

If you have a spot you'll get official correspondence from Broadcom.

Multiple people are getting told they have a spot. I am not sure about official letters yet though.

Are offers being sent to the private or company email? Also, anyone with a transition offer can share lenght of transition and if severance is offered at the end?

This slow roll out is exactly the kind of thing that will drive a person mad

Good luck to all

Does the compensation remains same as in the current role or changes?

instead of just blurting out information, can you please give some context? like how do you know? otherwise it defeats having a site like this if it is just more fake news

I think the sooner the better. We will have more time for job search if not in the list

I know two people personally that already have offers. Sales and legal. Two completely different businesses and roles. It’s not that clean as “mid-October.” Different groups are on a faster pace. Just adds to the anxiety, I know. Don’t shoot the messenger.
