I was working with VMware for Carbon Black product, recently we got acquired by Broadcom and have received new offer Current CTC: for first two year 1 CR and then 85 LPA Base: 37 LPA Bonus: 9 LPA RSU: 45K usd per year Additional RSU for two years - 20 LPA because of old VMware RSU got converted to Broadcom I am not sure about future layed off so I started preparing for interviews and was able to crack interview at Crowdstrike an received following offer Based: 50LPA Bonus: 5LPA Stock: 35K usd per year YOE: 10 yr Should I join Crowdstrike or stay at Broadcom ? Have fear of getting layed off at Broadcom and have thoughts if I join Crowdstrike will lose on initial two year stocks. #broadcom #vmware #crowdstrike
Senior MTS at Broadcom?
Was SMTS in VMware now ICB4 in Broadcom
I am guessing senior at Crowdstrike? Seniors can get more than 1C at Crowdstrike, not sure if recruiter is taking advantage of you.
Join Crowdstrike. Multiple things. Post Symantec/CB integration survival would be tougher. Crowdstrike is remote first. If you think you will survive the wave and ready for the roller coaster ride then Broadcom will make you rich.
How much hike and yearly refresher does Broadcom give ?
Also do you have any idea what is the strategy behind whom to layoff ? I know there are various factors involved but if you know have any insight on what it could be, for example who has the high chance of getting layed off ICB 4 or ICB 5 ?
Why do you want to accept a low pay.. Stay at BC and keep looking till you get 1.1 to 1.2 cr.. I will accept lower pay only if my manager informs or somehow i am sure that i will be laid off.. I know bc is worst ..just keep looking out... I had rejected salesforce offer as they have low balled me too much... All the very best
Thank you 👍
Sure
Crowdstrike is market leader and doing well, depends on what you want
You will be rich in broadcom.. For everything else.. Look elsewhere

How's job security at Broadcom? I would base my decision on that.
Job security is 50%-50% as they have already done one round of layoffs and based on their previous acquisition I think there will be more such rounds. BTW when and how the increment cycle is at CrowdStrike ? Do they give refreshers RSU ? If yes can you give some range ?
You missed the increment cycle, it's in feb-march. Based on your response, I'd leave vmware regardless of what Crowdstrike offers. Some people get refreshes, others don't, and it's not a lot (although they went up a lot with stock). Expect 60-75k over 4 years, not sure about India.
