Ethical Profile

Mixed.

Rally Software Development Corp. (now Broadcom) presents a mixed ethical picture. The company garnered "Best Place to Work" awards and positive Glassdoor reviews (3.7/5 overall, 87% CEO approval), though specific pay equity data is scarce. Environmentally, Broadcom reported a 34% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions from 2021, and Rally-managed media supply chains have been carbon-neutral since 2021. Rally was also a "Best for the World" B Corp in 2012. In tech security, Rally boasts ISO, SOC, GDPR, and HIPAA compliance, with data encrypted. However, a critical vulnerability was reported in 2021, and multi-factor authentication covers only 50-60% of services.
