Refreshers targeted to 90% of base+bonus.

VMware gN6hm OP Oct 26, 2023

Thank you. Is this flat or vary based on performance?

VMware ECukAd Oct 26, 2023

Annual refreshes, 4 year vesting?

VMware bembhgdv Oct 26, 2023

Does Brcm have pip culture , performance reviews ?

Broadcom Ltd. lEzF03 Oct 26, 2023

No pip, just straight layoffs

Yoe? Free upgrade from 370->510 just by acquisition. Congrats.

VMware gN6hm OP Oct 26, 2023

20+ yoe. I wouldn’t say it is free, but thanks anyway!

1. Are we certain that the acquisition will go through? 2. ICB6 is golden in Broadcom. 500 shares refresher when the stock price was $600 last year.

VMware bc_ready Oct 26, 2023

What about icb7?

VMware avgdawg87 Oct 27, 2023

I am a petty ICB4…what about me ? Do we get refreshers ?

VMware rtrti Oct 26, 2023

Is this for hardware division or software also gets this refreshers

Broadcom Ltd. rnd_dude Oct 28, 2023

Both gets it.

VMware rkfE53 Oct 26, 2023

I cannot wait for these RSUs to start stacking up...

Broadcom Ltd. dKzX85 Oct 26, 2023

VMware does not have such RSU structure?

VMware rkfE53 Oct 26, 2023

I've only been here about 18 months. My refresh was $20,000 over 4 years...

VMware JsUndefine Oct 26, 2023

VMW never gave good refreshers. This acquisition in a way it’s good. Can someone from BCOM confirm the average refreshers every year and vesting schedule?

Broadcom Ltd. rnd_dude Oct 28, 2023

Like someone said ~90% of your base + bonus yearly. Sometimes the company gives you multi-year grant. Then , your refresh amount is fixed for next year or more. Multi year grant give advantage to employees if stock price keep going up. Our CEO is an engineer. He looks after us :)
