same thing in offer letters in the US and a week later told everyone to get in the office.
I have beach front property in Alaska to sell you.

Uh, they did not do that. I'm in the US and still happily remote.

And, Alaska does have beach front property. You're 0/2.

'They said the same thing in offer letters in the US and a week later told everyone to get in the office'

  • But they didn't... they said in US letters about attending office if within 50 mile radius... Why are you talking total bullsh*t just to back up your own theories?

Make your own decision and stop trying to negatively influence others with cr-p.

For the people stating BC resume is not valuable does not make any sense at all. Criticise BC all you want, but the high churn output and consequent profit generation are highly correlated with skills, conscientiousness, discipline, and even health status. This may be an ugly truth of the matter but it's the reality.

Those of you who think they are going to allow a flexible working arrangement are delusional. They said the same thing in offer letters in the US and a week later told everyone to get in the office. If you think it won't happen there, I have beach front property in Alaska to sell you.

Layoffs primarily impact management roles, with senior managers and numerous other managers required to depart by the end of April.

In my team lot of people undecided.

Some don’t want to work weekend without any extra compensation. A lot of people are unsure about broadcoms flexible working policy and what it means. Return to office for 2-3 days per week is most likely going to happen soon, working remotely full time likely not possible.

VMware experience is highly valuable on a CV, same can’t be said for Broadcom.

Big decisions ahead

Take the money and run! Software résumé’s aren’t stronger with Broadcom on them.

Over 50% I heard from the general chatter, anyone with decent tenure taking the package and out the door. It will leave huge gaps in the business in terms of knowledge and b-ms on seats. Interesting times.

6 wks plus the retention bonuses which really drive up the scsb tax free exemption.
Perfect storm.

Higher number of declines than I could have ever predicted in our dept. Some with job offers elsewhere, some just taking the money & running
