Taking Care of Our People

To complement the industry's broadest product portfolio and an equally impressive intellectual property portfolio, Broadcom offers an extensive and progressive portfolio of employee benefits.

The Broadcom Benefits Package includes a variety of flexible options to allow our uniquely talented people to customize their coverage to meet their individual needs. All regular, full-time employees are eligible, and coverage begins on day one. Benefits may vary by country and location.

Broadcom provides comprehensive health care coverage for you, your spouse, your domestic partner and your unmarried children who are under age 19. In addition to an excellent PPO plan through Aetna, employees in most locations can also choose Aetna HMO coverage, and, in California, employees can choose HMO coverage through Kaiser Permanente.

HMO and PPO plans through BlueCross BlueShield of Massachusetts are also offered to those residing in various New England states.

Dental Care

Our Aetna PPO dental plan provides comprehensive coverage and the freedom to choose your dentist and/or orthodontist. Preventive dental services are covered 100% through this plan. Orthodontia services for both adults and children are also provided.

Vision Care

Broadcom's benefits include comprehensive vision coverage provided through Vision Service Plan (VSP), the nation's largest provider of eye care coverage. VSP coverage helps pay for eye examinations, lenses and frames.

Broadcom pays for Group Life and Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) insurance coverage. You also have the option to purchase additional voluntary Group Life and Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) insurance coverage.

Disability Programs

Broadcom pays for Short and Long Term Disability through UnumProvident. If you become ill or injured and are unable to work, these benefits provide income protection for both shorter absences and longer periods of disability.

We offer several flexible spending accounts, including a Health Care Reimbursement Account and a Dependent Care Reimbursement Account.

401(k) Savings Plan

With Broadcom's 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan through Fidelity Investments, you have a variety of investment options. Contributions can be made to a pre-tax 401(k) or an after-tax Roth 401(k), with matching contributions from the Company. You can enroll at any time, and can defer up to 60% of your salary, up to the IRS annual maximums.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP)

This plan enables Broadcom employees to purchase company stock at below market price. The ESPP also offers potential gain above the market price on the stock purchase dates.

Employees can designate up to two checking accounts and one savings account for direct deposit of paychecks.

Credit Union

Western Federal Credit Union and Key Point Credit Union offer a variety of options for checking accounts, savings accounts, individual retirement accounts (IRAs), loans and investment assistance.
