Pros

There is so many chips coming out every year, that you have a lot of opportunities to fix bugs and learn something new.

Cons

VACATION POLICY - there is no limits on vacation days, so instead of earning vacation days, you have to beg for any break. It is not well organized place, which cause a lot of stress when some problems are discovered in last moment. And as there is a lot of chips coming out, there is a lot of opportunities for final push.

Pros

High pay, good benefits, stock options

Cons

Soulless corporate structure and demands. Broadcom acquired the company I worked for and drastically increased prices immediately, alienating well over 50% of our customers.
