String split in 2 arrays

I want to split the following string into 2 arrays.

First array from the beginning to '/' and the second from '/' to end.

Also, I've tryied with replace to remove the '/' but returns error.

var str = 'word1-word2/word3+word4'.replace(/\+|/|-/g,' ');

The wanted output should be like:

var arr1 = ['word1', 'word2'];
var arr2 = ['word3', 'word4'];

this way you get an array that contains unlimited of your expected arrays

var arr = 'word1-word2/word3+word4'.split("/");

var res = [];
for(var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++){ 
 str=arr[i].replace(/\+|-/g,' ');
 res.push( str.split(" "));
}
console.log(res)

console output

[["word1", "word2"], ["word3", "word4"]]

Here you go. Split on / first and then on the respective separators.

var arr = 'word1-word2/word3+word4'.split('/'), 
    arr1 = arr[0].split(/[+-]/),
    arr2 = arr[1].split(/[+-]/);
