Desventajas
Pre-takeover statements that no major changes in organization or personnel expected, and that benefits would improve or be no worse than pre-Avago, all lies. Major organizational changes, many layoffs company wide, and virtually every benefit has been cut (sabbaticals, vacation, reward programs, and lately vacation annual accrual and caps were cut with many people losing days to a week or more of vacation). We had among the best medical benefits in the industry; everyone is expecting the worst. The oft-repeated promise that all benefits would remain the same for a year after the acquisition was broken in the first month.
